More O/S players, yet some people want to expand to more teams.

When was the last great 2nd row we produced ?

Some might not agree here, but Radford as a player came through Hull junior ranks. There were uproar when Bradford came in for him, but at the time Bradford were the top team.

He was an outstanding young player, almost unstoppable at times. In his debut away a Cas he was brilliant. It was no surprise a side like Bradford came in for him, although I think they changed his natural game.

agreed, he became much more of a battering ram at Bradford which fell in line with their strategy at the time. Its no surprise that Radford wants his teams to be all powerful given his playing track record.

Remembering this situation, it was more about Radders had allegedly signed for Hull, then somehow signed for Bradford.

Bradford were as you say, the top dogs and managed to grab Tevita Viakona as well, not so happy days.

LOL, Vaikona was sold purely for £££££, Radford left to the highest paymaster, can't blame either, it's a career.

I have a feeling the players targeted havnt officially signed yet because they havnt been announced by the club
Mau and Fonua announced as soon as they had signed even though the Mau signing took several weeks to get over line.
