| There seems to be some confusion as to when his contract runs to. For some reason the bulls press release states it's a two year deal and then mentions him being contracted until 2015. It should have said the end of the 2014 season. Technically those two are the same, but the wrong choice of wording has now resulted in the BBC (and probably others) misinterpreting the dates and stating he is contracted until the end of the 2015 season.
Edit: I've just noticed that the bulls have actually altered their press release to say end of 2014 now

| Glad he's staying. I like to see one half-back providing structured play and one that is off-the-cuff (Dave Watson and Deryk Fox?). With Gale and Sammut it feels like we will have quite a versatile setup that can morph to suit whoever we are playing.

I thought Watson played fullback?

Watson did play in the halves sometimes, but mainly fullback, IIRC. A bit of a Brett Kearney really, though a bit more 'carefree' in his off-field activities, perhaps.

He's contracted until the end 2013, so if he get's the ok from the specialist he'll be playing next season, so far as we know.

Dave 'Ganja' Watson

Correct.
Perhaps his medical confirmation that he will or will not play next season is another reason why some players have not yet been re-signed.

| Very happy with this signing, we can just about field a competitive 17 now  sammut and gale could be an excellent mix of halves if we get a bit of luck injuries for a change.
