Someone called this too, can't remember who though

That was me mate.
Page 3 of the NRL threequarter signing thread.

A lucky guess

That forum link makes depressing reading if he is the new signing.

Don't know anything about him though so we'll just have to wait and see.

Thing is he could just be penrith fans current scapegoat. Hard to tell based on one thread. likewise with the video of his errors. If you put together a video specifically showing errors then I'd guess you could make any player look bad. Will reserve judgement until I've seen him play a few times assuming he is the signing.

he should be able to relate to sykes then.

The scapegoat is usually a player who isn't performing. We've had a few scapegoat at the bulls but It's usually someone the fans want to see the back of for a reason. That said, of all the scapegoats at Bradford, nobodies ever gone to the trouble of making a YouTube video of their errors. Must be really loved there.

The errors aren't that bad. He's not got the bounce of the ball that's for sure.

Players are usually a scapegoat for a reason mind. That said, he must be better than a lot of the others available in the NRL as he seems to be playing week in week out.

has connor confirmed or denied this ??

reading that link doesnt sound to good!!

Connor? Neither. He has said it is an Aussie, and should be confirmed within a week or so.

So far, what Connor HAS said fits the bill.

Bulls4champs2010 is currently trying to tweak a bit more out of him by asking if he is "a big unit"? - Purtell certainly is that - 6ft 4 apparently...

Potter has said that this Aussie wont be the last signing, so it looks like he's looking at some British Super League players, who's out of contract over here who could make a difference to our team ? I assume we wont be buying anyone.

Did he say that before or after the crusaders dispensation

Also if Sammut becomes off quota, we can sign two overseas players instead of just the one.

who is ooc over here then that is worthy of a look in ?

I would imagine that if there's more signings to come then they would be forwards. Assuming that we don't resign Walker, Ainscough and Royston that is.
