You're saying that the extra £40-50k would have secured Briscoe's services. But as we need some more strength in the forwards next season, surely the money is better spent there.

we should be speaking with the RFL about the scumbags from Headingley.

I'm not sure how much of a case we could put together, especially when you consider how the RFL like to sweep stuff like this under the carpet and who works for them in a very senior capacity. No doubt Leeds would claim an approach after the anti-tampering deadline and the RFL would find in their favour.

ah, you mean like Bailey's one match ban...

anyway, welcome to FC Andy, I look forward to you proving my valuation of you was wrong.

I think with the lack of decent and available British props out there, the market was always going to be inflated....supply and demand etc.
Lynch's stats in Super League speak for themselves...Good injury record too so if he looks after himself I'm sure he can go on further than the two years. Will also bring leadership to the table, very important for us now Fitz has gone.

50k plus some 'incintive payments' on how well we do in his time here

Welcome to FC Andy very pleased you are on board.

Excellent signing and compliments our other props very well imo.

Great Signing,

Will bring some much needed strength to our pack and a good replacement for Fitzgibbon in terms of presence. Plenty of minutes, Strong Defence and natural Leader, everything we were going to miss from Fitz.

Welcome Andy.

Very good signing.

4th highest meters gained player currently in SL.

And when you consider how poor Bradford are that is a highly impressive stat.

Lynch with O'Meley (needs a good pre-season) as starting props very happy with that.

I think i would prefer to keep with Moa and O'Meley starting with Lynch and O/Carroll/Radford off the bench, or the other way around. That we we keep an impact and grafter prop on all the time.

Would you not have done the same if you had the chance?

What's your valuation and what's it based on?

I heard we paid £50k for him which to me seems very fair.

Sporting Life quotes a 'significent six figure fee'.

Does it really matter what we paid for him? Pearson was happy to do so and could afford to do it. If he wasn't then Lynch would still be a Bull. BtW welcome aboard Andy.
