Re: 2017 Squad : Thu Aug 18, 2016 10:45 am  
I'm surprised we're not offering Olbison a new deal tbh. He's not a flair player but at the same time I can't really remember him doing anything wrong or having a particularly bad game either.
He's a very dependable second rower in my opinion, and is also home grown so we should be keeping him I think.
He came off the bench against Halifax on Sunday and made great yards, more than most.

Ah well, just have to trust Rohan I suppose. As long as it was a managerial decision and not a financial one.

When my club didn't exist it was still bigger than yours

Do we have confirmation yet that we're swapping squads with London?

I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

Totally agree with this. In his junior days John played 6 or 13 or even fullback, once in the first team was used as a battering ram and we didnt see anything like what Wigan are now with him, try scoring and creating etc. For me Bradford have always fallen foul of wanting to bulk young lads up, John has stripped right down at Wigan. also see Jamie Langley line breaking international back row to workhorse due to putting too much size on

Blame Paul Medley for that if you weren't 18 stone and over 6 foot you weren't getting recommend by him.

Seems that way. Will never forget johns debut for Dudley hill open age 1st team at 16 came on at full back and tore Stanley to shreds, created game squalling try to take challenge cup game to extra time. Played the week after at stand off scored and created loads, a lot of us were shocked the way he was used at the bulls

After hearing who might be in the squad for Sunday I'm quite looking forward to it.
Keyes debut, possible Bentley debut, and Clark and Lumb both back from injury.

Also, more 2017 squad news. Blythe linked with a return to Warrington! :PRAY: :PRAY: :PRAY:

John Bastian and his team have been really impressed by James Bentley of late. He's really come on. Same as Ross Oakes. These lads are hoping to put in a huge pre season and get in the 17 next season.

I've heard Blythe has got a deal at Warrington. Surprising. Good luck to him. For all his many brain farts he never hides away and shows more enthusiasm than many of the rest of the side put together.

Well there really is absolutely no reason not to play some of them in games like the one coming up on Sunday. I'm hoping we see both Bentley and Oakes, there's no reason playing Blythe and Purtell is injured so get Oakes in at centre.

Does anybody reckon that Cameron Scott will be promoted to the first team squad next season?

I doubt it. He's not played any U19s yet.

Still too small physically for open age.

Re: 2017 Squad : Fri Aug 19, 2016 3:04 pm  
well Blythes now gone. Can't understand Warrington signing him.

Ross thinks there's more business still to come between the 2 clubs. With most of our big name players already signed for other clubs, I expect it be players coming to us.

Obviously Ben Evans has been rumoured and so has Joe Philbin.I think we've done the better bit of business.
