If I was Ferres I would go to someone like Brambani, Thackrey or Gareth Moore, ask them what wage they would need to come out of part time work and pay them it.


Why should they not come part time, is not Mathers Part Time.
As somebody said why don`t we go back for Brook, what I saw of him he was sharp and prepared to take the line on.
If its not sorted soon I fear attendances will drop dramatically, after the recent clueless performances fans will vote with their feet.

Clearly, it is totally impossible for the Bradford Bulls to have a scrum half.

It has been totally impossible for the Bradford Bulls to have a scrum half for some years now. Everybody surely understands this. There are any number of obvious reasons why the Bradford Bulls have not been able to and will not be able to sign a scrum half.

The only thing that does perturb me just a little bit is, how did every other rugby league team in the whole world manage to sign at least one scrum half? Why did none of the reasons we can't sign a scrum half ever apply to any other team in world RL?

Unlucky, or what?

I believe that Brambani has his own business (not sure what in) so its not simply a question of offering a cash inducement. He'd need to either find someone to run his business for him, or run the risk that his carefully built up business would fizzle out.

Why would he take the risk of doing that for maybe a 6 month contract? It could be his entire future for him and his family that is at stake here...

Also isn't Rhys Jacks a dummy half?

Sheffield have been playing Jacks at hooker off the bench. Their half backs are definitely not playing well, as the whole team aren't, hence their terrible form

I have been calling for us to have a go for Mullaney or a while...

I don't think it was him that was homesick, it was his girlfriend I believe. I can't find anything that suggest he is currently playing rugby so I would hope we have at least picked up the phone! Who knows maybe we have?

His last tweet 29th Feb
Good to see the boys @OfficialBullsRL get off to a good start to the season. Promotion this year boys #COYB

Think Mullaney is a none starter. He Cant exactly commute from Oz. It would either mean coming over and leaving his GF in OZ or moving his family half way round the world again. Considering he went because she was homesick, i don't think there's 's chance he's coming back sadly.

He has been a huge loss. What i would give to have him back though.

Re: Halfback Discussion here : Wed Mar 30, 2016 11:21 pm  

Can't see Mullaney coming back either, sadly enough.

As others have mentioned he's been a huge loss. He attacked with purpose and always looked a threat when he carried the ball. No one is really doing that for us at the moment. Our attack on Monday was woeful.
