Quote ="shrops giant"I'm happy with ferguson coming back. Always thought he went well for us, seemed to do well for the bulls, and didn't look out of place on the international stage.
I think he'll get a fair amount of game time and will prove to be a decent signing.
Clough will be a back up to the main set, but again I think will get game time through injuries etc. Not the most exciting signing, but a solid 'squaddie'.
Gaskell could go either way. On his day, the lad is quality. It's more a case of where does he fit. I think brough and brierly are the starters, and I don't see him in the centres. I haven't seen enough of him at full back to have a firm opinion either way.
Overall, I'm not as down on the Bradford 3 as some others. I think they'll surprise a few.
Not saying I wouldn't like to see some others mind

Can't argue with much of that really, I wont pretend i would have signed any of those three myself but being as we have them, they deserve a chance , and R Stone might be just the man to make S L players out of them.
Unless we get this Mamo kid, It's beginning to look like Gaskell or Murphy for fullback, or RS could see Gaskell as a half, Myself i hope Brierley get's a proper chance alongside Brough. Brough to make the plays and Brierley to poach some tries, with Hinchcliffe at LF.
