When we went into admin Hudds ripped players from us like Murphy and Ferguson. Although it isn't nice it's about survival of the fittest. So who would you like from Bradford/London?

I think London's players have already been picked over.

Someone has already mentioned Kearney. Wouldn't mind Kear either.

Think Kear is the obvious choice. We are woefully lacking on the wings.

Danny Addy had signed for us and then was give the option to pull out. To be honest not been that impressed with him. I would definatly go for Kear. Other than that I can't see anyone who would improve our squad they have.

I don't think I would want Addy, vulnerable in defence.

I would like to see Kieran Dixon from London broncos. Even though he's been injured this season I think he has a lot of potential and he is still young.

probably only kearney and sidlow for me dont think the rest are any better than we have...

Liked the look of Sidlow when he was a Salford.
When Bradford signed him, I thought they had got a good player but due to the unrest not seen the best of him.
He is the sort of player that Wigan would pick up for peanuts and turn him into a quality forward.
Would be happy if he signed for us.
Kearney a good player but needs the ball in his hands, Bulls fans critical of his tackling or lack of it.
Would say Kearney and Sammut are the same type of player, so I don't think we need someone else complicating things more.

Kearney has done 102 tackles to date whereas Mathers has done 71. Everybody sees different things but I think Kearney would be a useful addition to the squad. Sidlow would be a good replacement for Raleigh if he is retiring.

Kear would be a good replacement for Owen if he's off back to Cas. We were weak in the outside backs this year and need to learn from that and have greater strength in depth and greater proven quality there which I think Kear provides with genuine pace.

Telled ya before about stats asma no way mathers as made 71 tackles maybe in his career

71 in 19 games this season but they do say there are lies, damned lies and statistics!

If signings were made based upon how many tackles someone made then Washbrook would be signing for Wigan next season.

Certain people's reliance on statistics and statistics alone is baffling. I mean who cares how many tackles a fullback has made - I'd be more bothered how many basic misses they had, average meters per game, errors etc.....basically any other stat than how many tackles they made.

We don't need Kearney - we have too many other similar players. In fact the only player I would have liked from Bradford was Gale and he is going to Cas

Just Fakir from Bradford as he's a wrecking ball. He plays well when mentally stable and we are a club that has great team spirit. London some good young talent there.

Says psychiatrist NGB4C.

Kear is HKR bound.

I wouldn't take any. Happy with what we have.

Must admit, let's see who clubs are releasing/ can't fit under the cap and look after our own before the throwing money about like confetti to players who are in teams below us.

My comments have been taken out of context a poster stated that Kearney did not like tackling which I found amusing when our own first choice full back does even less of it. I'm not slagging Mathers who is ok for WTW.

I agree about stats hence my later quote about them as you need to look at them across the board in all facets of the game which I'm sure the coaches do.

Kearney I've no doubt will go to a top 8 club as Kear, Sidlow and Manuokafoa will do. We're probably not in the market for any of them.

As for scrum half Gale we definitely don't need him (or afford him)if we are going to keep Tim Smith hopefully. That's an issue we experienced this season with too many pivots and not knowing the best combination.

Dave Parker (yes I know) in the League Weekly has Dean Collis on his way to Hull Kr, yet two pages prior to his column it says that Collis is signed to us until 2016. So, if he is going are they paying a fee?

You're a stats man and he may not like tackling but has had to make more tackles than our fullback due to the Bulls conceding 250 more points than us.
This is maybe the fact that his tackling frailties have been picked up on.

I've not followed the Bulls week in week out so if Kearney is not the player that I've been impressed with when I've seen him play then fair enough. He's played in a team that has had it tough. Let's see where he goes and if Super League maybe how he plays in a better team next season.

Back off back to Oz apparently. As for Manuokafoa he looked decent in his first season but has been a passenger for large parts of this year. Plodder who I won't be devastated to see depart. I think we'd be better of with somebody like Moore for value for cap. Pleasing to hear that Purtell is looking to stay as well but it's some of the younger guys that we really need to sell the vision to.

Don"t get me wrong, I think Kearney is a quality player.
It's the Bulls fans that are questioning his defensive qualities but after years at the top when all your fullback did was score try after try like Spruce.
Is it any wonder they think he can't win a game on his own without tackling?
