Heard a rumour tonight in the press box that Adam Pearson is planning a big money signing. Elliot Whitehead was the name mentioned.

Elliott's tweet last night:

Hardest thing I've ever ever had to do #hopeitstherightchoice


Seems a little ominous! Although I think he's under contract to 2013 so a fee will be required, not that that seems to matter to Pearson.

Interesting...

Would be a tremendous signing. I rate him so highly I have him in my fantasy league team!

The Bulls held a fans' forum just prior to the start of the season, during which our chairman specifically mentioned that they were hoping to tie Elliott down to a new contract.

That was almost two months ago, and we've heard nothing since. The silence speaks volumes as far as I'm concerned.

Another backrower !. Good player though and a player I rate .

If Briscoe goes and we seem to like raiding the bulls I wouldnt say no to young crookes.

Rather have Bateman.

would be a great signing for us, but i'll wait until its announced on the fc website first before getting too excited or carried away

We need props for next year though, O'Meley and Moa probably leaving, we need 3. Hopefully one of Green & Bowden will be ready to step up full time so we'd need 2. Would like us to sign Johnson from Wakey and a n other.

Is O'Meley going then? People keep talking about Tickle moving up which could be an option if we strengthen the back row.

wouldn't be suprised if o'meley stayed in the uk for another season, he likes it here by all acounts, even if not at fc

I'd like to think Ogre would stay, he's still got another 2 years in him IMO and would hate to see him at another SL club. But with the increase in NRL teams plus the rise in salary cap he may fancy trying to get another deal in Oz.
Tickle is a good shout, could certainly be another 'big minutes' prop. But we need to replace Moa's impact if he leaves.
