All you Bradford fans will be put out of your misery tomorrow.

That's the day it will be made official by Souths on their website.

You've obviously not met Eddie.

If he goes, which looks pretty likely now, it will be interesting to see who we go for.

Lets be honest, most SL clubs revenues will be down due to the current financial climate and should make it easier to go for a player or two. Im not sure it will be a direct Burgess replacement though.

For mine, it depends where Glenn Hall is playing. If he's playing back row, we definitely need another prop. If he's playing prop, perhaps a back rower. Either way, I think it is a replacement for whichever position Burgess was planned on being played in next year.

Paul King it is then

I suppose it depends, for example we could bring say moi moi in on a free, but then spend on a half.

One thing is for certain, its going to be an interesting off season

And he'd be free I imagine...... but still not what we want.

No it won't. The Bulls say that as of this afternoon they haven't even heard from Souths. So unless they are lying, and I have no reason to believe they are, the only way there will be anything official tomorrow is if between now and then there is a Bulls-Souths signed deal involving the payment of a large amount of spondoolicks.

As Hood says, Sam can sign as many Aus contracts as he wants, it makes no odds.

I wouldn't have King given. If he can't put his heart in his hometown club what hope is there for his pension funders?

Yes Peter Hood always tells the truth does he. Next you will be telling us Maccas a great coach oh hang on you do.
