I too get totally ed of with the constant negativity from certain spoilt fans. Duck off and support Leeds. By the way, Dodds (unless injured) has always been in the Broncos 1st 17 where the successful prop named Garbutt at a Leeds was very rarely in there.

No, no, no! You don't understand this game! What if he turns into a world beater (despite being a panic buy) and flies off to the NRL after a year. It's shortsighted is what it is!

Hey Gary no it's just the suddenness of signing him. Someone mentioned we enquired about him 3 months ago which I hadn't heard. First I heard was he got told about a week ago he was unwanted and the the Akuma signing fell through and we suddenly sign him. It just looked like a panic buy. I hope he is the answer we're looking for I was just really excited for Akuma coming to us as I think he would be amazing for us........so I spat my dummy out and threw a paddy.

The Aussies are laughing at us on Twitter for having Dodds, Sandow, Gidley, and Sims in the same side. I think "prone to the odd error' is polite. We shall see.

Was not me that said we enquired about him, i reguarly read zero tackle and it was about 3 months ago i saw on there he was looking for a SL club.

Mitchell Dodds has been on our radar for ages

I asked Moley on Twitter last night what his opinion is of him. He replied with 'Good, honest battler.'

He also said he knows of one more signing we've made. When I asked if it was Eastmond he favourited my tweet. Probably means nothing though.

If you believe Matt King he's on a 1 year deal to make way for Cronk who's coming to us 2017.

But if I wanted to constantly live with "...but next year we'll be great" then I'd start supporting Hull FC.

Well Sandow is only on a 1 year deal after all.

I thought Sandow was on a longer contract than one year tbh

Sandow has signed a 2 1/2 year contract till the end of 2017.

He's on a 2 year deal, I very highly doubt we'll end up getting Cronk I would rather us develop a British player. I've always had high hopes for o'brien but he doesn't seem to have developed a great deal, still a good player though I still like him. Maybe Patton will get a bit more game time next year?

I believe it to he a 1 year deal at £243,000 approx plus an option, at that sort of contract fee, 1 year sounds sensible, I'd be very nervous about risk over 2 years.

You are indeed correct Rubber D!

Who's favour is the option in?

This is certainly not sudden I was told about this weeks ago by a friend in Aus & he was infront of Garbut in the Broncos pecking order, & he's done OK
He is also playing in the NRL Semi final. His defense is solid.

Yeah now I've slept and looked at him properly he could be a very good buy. I'd still like to see a big brutal prop moving us forward but I've got my fingers crossed England will finally hit form. He's got the size and power to cause damage, imagine if Simms had his size he would be smashing defences. I was really excited for Akuma and was gutted we didn't get him, but if he's gotten greedy and demanded too much money then tough poop. All in all I think we have a really quality squad for next year. Throw Ben Evans back in the fold and king, Wilde and philbin then I think we'll be alright. Excited to see whether Harrison or Westwood moves to prop. I think it's Harrison's best position so would be good to see him at prop for the season,and let Westwood roam at loose.

And yet another signing who doesn't want to leave his current club.

Who? Dodds doesnt?

hmm, there's this, we offered a 2/3 year deal, he wanted 12 months www.couriermail.com.au/sport/nrl ... e4df36b82a there's this, that if you google it, has a comment about him regretting his move, but is only attached the picture and isn't part of the story, www.sbs.com.au/news/article/2015 ... se-bennett

If he rips it up for a year in order to get a contract in the NRL, that's fine by me.

Wow. The frustrating thing is that in the Academy teams they emphasize very heavily the signing of players who want to play for the club. Seems the first team is a depository for reluctant talent.

Double Post!
