| One of the best players in the world.
Serious question. Why would he come to a team on the decline?

Nothing trolling about it.
What can the Bulls offer him apart from lots of money.
Like i say he is one of the best players in the world. He will want to win things, not just come over at the end of his career and get one last pay day.

How is he trolling? It is a fair and accurate point.

As you say we should be able to offer him lots of money. That's the main reason players move. I don't think John's expected to win anything going to Warrington but he came half way round the world for the money.

Because it's Guess Who, whose apparent hatred for Bradford has been evident for a long time. Pretty much every comment on here from him is anti-Bradford (if not every single one) and always has been.

| As i have said it wasn't a trolling question.
The one thing that is obvious, is no one can tell me what the Bulls can offer,
apart from a big pay day.
That in itself, says a hell of a lot about the things that are going on at the Bulls.
Shame some of you, try to make me out to be anti Bulls, just for asking a straight forward question.
I take from some of the replies i have touched a nerve.

I may be wrong on thins, but didn't he come over for a few games?
If i am right and he did, then it wasn't like he was going to play for them for a while.
Fuifui Moimoi wouldn't be coming for a few games would he.

He's not wrong though is he, "Guess Who"? At least AJ tends to be a tad more objective. I took your original comment not as trolling, but instead taking an opportunity to have a go at Bradford again, based on track record. Shame, cos all that achieves is to further widen the divide that guys like you so bitterly complain about?
But in your original post, you asked the question "Why would he come to a team on the decline?" OK, good question. But the question that would first need to be answered is "Is Bradford a team on the decline"? The recent past would suggest it is. Will that trend continue? Or will it be stabilised then reversed going forward? I submit that most people are hopeful of the latter (even if that could well remove the remove the reason for existence of some posters on here ).
And if a prospective player was persuaded likewise, and felt he could have a fair bit to do with the renaissance, then you have gone a long way towards answering your question, have you not?

| I don't really think the current state of the club will really come into it. If he is going to leave Parra, a team on the up, where the majority of his friends are, the climate etc. he is going to be doing it for $$$
So whether it be Celtic or Leeds who were to offer the most, they would get him. The only other way the club will come into it is if 2 clubs offer the same money.

I would like you, or anyone else to show me the posts, i have made having ago at Bradford.
I ask questions on here and give a straight answer to questions asked of me.
The trouble with the internet, is its very easy for people to read into what they want to read into it. Instead of reading what the op has put.

I mentioned that the Bulls were in decline, because looking in from the outside it would appear they are.
I see the team finished outside the play off's for the first time.
I see fans on here, (Bulls fans) moaning about falling crowds, the team not being good enough.
I see the days of signing world class players have gone. I was wondering why a world class player would want to come to the Bulls (apart from money).

I didnt want to answer my question, if i did i wouldnt have needed to ask it would i
I wanted to see what the Bulls fans think, of the current situation they are in.
Just a shame some have decided to have ago at me, because i am a Cougar fan. Instead of answering the question.

Ah, I see. You've never heard of Menzies. It's understandable, I suppose, living in the sticks.
Whilst we have made some excellent signings over the years, to demand a constant stream of "world class" signings 'like it used to be' (but never actually was), and then use your own straw man to slag the Bulls off, is pretty dotty, when you think about it.
