Ace signing, would have loved to have seenhim at Leyth with Riddy, but from a Leythers point of view, you've got yourself one hell of a player.

Great signing. Local lad who wants to play for us is just what we need.Hope we keep hold of Black and Branighan but if they dont want to be here and jones is a signing to cover the loss of 1 or both then good riddance to them

Happy with that as he has improved since he was last with us when he was still learning his trade, did well for Keighley when we played them this season if not spectacular but still created several of their tries.

Luke Branighan is not going anywhere!!! Very good source.

I could ask him personally if he is staying but I wont put him on the spot

Luke has always said when asked that he wants to stay, there's probably more factors in it other than what Luke wants, and what the club are offering, His agent is probably offering him around trying to get a better "price" for him.

I think a lot of it has to do with day jobs. I understand a lot of our players that were previously part time but with no other job are now looking for a day job. I suppose they may end up having to go where the work is.

Heard that Ben Black has gone to Salford, anyone heard any more on that.

I heard that from the same guy who has told me that Sonny Bill is coming to Fax so it could well be true!

I reckon this is just another one of those rumors which raise there head in the off (silly) season

Bloody hope so, However, If the lad is been given a chance in top flight then i wish him all the best in the future. We will see though, I wish there was some announcements with regards signings, Its all a bit doom and gloom at the minute, Pay cuts, Sheffield out of court settlement, Shad going, Potentially black going, Branno ????. however with us after Danny Jones i fear he is lost. A bit of nice news would do us all good i think.

Weather's very nice for this time of year.
