gaskell will be on a good salary



at the time of his signing he was sought after, 2015 championship player of the year and was going well till injury



still just abit more patience and mamo and another will arrive

You are obsessed with this inexperienced youngster brearley. If Mamo does come he won't be playing for a couple of months anyway- I do hope he is better than the Newcastle supporters seem to think....

classic! Poor lad ain't even signed yet - if RS wants him, has wanted him for weeks, and is prepared to take him despite injury and in exchange for Wardle then he must truly believe he is a very good addition??? Will be happy if we get Mamo and delighted if Wakeman comes too - darn it he is unproven too

im expecting him to come over and absolutely take the competition by storm then given the hype that you and brearley and it appears stone have over this player. Nothing less will do.

What exactly is our salary cap figure? Does anyone know?

Surely whatever it is, it will be a 'maximum' figure so we are under no obligation to spend up to it.

If KD decides to cut back on his subsidy, our 'cap' figure could well be lower than in previous seasons, don't you think?



The evidence would seem to suggest more players are going out than coming in and the Bradford 3 won't be on huge contracts.

Mamo coming would seem to depend, amongst other things, on Wardle going the other way so again, no net benefit in terms of player numbers.

Looks to me like we've made a decision to rely on the young lads a lot more this season.

Brave or daft, you pays your money and takes your choice..

£1.85m.

exactly, an exciting young full back with pace thats the kind of full back the giants have lacked for years, will add an extra dimension to our attack



some will love him to fail though just so they can start a bring back grix thread

He's not the first player we have brought from Oz that was crocked when we bought him, I agree lets get some pace in the team, I hope the other guy comes as well. whoever we bring in there is risk involved, not least with the Bulls trio but we are starting fresh, Lets give RS a chance to show what he can make of them.

yeh rapira was crocked, been others too who have had major ops, think o'donnell had knee surgery



we will have to just back our medical team!

McNally......Eliot hodgson.......Simpson......... mackintosh........

Lacked for years eh.....

What he probably meant Jools was attacking full back with pace that is Super League standard.



Hodgson could have been but didn't have the right attitude - wasn't all that quick.



Simpson for me is not going to make it (Hope in wrong) Rick Stone obviously doesn't think so as well if hes trying to sign a full back on a long term deal. Lightening fast off the mark but slows rapidly after 30m. Think size is going to be his biggest issue. Yes Brett Hodgson was small but lets face it there are not too many Brett Hodgsons about.



McNally has been good in the championship but he may be garbage this year coming.



Mcintosh - going to be a winger. Has good pace and hopefully will make it in super league.

Hodgson had- has a great attitude! Could well have made it in the game if a certain past trouble maker at our club hadn't made his position difficult. He now has his own successful business- so I reckon his attitude is spot on! McNally has been in The championship- like a large proportion of our squad at the moment..... I agree re Simpson. -but all they need(Ed) was an opportunity.
