With the game just 8 days away can anyone hazard a guess at a 17 man line up for the HKR match given the players available?

Re: Re-signings & new coach : Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:12 pm  

Don't known if anyone seen the photo of the players at nandos on twitter but looks like Alex Foster is on it

Chistolm is on way back to UK..think he's signed for us?
Him , Joseph and Foster would bolster squad no end..

Presuming we don't sign anyone else.

1. Johnny Campbell
2. Omari Caro
3. James Mendieka
4. Illiess Macani
5. Ethan Ryan
6. Leon Pryce
7. Joe Keyes
8. Liam Kirk
9. Joe Lumb
10. Ross.Peltier

12. Colton Roche
13. Brandan Wilkinson

14. vila Halafihi
15. Jon Magrin
16. Ross Oakes
17. Keenan Tomlinson/Vytas Vaznys

The season starts thr week after against Rochdale for me. Desperately need forwards. Backs looks fine.

Re: Re-signings & new coach : Sat Jan 28, 2017 3:59 pm  

Foster and Joseph will have stayed, Foster has been with the lads in all the Tweets and photos on Twitter. Plus Joseph has tweeted something with #BullsFamily so that points to him staying (assuming they will be fit next week?). Can't see Caro making the first game if he was in a protective boot so:

1. Johnny Campbell
2. Ethan Ryan
3. James Mendeika
4. Ross Oakes
5. Illiess Macani
6. Leon Pryce
7. Joe Keyes
8. Phil Joseph
9. Joe Lumb
10. Ross Peltier
11. Alex Foster
12. Colton Roche
13. James Bentley

14. Vila Halafihi
15. Jon Magrin
16. Liam Kirk
17. Brandan Wilkinson/Oscar Thomas

be very surprised if chisholm has signed for us. Think he'll be going to widnes to replace brown or maybe saints as injury cover for matty smith.

Think we'll see some loan players arriving in next week. Most teams will wait until after their final friendlies to make decisions as to who they are prepared to send out on loan depending on form and injuries.

Definitely not. Chisolm isn't signing, he has already said.

Re: Re-signings & new coach : Sun Jan 29, 2017 10:50 am  

There were many fans tweeting him about possibly coming back.
The odds do look like another team but what would annoy me a little is that if he is going to another club it would have taken just a few seconds to say "Sorry, but I am not signed for the Bulls."
That would end high hopes being dashed later and let these fans down gently.
But that is what I would do. If he does go to Widnes or Saints he could be on the bench or stands after 2 months.
