We've asked Giants if they're willing to let us talk to him

One word - it starts with B, ends in s and it has two l's in the middle. No, didn't catch that?

That's the second time I've heard that this week and now I'm wracking my brains as to where the first time was......

Just out of interest, where did you hear this?

'Cause I really do think someone's pulling your leg. Didn't he sign a very long ocntract last season?

Signed a deal in March this year until the end of 2012

The long contract was Kev Brown (and Eorl Crabtree) I think

Well if it is true, i'd be delighted. Certainly showing ambition, and maybe, just maybe (even though he's playing well at 9) he'd like to have the 7 shirt at Bradford, now Hudds have Brough.

You have an exceptionally good memory about other teams player contracts!!

Robinson has 7 shirt back at Hudds. Brough got dropped to to the bench and has then been playing hooker recently, with Brown & Robinson in the halves.

It's one thing I try to keep in memory just for when the player rumours come about, so it gives an idea if it might be right or not.

Don't ruin it!

I'm trying to think of a plausible scenario where this rumour could be true.





It's a good thing, silly season has started now me thinks.

Would be a cracking signing if orford goes, and would hopefully leave us with enough brass left over to bring in a stand off.

Can't see it coming off though unfortunately.

Never rated him.

My original post in no way implied we had signed Robinson, but it was factual.

I too would be delighted if he were to join the Bulls, and I'm equally delighted at the ambition we're finally showing

Probably still the best natural, traditional scrum half in the country but not reached the level I thought he would. A decent British signing if true.

If it's true, it's a good signing. If it's true.

I said a couple of seasons ago he was what we wanted - proper scrum half that attacks the line

what would be more interesting to know is if they gave us permission or told us to get lost.

would be ok
but not the caliber of player to replace ox

think we're going to have to accept that whoever we replace orford with isnt going to be of as high a level for simple fact that everyone in that bracket is already under contract. Top halves out of contract come along once in a bue moon.

The hope as to be that whilst we cannot have a scrum half of Orford's quality we can try to replace him with an decent half back pairing which would be better than realying on one player as we did this season. Unfortunatly I cannot see where this decent half back pairing will come from and I am worried that our halves next season could end up as Obst & Dorn due to the lack of availabity of quality half backs.

I wasn't impressed by Luke in the play-off game today but then again the whole Huddersfield performance was seriously lacking something today.

Credit to Brian Noble and the Crusaders for making Huddersfield work hard for the full 80:00 minutes.

One thing I did notice was his ability to run from Dummy half. He's quite destructive at that and with L'estrange able to do the same teams would be terrified in defence if only we had a strong running stand off to link up with Brett Kearney on the second faze. This is of course if he signed for the Bulls and TBH I can't see robinson wearing anything other than claret and gold next year.

I can't see it either to be honest. Huddersfield aren't going to let him leave unless there is big £££££ involved.

Besides can you picture the Luke Robbinson fan club all stood on the popular side



I thought Danny Brough had an off game, didn't really do anything until late on in making the odd line-break or two.
