You can add in to his faults that he is a biter. During the Quins/Wakey game(the one he got kicked out of the Wakey for drinking) he bit Chad Randell on the arm!!

Not only have you got a fat lazy player youve also got a coward-Its a pity he hasn't followed Smith the other biter into Union.

Why?

Sculthorpe has been p!ss poor all his career. He is a one trick pony with his Solomona-esque offloads and is generally an ill-disciplined waste of time.

Better coaches than McNamara have failed to change this and at 30 he is unlikely now to be able to change.

People know what they are getting with Sculthorpe, hence the level of vitriol this signing will cause.

Or do you think that by pulling on a Bulls shirt next season he can suddenly turn into a top drawer player that he has been unable to do at any time before in his career?

Who were you supporting?

Dire.
Unbelievable.

Is this it then? This is the extent of out ambitions now. A player with an assault conviction not wanted by any other club and a useless waste of space with disciplinary issues not wanted by any other club.

I'm overjoyed obviously.

So would someone at the Bulls like to inform us where the £200K has gone? I guess we will never know.

Because like it or not he is now our player?

I think the very least 'supporters' can now do is just give him a chance to do a job for us. He won't replace Sam Burgess not even close but he isn't a NL standard either. I think it is fair to say that very very few fans are 'impressed' by this signing but at least try to understand why we may have signed him.

So there we have it, then. The definitive assessment.

I admitted to being distinctly underwhelmed and a bit puzzled by the signing. However, I took maybe a little heart from discovering that not everyone shares your view. These guys from the VT, for example



[i(only a fool would assume he was, and the club has certainly not said he is nor did MJ imply that)[/i







Shame that those guys don't know as much as you do, so their opinions may be safely discounted.

Aye, I forgot. He plays with us now so he must be suddenly good.

So he is an "ok" player? Good good. I feel so much better now.

So where has the £200K gone? Into the first team? It doesn't look like it.

Not quite, don't think anyone is saying that, but maybe, whatever we all think we can support a player who pulls on our shirt and then judge him on the performances and effort he puts in or not whilst wearing our shirt?

As I've said, I'm underwhelmed to say the least. but I'm going to see how he goes in our squad wearing our shirt before I disregard him as a failure, I hope he proves a lot of people wrong.

Each to their own mind, and I suspect peoples views we're all entitled to express will stay where they are today until we see him and the new squad play......

...could be a long off season.

nice to see that you bulls have found a ready replacement for sam,and without having to use your huge windfall that hood said that you were gonna spend
hood is taking the mickey out of you lot imo,replacing a world class player in burgess with him?

A bit of balance never does any harm, wouldn't you say? And indeed, that was why I included the post you referred to - in the interests of balance. I can understand you being puzzled though since the concept of balance is probably a bit new to you.



Think you must be confusing me with someone else. I already made my initial thoughts on this signing quite clear.



That is the posting you should have made in the first place, is it not?

Your second point - indeed. But my post was about fans' reactions to Danny Sculthorpe the player. Not about whether the club could or should have made a "better" signing.

It does seriously look like now that we are doing things on the cheap contrary to what we've been told. Do the club expect these signings to attract back the floating fans.
