Great to see so many kids in. Will certainly be a valuable leaning experience a tough game up in Cumbria.

Would probably say Keyes and Howarth. Maybe butterworth on bench.

Not sure RS rates A'OB or Joe Lumb. He seems to be trying a fair but at 9. Maybe JL is just injured though.

Don't know anything about Butterfield. Is he a scrum half?

What happened to Jacob Trueman. He got a brief go earlier this season but seems to have vanished off the radar

Reiss has been playing hooker. Trueman is still with us and looking like a really classy player. But he's only 17. No need to rush him. Sure he's got a big future with us along with 5 or 6 others.

Think we have an exciting future. The ones coming through aren't just good players. They're some of the best in their age group.

Says Butters been playing hooker at 19s, with Trueman at scrum half.

This mornings T&A mentions that Adam Tangata might be on our radar.

Would be happy with that, he always looks handy when we play Halifax

Re: 2017 Squad : Sat Sep 10, 2016 7:57 am  

Would be a very good signing would Tangata. One of best props in league. Only 25 too. Even Greg would rate this signing. Just waiting for him to say it would be a backwards move now

Agree totally, though I'd guess there would be a bit of competition for his signature.

As has been said, one of the best forwards in this league and could easily cut it in SL. Recently turned down a move to Salford and it depends if Bradford could stump up the sort of cash that Halifax want.

Considering he is off contract why would would it matter what cash Halifax want?
