I wonder if we got a glimpse of our 2021 Centre/Wing partnership tonight with Evans and Tindall. He certainly took his try well

Also after the announcement earlier about Murphy Smith we now have 24 contracted players, who I think are-

1. Pickersgill
2. Dawson-Jones
3. Evans
4. Oakes
5. Brown
6. Brough
7. Lilley
8. A England
9. Doyle
10. Crossley
11. Rooks
12. Murphy
13. Hallas
14. Flanagan
15. DFJ
16. Gallagher
17. Nzoungou
18. Scurr
19. B England
20. Race
21. Berry
22. Ho
23. S Smith
24. M Smith

All on 1 year deals apart from Evans, Brough, A England, Murphy and Gallagher

Good to see we're keeping our young players. Sure some will take their chance just as Gallagher and Scurr did last year and many more before them. Our back line is there. We need a couple of props though. I'm pretty certain Ant Walker is one. Maybe keeping our powder dry as I'm sure a lot of players will be released from SL clubs.

I'd imagine the amount of 1 year deals are due to the unknowns of the covid impact for next year.

Mick Gledhill appears to know 2 super league players we have signed

Certainly shows we need to generate some income from different streams to give us a chance in 2021 and beyond

Anyone heard anything regarding Kirk?

He seems to have dropped off the radar completely

I like that squad. In a strange way whilst I accept Covid has been financially ruinous for just about everybody, we look at our strongest (on paper) since we left SL. I think we're 2 seasoned props short of top 4, with a lot of younger players who will only improve. I haven't seen Bradley Ho btw.

Only at Bradford could a global plague herald the first sign of optimism in a decade.

Let’s hope the coffer stretch. It can’t be easy

Let's hope the league runs something like normal with P&R at the end of it, but everything is shrouded in doubt as it stands. Protracted 'no fans' regulations spell trouble though and things (on the covid front) are only likely to be worse before they get better, imo.
