Very good signing he may not be there for long but he will make a big difference.

Class player.

£280,000 per year for three years is a lot for a 32 year old player.

He is class though am looking forward to seeing him plus Bradford will have alot of cap space I would think due to Burgess and Deacon an others moving on.

Quote: sally cinnamon "There will always be the doubters. Plenty doubted our claims that Monaghan was going to be the lead scrum half in SL when he came over, but who got the last Lance Todd laugh...?'"


Did Warrington win the Challenge Cup or something? Just because he won the Lance Todd it doesnt make him the best SH in SL. I think th SH for both the Grand Final teams would have something to say about that

We, more than most clubs fans should be aware that these figures are often vastly inflated and wholely inaccurate.

He's a quality signing, one that for me, makes Bradford watchable again and I look forward to seeing how he goes there. He's not really got that stunning a backline running off him, but he'll get good go forward from their pack i'd imagine.

Really? I can't say I honestly saw Sean Long and Rob Burrow light up Old Trafford on Grand Final night.

I did see Michael Monaghan light up Wembley stadium on Challenge Cup Final afternoon though.

Remember that often in the media these figures are inflated, and, tbh, if he plays well, I couldn't care less if he was on 1/2 of our cap.

I'm looking forward to 2010 now. icon_biggrin.gif

I wish these forums had been around in the early 1990s.

Can you imagine what would have been said when we signed Davies...."good player in his day but past his best and paying that sort of money for a 31 year old is ridiculous..."

No need to go that far back. Wasn't a 29 years old Adrian Morley, burnt out and coming home for an easy life?

Great player, not too sure if its a great signing.

Quite comparable to our Langer signing...Bringing in a top scrum half, but surrounded pretty much by mediocrity.

Always get the feeling with signings like this that it is more about pleasing the fans, and selling slow moving season tickets.... icon_cool.gif

The problem with Morley was the four year deal. Most clubs offered him a two year deal because they knew, that after 2008 he would be long past it. We were the only mugs who would let ourselves be roped into paying his wages in 2009, he couldn't even lift the Challenge Cup on his own he needed Briers to help.

Quote: Matt Orford (on the BBC report) said not "
I always wanted to finish my career in England - this opportunity came earlier than expected but the chance to play with good friends at a club which is on the rise accelerated my decision
'"


If Bradford is a club 'on the rise' then I guess Huddersfield and Hull KR are somewhere approaching Jupiter!

That quote could have been taken from Langer when he signed for us, with his mate Andrew Gee.

Sorry to be cynical, but the Orford move smells of a man purely looking for cash.
