Slightly off topic, but have heard a rumour around Cas that they’re looking at Ethan Ryan. Thoughts?

Amazed nobody has looked at him sooner tbh, easily the best finisher outside of top flight rugby. I think he's scored 76 tries in 76 games for us or something ridiculous like that.

76 tries in 77 games (all competitions) I believe.

I wouldn't be surprised if more clubs are after him to be honest

Re: Olly Wilson : Sat Apr 13, 2019 8:19 am  

And he’s one player who I wouldn’t feel bitter about leaving. He’s stayed with the club through some tough times and gradually developed with the club. I think he’s now coming to the point in his career where he’s ready to have a crack at a higher level. Realistically it isn’t going to happen with Bradford for a couple more years at best case scenario so you couldn’t blame him for moving on pretty soon.

100%

If reports are to be believed he had a deal to play for Leigh in SL, and he knocked it back to play with us in League 1. Not many players would have done that! Most of the rest of them couldn't wait to sign on for other clubs when we were in the mire.

So, if we don't get promoted this season, which we won't - then who could possibly begrudge him if he signed for a SL club?

Same feelings. Really hope we can keep him though. Did he play centre in the academy? Is that where he is seen long term? Love it to be with us.

T&A say only Evans and Keyes are injured, so if that’s the case why are Gibson and Oakes not in

Re: Olly Wilson : Sun Apr 14, 2019 8:50 am  

Oakes is playing.

Re: Olly Wilson : Sun Apr 14, 2019 9:25 am  

Must be something wrong with my eyes cos I don’t see him in the named squad
