Or merge with Keighley...

I'm told Rhinos made an offer to buy out the remainder of Mellors contract with Bulls last month but got turned down, might be worth another phonecall in light of this? Definitely strikes me as one of their better players.

Heard the same. Believe that we will go back in for him now, especially who his agent is, same goes with Adam O'Brien, another face Leeds monitor

Lawkholme Ln is just about big enough for the current level of support for the Bulls

Bradford Bulls have been expelled by the RFL. Championship license revoked at this moment in time so currently they are not a rugby league club.

This surely means the player contracts are null and void making them free agents?

TBF they are only expelled until someone buys their share then they'll be re-admitted.

Terrible.

The moment that they fail to pay the players they become free agents as their contracts have been broken.

The issue with the players isn't really their contracts, its their registration. Those registrations have (theoretical) value to the administrator.

How do you sell the registration of a player that you've broken the contract with? I get what you are saying and that normally underpins a transfer (you are buying the registration of the player) but it can't apply in the case of a broken contract. Let's hope th Bulls have appointed better administrators his time than they did in the past, where they appeared to be little more than vultures picking over a carcass...

How long before RFL promote Toronto in Bradford's place???

Makes sense. Toronto in Championship 1 is ridiculous.

Toronto in any division is ridiculous

Why? They currently have recruited a team,nothing more.

Oh. The. Irony.
