Well it wasn't a let down. Ross Oakes and Liam Kirk signed until 2019. Brilliant brilliant news. Much needed lift.

Fantastic. Expected Kirk but certainly didnt expect Oakes. Over the moon with that

I'm very surprised that Oakes hasn't been tempted away.

I had a hope for Oakes staying. Hes a Bulls fan. There wasn't a huge amount of rumours of him leaving like with Bentley, Ryan. Unless an SL side came in for him, then staying with us would be better for his development rather than signing PT for a top championship club. Still, being so use to seeing our best homegrown talent leave, im pleasantly surprised to see him stay with us. Was our best player behind Bentley until his injuries.

Ross himself just put on Instagram he has signed for 2 years

Enough of a statement of intent to start off preparations for next year? Does this news give anyone else a glimmer of hope?

It's a good start. I didn't expect Oakes to stay. Let's see who the coach is and who else signs.

Re: 2018 Bradford Bulls : Wed Sep 13, 2017 6:30 pm  

Announce a couple of decent signings, albeit probably fairly cheapish ones, then announce season tickets 20 minutes later. Can't see many rushing to buy until there are a lot more announcements, after way we've been sucked in last few years.

Spelt Liam Kirk's sponsor wrong. Good to see.
