Hopefully those offered deals will accept!

To be honest it's been that long since they played, I had forgot some of their names and what they look like or is that just my age !!

It has been a while hasn't it. I'm just looking forward to getting back to Odsal and fingers crossed Mumby is over his niggling injury.

I dont think any of the lads have done anything to suggest they dont deserve another deal.

Any that do go you would think would puely be due to financial constraints.

Back row needs a bit more experience and i think we are a bit short in the centres.

With there being no reserves next season i wonder if we will continue to DR with Hull and pick up a few from them given they will be no where for some of thier lads to play.
Couple of season long loans would surely be beneficial for all parties.

Agree about Mumby. It's amazing how much better some players get as they mature. It's just a shame he never really any rough edges to smooth off..

Out of interest, of who is available, which players would you like to see bulls sign?
So far we have Brough
I’d like to see us sign a prop and a second row In the ilk of:
Matt Cook from Cas
Danny Langtree from Oldham maybe
If we had resources to sign another player I’d resign Rhys Evans

I’d promote:
Matty race
Murphy Smith
Cameron Berry
Vytas Vasnys

Obviously we are gunna be losing the loanees, it wouldn’t suprise me if Sam Barlow left and I wasn’t overly enamoured with Greg Johnson the bit I’ve seen. I also feel it hasn’t really worked out for Evan Hodgson maybe a change of club would be good for both parties.

Agree with the most of that. I think Sam Barlow will sign for another year as his wage won't be that high after 5 years out.

Saying on Twitter our season is over talk of a compilation in the autumn

RFL statement
The Betfred Championship and League 1 seasons will not resume in 2020 – this follows the Government announcement last week identifying October as the earliest opportunity for the return of crowds to sport, and the finding of a survey of Betfred Championship and League 1 clubs that a majority in each competition would not support playing matches Behind Closed Doors. Again, the issue of protecting the solvency of clubs informed this decision.

The Betfred Championship and League 1 clubs will be invited to play in a competition this autumn, with a theme of celebrating the sport’s 125th anniversary – and with a prize pot of £250,000, thanks in part to financial support from the Betfred Super League clubs. Further details of this competition will follow this week – it will be voluntary, and there will be a detailed application process requiring clubs to prove their ability to meet the necessary protocols and medical standards. There will be no automatic promotion to the Betfred Super League from this competition

£250,000 is a decent sum. I suppose we have to weigh up the costs of entering versus the chance of winning. Maybe the RFL could post a live tracker on who's entered, then at the last minute if it's London Skolars and West Wales we pounce.
