Reiss is rumoured to be leaving the club and joining Castleford, with James Green coming the other way.
Can’t say I’d blame the lad. Hasn’t had a fair crack of the whip in my opinion.

That would be a real gut wrencher. Can't understand why he's not had more game time this year.

He signed a 3 year contract, if we just end up with James Green as part of the deal, then it's a steal by Cas.

Wasn't getting a sniff with us, yet went out on loan and played for Batley and now signs for Cas....

Whatever Powell and Diskin see in him obviously wasn't being appreciated by Kear!

To be fair weren't Batley crippled by injury and Cas will see him as potential. Arguably we haven't got time to wait for potential, we need players to guarantee promotion this year and then what? Go for Top 4 of championship next year?

Maybe Kear thinks we need to strengthen the side at prop and this was a way to do it by letting Reece go. Just watched Greens highlights on YouTube and I think he might be a good recruit.

Well he's gone and it is a bit disappointing but it's not a tragedy like some drama queens on social media are making out.

We certainly do need another prop, especially if we go up.

The phrase politically correct is in itself politcally incorrect so should be rephrased politically stupid! If you like old type radio comedy/ dramas etc listen to //pumpkinfm.com/ Statistically speaking you have a better chance of getting dead the older you get!

Its naive for folk to think we will keep all our perceived better Academy Players whether or not we are in L1 Ch or SL.

Reiss has been on the cusp but also we did not miss him when the position arose and he couldn't fill it and as Sam has said we needed a prop and it just a bit of common sense business by JK!

It's also the reality of the Bull starting from scratch financially!

Well I hope JK knows what he is doing, because I think our side is crying out for a decent hooker even now. If we do go up it will be crucial than we sign someone to play 9.
I was hoping Butterworth would end up being that player so to see him leave is very disappointing.

Hallas cannot be a hooking option next year, he isn't good enough. Flanagan is decent but he's getting on a bit. Vila has improved a lot since JK came in but realistically is a bottom half championship player. He's not top half or potential SL quality.

What's coming through behind Reiss?

With a season from Flanagan on 2019 what's on the radar for 2020 and is it better than Butterworth? I can't see us doing anything other than consolidating a Ch place next year if we are promoted?

Maybe Kear is looking longer term than we are?

Green will do well at this level but will just be steady at Championship level. I believe Fax couldnt meet his wage demands.

The more he talked of his honour,the faster we counted our spoons.:



Cherry picking of our best young players will continue until such time as we are back at SL level.I watched Trueman tear Leeds apart at the weekend and it hit home how much the past shambolic management have cost this great club and fans.We should have had many years of watching these players in BULLS colours against top sides.That's the real crime here.

100% spot on.

So did I!! Went to Cas expecting a good game and got one.

Like you, exact same thoughts as Trueman took Leeds apart more than once.

As you say, we continue to pay for the mistakes in the past.

Extremely frustrating and the presence of a certain agent up there is doing us no favours whatsoever, and of course he takes a nice slice of the cake.

I fear we will lose some more of our promising youth this coming close season.

Green has looked promising for us when he's been given the rare opportunity but we have at least 6 props ahead of him. Should go very well for you.

To be honest, we are where we are. There is nothing we can do but fight our way out of it and try to get back at the top table and if Kear needs to cut and deal to achieve that, then it's fine by me.

If young players leave, then they leave, they have a short career in RL and I don't blame them one iota for maximising the earnings potential that they've got, so if we gain another player (or two) to compensate for our loss then I'll call that a win. In our situation we need to play a longish game and not expect everything to fall into place tomorrow.
