Can't he just change his mind? Players do it to us all the time? What's the worst that can happen? Huddersfield get a bit cross?

He reneges on Shudds, we get sued for cohersing him, and go bust again?

He could wait until they play Catalans away and just not turn up at the airport....

Like GoB did with Wire, he could just say to Hudds - "I really want to stay at Bradford pleeease" and then, like we did, they should release him from his contract. Although GoB was staying in SL when we did that I suppose.

Option 2 would be to see if they lost the MPG to Leigh, then we could get him back at that point as his contract would be voided with relegation. Few other players there who we could look at in that case

We're trying to get Sam Wood on loan for rest of this season, Anderson doesn't want to commit to a full season so he's currently at Oldham. He wants to come to us tho'

Sam Wood or Kyle Wood?

Sam is an outside back if I remember rightly. We can't be doing this again, filling up on three-quarters.

Sam Wood

Sam Wood? He's a great young player. I just wish OUR academy could produce players like him the way Hudds one does

Well at the moment we're massively light on centres. Blythes not good enough. Walshaw is a second-rower, Purtell is crocked and JPB seems to have dropped of the face of the earth. Then's only Welham who's a natrual decent centre at the moment. Wood impressed me when he made his debut, particularly defensively, which is a weakness for us.

Re: Recruitment & Retention Latest : Wed Jun 08, 2016 11:31 am  

Why would we be trying to sign an academy centre? Seems a bit odd. Is he really that much stronger than Ryan or Oakes?

Maybe Kieren Moss won't be playing at fullback, but at 6, with Clare still at 1. If Blythe and Purtell are still injured and Walshaw is concussed (?) then maybe we're stretched for cover?

I don't even know anymore, just all guesswork at this stage. Friday's squad could be interesting though.

What's wrong with giving Ethan Ryan or Ross Oakes a go? Not to mention Clare if Moss is used at fb.
