| Looking at players who might be available, kopzcak keeps getting thrown about, personally think he'd be a great signing and with JK his international coach think it could swing it in our favour

| He does, and would be an ideal signing.
Unfortunately, he is contracted to Salford, so would be unlikely to happen.

| It is mentioned on the Rugby League 18th man website this morning that we are linked to Kopzcak.
Warrington are also in the running

That's your problem with Kopzcak, he's good enough to get in any SL team, he's British and a lot of teams need his kind of player.
Even if he were free I think he might end up in a bidding war we couldn't win. But hey who knows I'd love it if we signed him.

Did Bradford deserve honourable treatment as they were basically trading falsely at the time?

I bet RL 18th man got that info from this thread mate, forums is where they got most od their rumors.
Seriously though if he's in contract, Salford will be looking for a fee. That would rule us out and Wire in, seen as they are splashing the cash left right and atm and also have meant to have signed BMM from them.

Wasn't the Kopczak deal the one where Shudds tried to stitch up Keith Mason to make room for him, and ended up shelling out a few hundred grand for unfair dismissal?
I seem to recall that it had something to do with Mad Monday, a mobile phone, and a picture of Mason's rusty bullethole?

| So League express write up this week says the Pauli Pauli deal is back on, and we are in talks over a deal. Also mentioned that we offered Jamie Ellis a contract before he joined Cas - So does look like we are actively on the look out for a half as well as a Prop.

Interesting. Wonder if the likes of Randall, who he'd know fairly well have spoken to him, plus a few others that may know him and given the lad some advice, that maybe a move here could realy put his career back on . Maybe he just needed time to think it through, that's if it comes off mind.
On Ellis I'm not sure what to think tbh. Obviously Cas think highly enough of him and have an idea what they want from him to sign him up. In our case with already having Finn and Miller, plus having Randall and Wood who both can play 80 mins at hooker and both also can play in the halves if needed . Maybe the team thought we needed someone to take Williams place who wasn't as expensive & especially if a half breaks his leg like Miller did last season, we'd need some decent cover there. Also I haven't enough insight into the up and comers like Akroyd and his development to suggest he'd surely be the back up, so maybe we are still looking for a back up half.

I would imagine that we've signed Tom Schofield to be back up along with Ackroyd.

| You could be right there Jakey, though is Schofield any more ready than Ackroyd.
Looking at other squads there isnt many British players available that are off contract. The only players who are who I dont think are tied in are Ridyard and NcNally. The first has been linked to us in the past, but I feel the latter has lost his way a little.
One player off contract never previously mentioned, was Thomas Leuluai, but he would take up a quota spot.

He'd also take a lot of cap spend.
Leuluai will be out of our budget.
As you say, there is a desperate shortage of Halves/Hookers and this is magnified if you want a British player, just look at the England squad, Brown should be nowhere near an England spot ![Embarassed icon_surprised.gifops:](images/smilies//icon_redface.gif)
