Quote: " Meanwhile, Kear is hoping to make another former Great Britain international, Paul Johnson, his seventh signing for 2010.
“We’re talking and we’ve love him to join us. He’s had a medical which was very positive. He will probably be the last piece of the jigsaw.”'"

This bit made me laugh icon_smile.gif

“With the amount of bans I’ve had, I’m like an old car with low mileage. I missed a lot of games early in my career and hopefully that will help me later in life.”

Tury will be the raw power in the first 20 mins of each match, and then just as the defence is about to go into all out retreat he goes off (they breathe a sigh of relief) then on come Latu!!!

What a combo they will be!

Newton is deadwood, when he got injured and it was down to Godwin, we got better and we didn't lose our last 6-7 matches of the season

Kear told BBC Radio Leeds: "If I was going to put a bet on it I'd bet pretty solidly that Paul would be joining us.
The coach added: "I think how things are looking at the moment as long as we can dot the i's and cross the t's it should be a relatively safe bet."

Kear doesn't say this unless he's signed.

I have a lot more faith in Kear as a coach to get the best out off Newton then I do with Mcnamara. Dave Halley is a name that springs to mind!

When you're a Bradford fan there's always a light at the end of the tunnel. Unfortunately it's usually an oncoming train:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_7741.jpg

Perhaps, but just because you've signed him, doesn't mean he's any good.

Last season, Newton was slow, unfit and dis-interested.

If John Kear can spark him up a bit, you might have a decent player on your hands. But having watched him at Bradford for the last few years I honestly think you've been sold a bit of a lemon

If that's your honest opinion - fair enough.

For my money though JK's opinion is worth considerably more.

IMO Terry is the type of player who needs to move on to a fresh challenge and he seems to have become stale - for whatever reason, possibly no-one's fault - and I guess JK is challenging himself and the player to get him back to something like his best.

I wouldn't like to think of us signing players like this with a rookie coach at the helm - I'd give you that! icon_wink.gif

here, here

You can tell from Newtons interview that he wanted a new challenge.

''I had an opportunity to stay at Bradford for a further 12 months but I felt my career was going a bit stale at Bradford.''

"I wasn't enjoying my rugby as much as I should have done. For the last season or season and a half, it was getting a bit monotonous.''

www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... tlead.html

Seems like he wasn't enjoying his time there. I think a shake up will do him the world of good.
