although in that article;

"Canberra Raiders Chief Executive Don Furner commentsWe’re hopeful Matt can secure a release from Bradford and we can come to terms with him by the end of the week,”

I'll wait until Bradford say so I reckon, looks all but done, but I need to hear it from our end first...we've had enough of dodgy press briefing from down under on this one.

It should be remembered that not only supporters have been sacrificed over this fiasco. Who is to say that Mr Menzies and Mr Morrison would have had to leave had we not been desperate for a quota spot.

menzies is fair enough, but morrison was released long before we even knew orford was available and mainly due to his recurring injury problems rather than a desperate need for his quota spot iirc.

I think a name change for this forum is in order red amber and mushrooms fits more perfectly now.

Agree Mat. As much as I like Menzies I would rather have a young aggresive forward like Elima any day of the week.

Chesnutt?
