only rapira out of contract this season? thats might be a bad thing for us, normally see a spike in performances in the final year of contract

gaskell at the time of signing was the most sought after player in the championship, he was outstanding and player of the year a few sl clubs were after him

we got him

then he had the injuries.... dont think the club could have predicted that

Think you are misremembering. He had a good 2015. He wasn't sought after when we signed him. - Gaskell at the time of signing at the end of 2016 had barely played a game for Bradford, rumours on their board was a) he was totally crocked, and b) he was refusing to play.
I liked Gaskell at saints, would have still liked to sign him from Salford- but he chose Bradford over us- when we did finally sign him He certainly wasnt worth paying more than we had ever paid the likes of commited Giants players and internationals like Robinson- and I've not seen anything so far to change my mind about that.

This.

the deal will have been in place a long time before the actual signing was announced to the public.

But not a season before brearley

Looks like a big row between Stones & Brough will culminate in one leaving pretty quickly and I just feel it wont be the Coach. Gary Carter in the `Sun` thinks it will be the Scottish Captain and pretty quickly too.

Yet all this is (made up?) news to his wife, and the club..... again....

I am merely the messenger Jools. I have no opinion on it either way except...............................you need a new Coach.

The Sun? HAHAHAHAHA... the fake news experts.

Danny ate my hamster too!

he played in 2016 too, 14 games.

he played well today in the halves, the guy certainly has some talent

credit stone on the decision to swithc gaskell to the halves today and move darnell to full back
