Possibly This Fella On the basis that Bradford haven't announced him,as yet,and as other Swinton players have been mentioned ie Johnson and Barlow,and as he is a former Swinton player,that would be my guess.

Samir is a decent player.... Had a couple of good games for us at this rate you'll have more ex Lions in you squad than ever.... Guess that's the Watto effect .

If the link is correct, could it affect the new fed/non fed situation:
(I'm assuming not)

"Samir Tahraoui ... Algerian born, he moved over to the UK as a youngster and settled in Warrington. He came through the youth ranks at local club Crosfields before signing for Warrington Wolves in their academy set-up. He joined St Helens in 2010 and played for their under 20s. While studying Sports Science at Salford University, he became an England and Great Britain Rugby League Student international and was one of the team who famously helped the Lions win the Academic Ashes in Australia in 2011. His performances down under meant he was spotted by Queensland Cup side Tweed Heads Seagulls and he played for them until the end of the 2012 season. " He was then with South Wales Scorpions and Swinton before signing for Whitehaven.

Slightly off topic but what happened to that young lad who destroyed us when Haven beat us some seasons back. Cant recall his name but he looked a prospect.

Greg McNally? Around 08? Think he burst only to the scene and was snapped up by Huddersfield. Never lived up to his hype now plays for Leigh where don't think he a keep player for then.
