Hudds have also allowed their Ausie prop to go back home to be with his seriously ill mother. That probably made them decide to recall him not just the Ferres suspension.

Well we need to bear in mind this part of the T&A story

Bridge can also be brought back by Warrington at any point under the terms of his loan.

This means the whole 'season long' thing is only so long as Warrington don't need him. If they get a few injuries they can call him back at a moments notice - as we've seen with Mullally

What we actually need are a couple of permanent signings. Being at the mercy of other clubs is no way to build a sustainable team.

Whilst I agree with that, I'm afraid beggars can't be choosers, and yeah, I love to bring a couple of permanent players in, but the money may not be there so, to be honest, I'm not holding my breath. I suppose it's more than possible that when Hudds get some players back they may let Mulally come back to Odsal - though I suspect that if he plays for them in the same fashion he's played for us he might well be in their first 17 for the rest of the year..

Real shame that Mullally has gone as he looked aggressive and was making impressive metres. We need permanent signings, as someone else has said, as I'm not sure Chev can play at prop every week.

It's not just a question of money either. There has to be the players available for us to be able to sign them

Should that Wigan lad we had on loan be nearing his full fitness? 6 weeks must have gone since he injured his shoulder.

Indeed, also according to today's T&A, we can't bring in anyone from overseas as the club is a 'new company'. This, I think, is a visa issue rather than anything to do with RL per se.

wouldnt worry about it too much, we had 2/3 out at the start of the year when we originally let me out, we've got3/4 out now after last week, and still agreed to let him out. It'll take something particularly catastrophic now i reckon for us to call him back.
