He joined the club being the son of a former international player, who was a big friend of Nobby's. Of course as soon as Noble left for Wigan it wasn't only Fielden he came back for. Flanagan looked very promising immediately he came to the Bulls, and certainly he wasn't dropped by Bradford has a decent transfer fee was involved in the transaction, certainly for an untried player.

ah fair enough I dont remember that, shows what I know

There was anotherFlanagan playing at the same time who didn't make it, probably this has caused the confusion.

That would be George, the hooker that went to Batley and got a 2 year ban for failing a drugs test.

Were they not related? I always assumed they were brothers.

No relation!

Isn't the phrase silence is golden. It's not if your a Bradford fan.

Actually, I think it's "a watched pot never boils".

Or "You can take a man from Thornbury".

Why drag Keith into this?

Does he still keep his horse on the roundabout?

Having said the George that I know has always been mellow in comparison to his assosiates.

Never had one. Don't like 'em. I gave bare knuckle fighting a go once though with disastrous consequences. This was around the time I discovered alcohol after trying Cherry brandy at a party and had started going out on my own for the first time. Oh the abandon of youth you know what it's like your mum let's you go out for the first time, you don't have to be back until late, you can get served for alcohol in pubs and you are 35 and just enjoying what life has to offer.


Anyway I tend to hang around Holmewood TBH.

looks like Full back is the new 2nd row !!!

Article from today's Sun ,

"Wakefield Wildcats and Bradford Bulls are showing interest is Halfax's Australian full back Shad Royston"

Also , speaking of halifax players,
having seen him on sky quite alot this year and thinking he looks pretty good ( granted he's playing in the Champ) and with Semi looking like he's doing the offski , is there any value in going for Rob Worrincy?

Halifax don't even want him, he's useless. Fast as hell, but can't defend and put him under a high ball and he's like a rabbit in headlights!!

So he will be off to Wakefield then...

Lets hope so.

Oh I do hope so, he's average at best, and surely we don't need any more fullbacks.

Unsurprisingly he has re-signed with Halifax - no need to worry.

tbh despite denials from the club I'm getting a bit nervous that thoran hasnt been snapped up by anyone ( sharp too for that matter). I

m wondering if we've pulled out of walker deal, following a deal being agreed for sam and having funds available for transfer fees, and are using walker's quota spot for moimoi as a direct replacement for sam and any additional funds to pay a transfer for a british back.

fair few rumours of Moimoi coming , but after reading [url=http://www.dailytelegraph.com.au/sport/nrl/big-fuis-devotion-to-his-brave-little-angel/story-e6frexnr-1225780938054this[/url i cant see it

Are we 100% sure Hall and L'Estrange are coming? There was a worrying story about Hall a couple of weeks ago relating to his tragic personal problem and how it had affected his mate L'Estrange. It also seemed to question whether the move to UK would still go ahead! Now that would seriously compromise next years squad!

He ain't coming to England. Being a father myself there's no way I'd up sticks to the other side of the world with those circumstances to deal with at home.

I'd be very surprised to see him here next season.
