ahhh so we can confirm we have signed someone for definite? Haha we just don’t know his name or position?

Lol, legal decent, honest and truthful, that's RA&B!

No appearance from Callum Bustin yet. Heard some good reports of this young player.

I had a listen to Mick’s latest interview with John Kear earlier. In the last minute or so John says there is a new player coming in the next couple of weeks that the fans should be excited about. He states that they are dotting all the i’s and crossing the t’s and he should play in at least one of the trial games.

Wonder if this is our World Cup signing that a few had rumoured about on here?

It's the marquee type player I mentioned on another thread - good signing!

Frank: what position please?

That is quite a vague statement though and covers many signings.

How about some meat on the bone so we actually know you were correct when the signing is named. You say a good signing so you must know who it is.
Now is your chance to prove you know something.

I wouldnt be holding my breath on that one Woolly.

Is it Iestyn Harris?

Come on Duffy, I mean Frank who is it?

Jordan Tansey

He's signed for Sheffield

Phew.

Slightly Bulls related news, Danny Addy is out for the entire 2018 season after injuring his knee playing for KR in Danny Houghton's testimonial at the weekend.
Poor bloke, imagine putting in all that hard work in pre-season then having that happen to you only weeks from the start of the campaign.

In true Danny Addy fashion too, he picked up the injury after he started the game at centre and was moved to hooker when Tommy Lee went off. Utility extraordinaire.

Seriously though, it's terrible luck. First season back in Super League since we got relegated and he's going to miss the whole thing. Looking at the rest of KR's squad, there's every chance they'll be back in the Championship by the time he's back.

Saw him walking up the steps on Sunday and questioned what he was doing. Turns out he was sat in the Sheffield box with Senior.

I have to admit that when I saw him I remembered A quote about us signing a utility player and $hat myself

Tansey is only on trial with Sheffield, he hasn't signed. Could still happen...

I remembered seeing Senior in the 'warm ups' but was surpised not to see him in his usual role of defensive organiser - so, it seems he does induction courses as well then.

Our crowd pleaser should be announced next week according to Kear (and we survive Tuesday)

Having flashbacks of Micks "Marc Green has opened the cheque book" quote, only for it to be a retired Richard Mathers. Thankfully i trust Kears judgement more than Micks

Would we describe mathers as a utility, full back,winger, substitute, injury room attendant, robber of unearned wages..........

I honestly don't know who it is, was just told it was a marquee type player - it's been in the works for a few weeks now, so the deal is either pretty complicated or involves other parties.

I've been racking my brain for who's available that would fit 'marquee' and 'crowd pleaser' and have decided it's not someone currently in England, but I'm guessing as much as you guys.

Marquee player in Championship 1 is a different matter altogether.

Think Lee Smith needed a marquee to stretch over his gut on Boxing Day. Maybe he's our man?

Kear has mentioned a couple of times that it would be a signing that would 'please' the supporters. He's said words to that effect in the press more than once!

That suggests it's either someone who has previously played for us (and been very well liked - so NOT Richie Mathers lol), or someone whose name would be known. So I don't see it being some random Papua New Guinea guy who only extreme RL nuts would have even heard about.

I don't really see Kear as a bs merchant, so I'm thinking that it will either by Sironen, Moss (unlikely); a very recognisable name from a Championship club, or a SL player coming to the end of his career.

Can't fault that analysis Paul. Here's hoping.
