Gaskell is the one that triggered the topic, saying he wanted to stay. with an average gain of 9 metres per carry thats the best in the squad, plus 11 try assists. Danny Williams has the same average carry, so if he keeps that up then theres two backs that will get us up the pitch. O'Brien has scored 4 tries and three assists and is third in the tackles count. I would like to think that all three of these will be kept.

Yeah some positive news coming through last couple of weeks regarding players wanting to stay. Just hope we can get them signed up. If O'brien and Gaskell signs up that would be really positive news. Sammut was at odsal on Sunday, with Wakey not wanting him and Fev announcing they won't be signing any marquee players, hopefully we can get him snapped up. That would give us a very good 6,7,9

I'd also expect Sidlow, Olbison and maybe Addy or Donaldson to stay on board.

Others we def want to try and keep would be Manoukafoa, Fakir, Henry, Purtell, George, Blythe and Kear IMO Pitts would be useful too.

Would love to see Kearney stay on, maybe captain the side if Diskin retires.

I think you have signed Steve Crossley from Fev.

Thought he was going to Cas? Would be happy with this. Also a HG player.

I'd be happy with that if true. I've mentioned his name on here a few times after I heard he was leaving Fev, but one of your fellow Cas fans seems to think he's heading your way.
Ben Hellewell would be another one I'd be after. Also confirmed to be leaving Fev.

This is an odd thread for me.

There are current players who I think have Championship quality written all over them; Olbison, Walker, Henry. And there are players who'd I genuinely be gutted to see drop down a division and stay with us; Donaldson, Blythe, Kear, Gaskell, maybe Purtell (I think he'd go to Hull KR for some reason).

I obviously think a lot of the high earning overseas lads will leave.

I wouldn't mind seeing Jean Philippe Baile join us... curtain.gif

Karl Pryce, Jarrod Sammut and Shaun Ainscough would be three guys I'd welcome back, two of which have been mentioned earlier.

From what I hear the club are in negotiations with lots of players. Many of this year’s 1st teamers are considering or have decided on deals. I guess we’ll hear more as the weeks go by.

If we can get Sammut and Crossley back then that would be a good start, but I’d be surprised if Sammut couldn’t get a SL team.

I’d be reluctant to take Karl Pryce. He’s not go the right attitude and I suspect he’d drive Lowes to distraction.

Quite a number of our existing squad is SL1 quality – particularly the likes of Addy, Olbison, Donaldson etc. I can’t see them getting that many offers from other SL clubs since they’re average. However they would be useful at SL1 level.

I expect to see more of Roberts, Bates, Mellor, Wood and Conroy next year.

Quote: Greg Florimos Boots "Not sure why people would want Karl Pryce or even Ainscough back. In the games i have seen Ainscough he has looked quite out of sorts and Pryce is probably one of the worst players I have seen at Championship level. I think Bradford should be aiming higher than that.

That said it seems that theres a few Bradford players that are exploring their options with other top end championship clubs as well.'"

Fairdoos, I'll admit I've seen nothing of them in the Championship and it was a case of suggesting a couple of former players I liked who I thought could do a job.

I completely forgot about Walker in my earlier post haha! Yes I imagine he will also stay with us, should be able to do a job in SL2.
I can see your point about some players being too good for the championship, but at the same time I would be gutted to lose the likes of Donno, someone who the club has stood by when he had two season-ending injuries. He seems to me to be quite loyal to the club, just the impression I get. I would hope that such loyalty wouldn't go unnoticed by the club.
Conversely, if Blythe keeps costing us matches with his brain fart offloads, other SL clubs are welcome to him.

Another name I just thought of, could Platt do a job for us next year? We can always use more utility backs!

If Ainscough could get back his fitness levels/standards he set when he was here last time, he'd be good enough for me. And you can't fault the guy's passion for the club, he clearly loved his time here.

It wasn't so much about being too good for the Championship, but the effort and level of performance put in by Donno it'd be a shame for him to be relegted.

Quote: Nothus "Wow, and there's me thinking I was being optimistic!
There is not a hope in hell of us signing anyone of Millard's calibre. Purtell won't stay either I don't think.'"

Oh I know that. It was just the notion of Millard and Baile on one flank would make going to Keighley tolerable!

Think Kearney mentioned in article last week that he wouldn't rule out going down with us. If we could push out boat to retain him and purtell and get sammut back we'd have start of a decent set of backs.
