On the subject of alex brown I see that he isn’t now on the squad page on the website. Number 20 has been taken out for some reason

I thought it strange he didn't get a run out v Keighley in reserves but put it down to work or slight injury? Interesting to see how the reserves works, will they always play Weds night because if they train Tues and Thurs and play Weds then work could get in the way for some of them

Whilst I agree that does suggest he may have quietly left, I would also point out there have been fixtures missing off the website for months too but it doesn't mean the games won't happen.

Sounds like it hasn't worked out with Brown to me. I'll take him off our squad list.

Brown has left Bulls and also stopped playing RL.

Anyone know why? In a way I'm pleased. Means Ryan and Grant will get the bulk of game time and at this level I'd like to see Rickett get a few games if injuries occur or we need to rest Ryan/Grant.

Ah, but have they heard the one about 'the little black dot' though.

Personally I think we need another winger then, rickett looked out of his depth against cougars in joe Phillips memorial. Though I grant you he looked better in the reserves.

Ross Oakes has played there before. With him not being first choice centre at the moment, there's every chance he'd fill the place, maybe even before Rickett.

I'm sure they touted Goodall as a forward that plays on the wing too, although I may have dreamed that.

I don't think Oakes or Goodall are quick enough for wing.

I don't either if I'm honest, but Oakes has played there in one of the friendlies and Goodall was touted, which suggests Kear thinks they're at least options, albeit not necessarily good ones.

Never in my life see Goodall as a wingman.

Wasn't the mention of Goodall on wing before Kear arrived so not necessarily how Kear sees him. Think the loan guy from toronto is probably immediate option to give us some cover. Could Gibson fill in on wing at a pinch with Oakes/toronto guy coming in at ?
