I personally don’t think Bateman will make it in the NRL. Defensively he will be sound but the NRL like their back rowers to be able to break a tackle or pass, neither of which he can do. That’s said, he will learn over there which will only benefit him in the long run

Bateman runs with his head down and cuts inside far too much and the NRL coaches will pick up on that immediately I reckon. However, it can quite easily be coached out of his game and pretty much all other aspects of his game are decent.
If I was worried about anything holding him back over there it's his temperament and increased media scrutiny.

Hopefully glass bottles have been removed from Canberra

Looks like Bradford want to be in the top 4 in 2019 ---- assuming that the current structure is not changed.

I think Bateman will fit in well at Canberra. Their side has too many huge forwards with no stamina - they're crying out for someone with a bit of mobility and an engine.

I think Bateman will end up staying in Oz for a long time.

He's not like the other Wigan pansies who went over. Bateman's a Yorksha lad. He'll be fine.

Hull KR Out - Andrew Heffernan - possibly retired at 23 (minimum 12 months out of the game)

Bags of potential and fantastic footwork - brought down by that most worrying of injuries - concussion.

Vincent Duport is no good as a wing or Centre. But he could be a handy second row for Toulouse if he could be trained to pass the ball on occasions.

Surprising as he's only 30.
