Confirmed on twitter. No other club would have this kind of luck

We finally get a quality half in, and he lasts less than a game. Bradford Bulls ladies and gentlemen!

Unbelievable.

You couldn't make it up could you.
Best wishes Chissy - you are going to rip it up in Ch1 next year.

What a hammer blow. Terrible news for Dane and the Bulls. Has any potential recovery time been given yet? I assume that sort of injury is season ending?

I'd feel much more confident about that being correct if the 'news' was on the website and not something on twitter.

Maybe the website bit is going through the spell and fact check stage...

It's on Dane's twitter. I imagine his source is probably correct.

How long did he sign for?
I seem to remember it being for the rest of the season. If so, We may not see him again.

Player of the season.

Yeah exactly. If it had come from some wannabe journo who posts nothing but crap (naming no names), I wouldn't believe it. But Dane himself has said he undergoes knee reconstruction surgery on Monday. It would be unbelievably bad luck if it happened to any other team, but when it's us in the last few years, it's standard practice when it comes to lady luck.

Thinking of the luck we've had last few years and its not even funny. Especially when it comes to half backs.

Sign Gareth O'brien, who then has the best game of his career, Warrington want him back based on that one game and he ends up just being a bit part player anyway leaving us without a half back.

Siejka, started off slow. Then green shoots of potential started to show until breaking ankle. Was never really 100% fit again after that. If he played the full season, i don't think he would have been has bad.

Gaskell - unplayable in 2015, then has his jaw broken in a needless incident. Ok no worries, 1st big game of the important fixtures, wraps himself round the posts. Just didnt have enough time to get fit for the MPG. Again if the fit and firing Gaskell we had for most of 2015 played in that MPG, we would have won IMO.

Chisholm - actually pay a transfer fee for him. Almost transforms the tram single handedly instilling confidence in them all, producing individual brilliance, then gets injured for the season. Not even funny.

According to AC our three top paid player of this season are Chisholm, Pryce and Smith none of whom actually get onto the pitch. As they say: Chances of survival are none and slim and slim has just left town.

I'm still puzzled whilst most of you seem to think that the fortunes of a team dominated up the middle week in week out are going to be changed by signing a halfback, and one at that, who went missing when you needed him to perform last season?

People will cling to anything in these circumstances.

Geoff Toovey hasn't ruled Dane out featuring again this season. The good news is that swelling has significantly reduced to allow the operation to go ahead.

Now that is wishful thinking.
