Chisholm won't be here in time for Leigh, and Keyes probably won't play either (I'll believe roger on this one - out on dual reg).

Addy and Thomas in the halves for Sunday now that Charnock has gone back to Saints.

Yeah i'd be shocked if Chisholm is here in time for sunday. I'd sooner give Keyes a game alongside and bump Addy back to 13, especially if we're still a bit thin on the ground in the back row.

When was last time Keyes actually played?

Early rounds of this season.

Twitter Dane does expect he will be here on sunday, playing or watching remains to be seen.

Did I just not receive the "Members hear about it first" e-mail about the Chisholm signing, or have they abandoned that promise too now?

Re: Recruitment & Retention Latest : Thu Jun 30, 2016 1:44 pm  

I'd rather Haggerty at HB than Addy. He utterly and completely broke our attack on Sunday. He's just so so slow at passing. Might be temped to put Moss in there and Clare at FB.

Has moss played in halves before, even if he hasnt it would allow us some speed from the ptbs

Chisholm put it on his own twitter this morning and people got hold of it pretty quick (he event tagged the Bulls twitter account into the tweet). I'm guessing the club wasn't expecting that so just had to announce it rather than the usual members first e-mail. Good signing though. RS seems to be developing a good spine to the team for next year.

Think that's correct. The club was outflanked by modern media, though why they think, in 2016 that they can hang around until they are ready to make some Grand Announcement I just don't know. They probably assumed it would take at least six weeks for a ship to sail from Sydney with the news....
