Think they’re all signed to 2 years other than Boothroyd so it looks exactly like we’ve not left room. That said I’m happy with the look of all our imports so far and I’m looking forward to seeing Bain who looks more of a ball handling 13 with good hands. His style reminds me of Westerman. Watching reserves he was moving up to the line and passing like Westerman does.

There is a very easy way round this, we just aren't used to it because we have never had the cash or the players in the past.

Considering Bain and especially Boothroyd are unlikely to see that much action this season, then why not put them out on a season long loan next year to a decent Championship team. That way you free up two quota spots, still keep them on board and developing, and still have them available in an emergency, one that means you have been able to de-register a player.

Think that works

I certainly don't remember Isaiah playing junior rugby with us at Bradford. His Dad finished playing for us in 2008 when Isaiah was seven years old and the family went home. According all the online records he played NSW Cup for the Warriors in 2020 and Jersey Flegg in 2018 (when he was 17) and there's no other records of him playing anywhere else.

Maybe he's using his Dad's records
