It's a touch bizarre, unless he's getting the cold shoulder for the alleged incident

He’s probably a cheap option to fill a squad place.

| Yeah i think Bullock was signed as there isn't an abundance of quality props about, and he's a big dude who has it in him when he's in the mood.
Decent as a back up prop.
I assume it's a mental thing with him as we've seen him when he's switched on, but he's so hot and cold it's frustrating. He could be a really good consistant prop but just never is

I was hopeful for him. It's a pity as he has the physicality just not the mentality.

| Bullock, should have stayed on loan at Widnes, but from what am hearing from a Widnes player, he was a bit soft in training and didn’t seem cut out to play rugby league.. such a waste of cap space signing him for another two years. He has the size but looks absolutely terrified when steps on the rugby field

Add him to the "journeyman" list. 7 clubs.

That contract extension really is looking ever more bizarre. At the time it was announced, Sam Burgess said "He’s a valued part of our pack, a popular figure amongst the playing group and he will be an important player for us in the years ahead” but frankly, his team selections just don't back up those words.

Beat me to it, very strange indeed. So we hoping to sell him to Salford at end of season or does he get a fresh chance in preseason.

There are rumours that St Helens are making a bid for Lachlan Lam.

| Lachlan Lam is a bit of quality & a relatively low risk signing. He will need big money but he would (obviously) improve any side in Super League

He signed about 5 weeks ago, as per page 252 of this thread. I'll never understand why the club take so much time to announce some players extensions.
The club activated Tai's 2nd year option last week. No idea when it will get announced.

Like I said in reply to your earlier post you know before the club ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](//www.rlfans.com/images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) Do you know if we have shown interest in Lam.

With Williams, Dufty AND King as our current Marquee Players, I am struggling to see how we can fit Lam into our squad?
Surely Lam would be a Marquee signing for any Superleague team, if he left Leigh.
We don't have a Marquee vacancy, so the Salary Cap would be a major problem to offering him a contract with us.

Fair point, just when I saw his name pop up on a thread earlier today and Abe mentioning a Drinkwater replacement I just threw is name in. Just hoping the possible half coming in is someone decent.

Reading the entrails...............
Having not replaced Kasiano, and having shipped out Dwyer, Dudson and Russell, we had an overseas space plus "a big chunk of salary cap'" This meant that we could move to bring in Yates this season and we still have some space left.
On the subject of Drinkwater he says, "At the minute, we’re pretty tight on the cap for next year". This would suggest that we're already planning to use up Nicholson's and, at least part of, Drinkwater's salaries, plus the remaining 'chunk' on another player or players. Maybe some will go on improved contracts for some of the young 'uns, but it still sounds like a significant signing tba.

| Lam would be a good signing. Only 26 still and yet to enter his prime. You'd have an Aussie who would unlikely to become home sick having been settled here a couple of years now and his Dad being here. If we're after a number 7 as Abe says, you would think he'd be high on the list.
