Maybe gone back so we can use his loan spot for another loan player. maybe a prop from the club!

we have two loan spots free already so no reason for him to go back to free up a spot unless we've three loan players coming in. Who have leeds got in cup next week. MAybe a case that their wanting to rest one of their halves and give sutcliffe a game. Then in gaskell isnt ready for salford game sutcliffe comes back on a week by week basis. Are mullally and bridge allowed to play for us in cup or are they blocked by their parent clubs to stop them being cup tied?.

Gaskell due back for Salford game. Sure we can manage against Oldham in meantime with foster or kear at FB. Forwards have to be priority for signings given we've probably quite limited funds available.

Is he definitely due back for Salford? I know they said 8-12 weeks but I hadn't seen any confirmation that Salford was a definite return. If Gaskell is almost fit then it makes some sense, would have thought we might go game by game though. Unless of course the decision wasn't ours to make and Leeds require him back.

Agree about forwards, we desperately need additions and I wouldn't be wanting to rely on Mullally being with us all year. If a Giants continue their patchy form, Anderson might be looking to shake things up a little and Mullally is starting to shine for us.

I'd wager this is us wanting him back.

If Aiton's out for a while then either Burrow or Sinfield will be playing serious minutes at hooker, so we need a cover halfback.

Wasn't Aiton just taken ill on the night?

Either way, with doubts hanging over him JJB and Delaney it is probably Leeds who have called him back.

The Bulls don't yet have the permission from the government to sign players from outside the EU. This needs to be done (under the new company name) before any overseas signings can be made. This did not apply to Wakefield, as they have been trading with this licence for years.

Also Sammut, being from Malta, is presumably on an EU passport.

How about the following - there's a little bit in the League Weekly today about Mark Offerdahl having a Super League release clause & 2 Super League clubs are interested in him - led to believe the Bulls are one of them.

Think he's currently with North Wales Crusaders and played for USA in the RLWC last year.

If Bulls get him it's free lentil curries all round.

Would have same issue already mentioned that we can't sign overseas player until license is transferred to new company. Could be a longer term target though.

Re: Player rumours 2014 : Mon Mar 31, 2014 3:29 pm  

He looked a good player in world cup. Similar type of player to Kopout. A hard working, no thrills prop that puts good minutes in. Would be a good addition if we could get him.
