Can I just suggest letting Donno have a go? Most Bull fans may think I'm talking , but those of you who follow the reserves/academy have probably seen more of his game than others. I've watched James since his nappy was dragging thro' the mud and there's far more to his game than he's shown so far.


Just a thought I'll get me coat!

I note people mention his on-field abilities but off-field baggage. He may have had abilities 5 years ago but I haven't seen him be anything other than a waste of cap space every time I've seen him play since his days at Hull.

There are more with pace I agree, but off the top of my head some 6's that have not had "blistering" pace include Harris, Henry Paul, Cooke, Ratchford and Tommy Martyn. Some of these were greats and had more pace when younger and are not comparable yet playing wise, but I don't know just how Donaldson would compare pace wise, but all I'm saying its not the be all and end all....would help mind.

The natural progression is from 6 to a 13 (unless you play for GB when it's the reverse). IMO Kearney would be a massively better SO with Royston at FB.

Not in a million years.

What does it say to our youngsters if we go and sign Cooke? I suppose the same can be said when the club brings in Aussie imports. Still, no thanks.
