When Pearson took over, he said the advantage RL had over football was the relative low transfer fees (not that there are many nowadays).
Maybe the fee for Chase won't scare him off.

Bradford fans seem to think he would be badly missed if he left. Often a good sign.

I think we need to hold tight & see who the club end up signing. I still think we'll end up signing a name that has not been mentioned yet.

I think he'd do a decent job for us, probably only for a year though.

Oh ok, Michael Korkidas it is then

The biggest thing we are missing is that one good youngster each year, just one, that becomes a first team regular. Makes recruitment so much easier and more focussed. Sadly in the last 3 seasons, we have had none. Hence why we appear to require almost half a team.

Spot on. We reallly are playing catch up for the inadequacies of the last regime.

id be happy with a front row of elima lynch ocarrol bowden watts. if moa stays fantastic if not then replace him with a big islander and we could match anyones pack
elima would be a great signing very good go forward and can offload and defense isnt to shabby either
i would not want kearney at fullback would not be any better then horne imo. mcdonnell for me and a new stand off is a must for next season horne to the bench

Then we should keep signings for only key members and promote the youngsters as cover.

We only need another 3/4 players.

I've posted this before, we've got plenty of room on the cap to sign 3 quality additions. We also need to sign a back up half's and a back up full back if the staff don't believe Lyne, Nicklas, Ellis (he's gone anyway) can do it.
