The visa thing. I think there is a requirement that if a player hits a % of his international games in the preceding 2 years (60% maybe?) then the visa is granted. So someone who plays 3 games in the WC should hit that requirement

That's correct Highlander.

Any potential targets would need to play a minimum of three games in the RLWC2017 to qualify for a visa.

And im sure if anyone asked you for a name you would say Hayne and Vunivalu!

That would rule out Danny Brough then ( not that he would need one)

The only fullbacks who played who are probably a realistic target for the Bulls is:

Mason Cerruto
Corey Maklim
Kristian Freed

Out of them my personal choice would be Cerruto followed by Freed.

We seem more interested in announcing the players coming to the reunion dinner rather than squad signings. With a small squad announced and some players p/t you would find more people at a giants v Salford game than will be up at tong today

I wouldn't pay much attention to the post you quoted. More likely he's deduced that since 6 teams played that morning, all of which were from the lower end of the international spectrum, that those are the teams Bradford are most likely to sign a player from. So by saying what he does, if they actually do sign one of them, he can make out that he knew about it. Playing averages.

That time of year is it, here we go again with you ( i still haven't forgotten about your "insider knowledge" 12 months a go)

Hamsters got it spot on. Everyone knows we're looking at the WC and you've literally gone with the fact yesterday had 6 teams playing, mainly the lower teams who have players that could potentially suit us and ran with it as fact. Who's your source? Also targets is a convenient word to use. You again can't be wrong. We don't sign them, then they are just targets. You've not even mentioned the teams they play for

Tell you what, name the players and if we sign them, i will donate £50 to Bullbuilder.

All i'll say is, for someone who always has the latest scoop on the Bulls ... ...it's funny how we didn't hear a murmur from you about Milton or Crossley.

Did Shannon McDonnell play for Ireland? I know he's only playing park footy in Australia.
