The only think I'm worried about is the 3 year deal. I hope he can play well till 34, as that is pretty old for a Scrum half. Ah well, if he's owt like Menzies he'll still be going strong.

Form is temporary, class is permanent. (Only applies to scrum halves). |

The big added bonus about this signing - if the follow-on with Deacs also proves correct - is that we'll see the end of Hari Bari and Gari. Some of our regulars will have to dust off some different alter-egos now!

Great addition to what looks like a strong squad for next season. The only way the board were going to replace a fan favourite like Sam was to sign a star player and there aint many better than Orford.
Hes a great scrum half and a proven leader. My only doubt is how 4 Overseas players will settle in, in a new enviroment.
Definetly glad i got a season ticket now!

Well given 3 of them are from the same team, two of them are best mates and they're joining another ex-team mate who has obviously been instrumental in them all coming, I can't imagine it will too hard.
What with that and the marked similarity between manly in the summer and the environs of Bradford in the winter I'm sure they'll love it 
Seriously though, an Ox is only a castrated Bull, once he's got his balls back at Bradford the sky will be our oyster, if that's not mixing my metaphors... |

By far the most sensible posts on this thread have come from mystic eddie. - copyright Ewwenorfolk 09.04.2013
Aye, and Eddie is hinting at it too. And, as we all know:

The only negative I can find is that there is nothing to be negative about in this deal. |

So given all the new signings what should your 17 look like for next year? I guess Orford will be playing alongside Sykes now Jeffries has gone?

Other than the fact he's an Aussie, he is allegedly costing a fortune and he's the wrong side of 30 ...
