I don't think he is fast, from what I have seen - I know he's fast. His acceleration is awesome.

| Gerry's acceleration and power is phenomenal but his flat out speed isnt great - better than many wingers that lack his other atributes.
George's pace seems better to me
But hats off to Eorl and Larne for sheer pace over distance - how many wingers had Eorl caught on the turn this season!!

| Been told this morning all 3 players are all signed up 100% for next year whether mason stays or goes.
If O Donnell stays and can get fit we are going to have a really good pack next year...the more i think about it the more i can't see Mason in the team at all
Eorl and Kopczak starting props?
Patrick/Mullally/Ta'ai for bench prop spots
O donnell/chan/ferguson/ferres/fairbank/lawrence/faiumu for 2nd row/loose
Cant see Mason in the team at all im afraid

| Given gale and kopczak are under contract at bradford next year would assume their signings are dependent on us losing SL status. I know SLE told our players they could talk to other clubs this week but that was dependent on The administrator accepting the SLE bid which he hasnt done yet. time will tell.

I have! I remember when he made that break and went round Tomkins like he wasn't there!

RL clubs rarely pay up a player over long periods. It does not make sense.
Paying up for 2 or 3 years means a large lump sum payment in year 1. The clubs gains stuff all as the payment is still part of the cap. If you have to pay the guy then play him in the 20s for 2 years - at least he fills a shirt there. And if he b***ers about he can then be sacked.
However players may move on because other clubs put a premium on their skills. A good jobbing back on £50K a year for 2 years at one club may be valued at £70K x 3 years elsewhere. A 100k versus £210K is a no brainer.
Quality players often have these pressures and with short careers to manage and families to provide for it is challenging.

BOTH gale and Kopczak have signed,
& once new bidder buys bulls it will be under a new company agreement
Which means they are free agents as their current contracts would not longer stand
