Doncaster do have a Dual Reg Agreement with Hull BUT in 2017 we (Donny) can only use Hull players earning £50k or less , Bradford could use Hull players earning £50k+.

I think Cameron Scott will be playing a few games for Doncaster this year.

Yep. Gutted. He's going to be one hell of a player. Great signing for FC. Best they've made this season.

I would coaches will be more inclined to loan you players now you have Toovey onboard, as with us having Sheens they know they're going to be well coached while with you/us. Onwards and upwards and that.

Saints forum say they have signed him . Not heard anything over in Hull about him signing for us ?

It looks like the gap between the unsigned 20-ish players and the 26 mentioned in the press conference might be Academy lads signing full-time contracts

Got to Sign for @OfficialBullsRL today #proud #bulls2017


Obviously good news to sign up young lads - but, equally obviously, we're going to need some experience!

Its rare nowadays though that loan players are much better, if any, than any of the young lads that the club can promote itself. This is just another result of Dual Reg where teams can chop and change players at a few hours notice. the exception to that rule would be if a club had a lot of money to spend and could make a decent offer to team.

Ben Harrison is still without a club for next year. Seemed to have a move to Leigh lined up, but seems to have fallen through now they have brought in Burr. Would be a top addition to any squad in SL or the champ.

I don't think he can play for us due to salary cap, so he is deregistered and available.....
