Who you guys buddying up with next season ?

Nobody, I hope.

Might make me a hypocrite but I wouldn't be against us having an arrangement with a Championship 1 side, so we can get some game time for youngsters and fringe members of the squad.

I wouldn't be impressed if we suddenly Dual Registered the entire team with them, but having a proper agreement in place with a club such as Gloucester could be beneficial. We had Jarrod Ward on loan there last season, and that Half Back we got from the french league (Ex st helens, cant think of his name) was loaned to London Skolars. Ideally somewhere more local that Gloucester or Coventry for example, but Its an avenue to explore, Marshall may have a view on the whole idea having been at Warrington who have supplied Swinton with half a team for a couple of years now

With no second team set up, we'll need some way of getting players some games

Not being hypocritical Brew, I wouldn't mind dual reging down, give our fringe players game time, but not up.

I agree it would be of no help to Fax to be at the mercy of a SDL tie-in. Too disruptive.

But buddying downwards could be good for the game. I'm sure non heartlands clubs in Championship 1 would appreciate being able to tap into a source of players. They clearly struggle to source local lads and/or have lads commuting from their northern homes.

we have not done so before so why should we now. unless tie up with a championship 1 side.

It would be natural to think if it did happen(plenty of rumours going about) that it would be with Wire.

You agreed to the charity boxing match yet PAC?

Greg I wouldn't give 1p to any charity connected to a certain super fan so short answer is no


I only asked coz our guys are rumoured to be linking with you, I'm against DR myself but RFL seem to love this baby.

Was against it, still am, just another way for SL teams to sign up talent in case they miss out rather than them signing for a lower placed club and then a transfer having to be paid. This is one if the reasons lower league clubs are struggling.

We're thinking of lending Bradford some of our players.

Why not tie up with Keighley, they look like they will be on a reduced budget next year and there seems to be good links between the two clubs.
I for one am very disappointed that they have been relegated. Keighley away was always a fixture I enjoyed.

Ah but will March be able to see how his Duals are getting on from the roof of the Esso garage?

He could rent one of those high riserers across from the ground. Letting agent? Bradford Bulls supporters club.

I do seem to remember seeing something somewhere where it were mentioned that Dual Reg would still exist but it would be between SL and Champ 1 clubs.

I read the same. In an article about how the RFL didn't seem to know what to do with dual reg cos they weren't too sure how to police it. At least they are consistent in their cluelessness

DR up/DR down....NEVER! Steer well clear of it. It's like company bosses, they will only give the peasants summat if they are getting a lot more back.Sportsman, shudds. Fernandes Czech Mate 4.2% Mmm!

Old news .......

ha ha ha i carn,t spayk

Well, at least it turned out to be a local link-up with Fax & not geographically the furthest UK super league club from the Shay....

Phew ! That'll save something on the Rovers reserves travelling over in their Reliant Robins ( yes, i got the pun in seamlessly ) petrol expenses to Calderdale two or three times a week hahaha

Your right Hudd-shay, never thought I would agree with you, DR, the boil on the s bottom, the lowest of the low, I will never go again, after all why should Hull KR be able to pick the best players.

Greenwood.
Brown.
Taylor.
Saxton.
Tyrer.
Heaton.
Saltonstall.
Mennell.
Johnston.
Murrell.
Place.
