Connor says 'an announcement' - he normally says signing if it is one, doesn't he?

When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_8.jpg |

I think Orford returning counts as a left field announcement.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid!
If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/
Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!
Thank god only when you find a religion that passes the truth test!:13554.jpg |

Thats a disengenuous post! I heard Ryan stating on the 4pm sports news that "......they expect Orford to return to training in November!" basically he was saying the same as was said at the Fans Forum! I think its just the first public shot from the Bulls to Orfords camp and its now up to him to come out and publically state otherwise!
Now listened to the I player it gives out more succint information that the 4pm edition did. this does give a more positive spin so not disengenuous as I first thought!

Well, it certainly sounds promising.

I can't see a player who is under contract and has never stated in public that he wants to leave being announced as a left field signing.
It would be nice to have a signing who is recognised class rather than being 'left field'! Left field to me says that it's a player who could potentially be good rather that is guaranteed to be good!

Left-field signings have included Robbie Paul, Paul Anderson and Mick Withers. Signings who were 'recognised class' have included Shaun Edwards, David Solomona and, erm, Matt Orford. [sizeYes, I know I'm being selective.[/size |

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel.
Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg |

It's Worrincey being signed on a 5 year. However, I think Worrincey is more of a left out than left field type of player

To me it says a signing that no-one expected. "Coming out of left field..." - not expected or prepared for.
So Greg Inglis it is, then. |

this ones for adey.i take it you are the adey on the t&a forum.if not my apologies.you seem to be forgetting one thing about glenn morrisons similar situation when injured saying that orford couldnt wait to get away.morrison had a wife and two kids over here to be around him as he recuperated.orford is a single guy and therefore chose to return back to oz to be with his family.personally i dont have a problem with that and lets not forget that the last actual quote attributed to orford on this matter was exactly the same as we have heard today.now im not naive enough to think that theres no substance to any of the rumours floating round oz but if he does return as he says he will then lets get behind him and the rest of the team (including worrincy and hall) and push this mighty club forward again
