Cheers Statto

Left centre?

Would be an excellent signing.

He is a stand off by trade who can cover 1-7 to one degree or another.

Has obvious talent but for some reason hasn't done it for Saints consistently. Started the season as first choice 6 with Browns public backing and support but performed poorly (as well as most others) and lost his place, next thing we all knew he was farmed off to Salford with rumours of 'attitude issues'.

With maturity and the undoubted shock of being dumped at a team like Salford he may push on and become a very good signing for the Bulls , if he does a Charnley aka flops then I suspect his SL career will be very limited there after.

Plenty of incentive to knuckle down and make something of his career then.

Much like his buddy Foster.

Salford had the option to sign him but he wanted to play stand off, with Chase rumoured to be coming he wouldn't have a chance of playing there so opted to leave, there must of been assurances given to Gaskell by Bradford that he'd get his chance at his prefered position next season.

Won't get any assurance with Gale and Sammut in the halfs.

Nobby is a keen admirer of Sammut

Gaskell will be a great signing IMO and will work well with Gale at HB

I'll believe it when I see it, although looking at it we could do with the money... but still, no. Can't see it, he's one of our best players and with it most likely to be the bottom two next season to get relegated I'm sure he's someone FC will want to keep.

I'm all for signing him mind, just not if it's for losing Sammut at stand-off, and I have a feeling it doesn't. He'll be signed as a replacement for Lulia I imagine, maybe move him into the halves once Sammut has moved on.

I don't understand the assumption that Sammut is off just because we are after Gaskell

We need three half backs. I mean how often are both Gale and Sammut actually fit? That's why Danny Addy has played almost every game this season!

Seriously, we don't need Gaskell as a replacement, but as an addition.

Considering how few matches both Sammut and Gale have actually played together over the last two seasons (it's a very low number) I'd say it's inevitable that Gaskell would get a shot at 6 or 7.
Competition for places is healthy. Signing a 6 doesn't automatically mean you're losing your current one!

Perhaps he'd prefer to not play stand-off at Bradford than not play stand-off at Salford.
