Kearney

Lynch
L'estrange

And Manly were quite happy giving him a two year deal. By that logic hes got 4 years in SL.

Nothing wrong with having some experience bearing in mind the rest of the squad (apart from Menzies) is pretty young.

Indeed.

We must be worrying the opposition fans a bit, given how they are all so keen to deride this signing? Or, maybe, we've hacked them off because this inconvenient truth of a signing shatters their perceptions about the terminal decline of Bradford? Either way...are we bovvered?

Deacon officially signed for Wigan according to the T&A - hardly a surprise but now seems to be confirmed.

Red Amber and Black Fantasy Rugby League Champion 2012. 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: Mystic Eddie has been right all along! - copyright vbfg 05.01.2017:Others/combustable.gif

Not Sykes in the centres, his defence isn't up to it I might give him a go alongside Orford in the halves, with Kearney at fullback and Halley on the wing.

Kearney
Halley
Platt
Nero
Reardon
Sykes

Quote: Jimmybull "Saints Squad'"


I still think they'll be up there, but 3 or 4 injuries to that squad and they could be in trouble. (I don't know how good the kids they've got coming through are though!)

Quote: Wigan Chairman, Ian Lenagan "I would like to thank the Bradford Club for their thoughtfulness and concern for Paul in allowing him take up this Coaching career opportunity with his home-town club. He has been a great servant to the Bulls and we are grateful that they have shown the appreciation of his service by allowing him to move to Wigan. '"


Interesting choice of words there.
