Unfortunately it was a simple matter of economics for Rhys -- although not extravagant in his personal life he found it totally impossible to rent a home in London and support a wife and two small children. There was never any money left to spare after paying for rent and "no frills" food for the four of them. He looked at lots of ways to supplement his Broncos salary but was getting deeper into debt and had no choice but to leave the capital. Rhys enjoyed his time with the Broncos he has nothing but the highest praise for Andrew Henderson, admiration and pride in his former team mates and fondness for the Team's fans.

Economics of southern living which has been mentioned as a barrier to the Broncos success time after time.

We all know the biggest barrier to Broncos success.

I'm just not allowed to mention him directly.

It seems an odd time of the season to make a decision like this.
Bradford seem to be collecting ex London players.

Its worked fro Cas!!

It's the reason Paul sykes left us a few years backed, he took a pay drop when he went back up north to Bradford, but he was not commuting and having to pay London living.
Is he looking to play for anyone else? Could be a mix of the money and the injury last year.

Disappointed he chose to play for Bradford, and will presumably playing against us later in the season, I would have thought he'd get a gig with Huddersfield at least.

Disappointing with him going to the Bulls. Although only at the club for a short time, on the pitch he seemed one of the most committed players I've seen at the club in the last decade, so you can't begrudge him going back to what he knows.

Will free up money on the cap and we can spend that if and when we like, or more accurately if Hendo and David Hughes see someone of value. I think we will keep our powder dry and wait for someone who will commit properly, else bring in loanees who will do a job for a patch while the likes of Cunningham are out.

Rhys got a two year deal in the end at Bradford. Does leave a bad taste though

Quite agree. The way he did this was a poor show.

Suddenly decided he couldn't afford to live in London the day his concussion ban ended
