It mentions a change in ownership. Don't think that applies to either us or Bradford.

Well, we could be the subject of "Centre Of Excellence", with Tom Armstrong, or Mathias Pala (Catalans).

Also, of the other 'top' Championship sides, (i.e. Bradford, Halifax and Sheffield) I think the following have played in SL:-

Bradford - Jean-Phillipe Baille; (Catalans) James Mendeika; (London) Ryan Shaw. (London)
Halifax - Steve Tyrer. (Saints)
A few others, including Adrian Purtell, Dane Neilsen, Misi Taulapapa, Ben Farrar, and Wes Naiqama, have figured in the NRL.

No doubt I've missed a few from that list!

My thinking was that the recent 'allegedly mistaken' winding up order lodged against the Bulls maybe related to their numerous changes in ownership over the last 2/3 years, which is why the Bulls claimed it was a mistake.

I haven't actually got a clue, just noticed a Bull had graced us with his presence so thought I'd give his club a shout out

Unsure as to why you haven't announced Chase yet when he is training with the club?

The RFL won't allow us to register him until we release more players to comply with salary cap rules. When that process is complete I'm sure we will be in a position to unveil his signature

Last I heard, Rangi was staying at Harrison Hansen's house in Pennington, so I guess 'he might as well' keep fit, and help the club with his presence alone....for now !

Pretty sure this is the 3rd year in a row you have assured us that Leeds have 'definitely' signed Brierley so your 'insider info' isn't exactly credible on this forum at the minute. Pretty sure you had some 'concrete' info on Barlow too a while back that also came to nothing.

Rangi is in NZ as far as i'm aware. I am still holding out for him signing and hope we do. To be honest the fact that we are offloading players like Haggerty gives me hope that he might still be coming. He completely ruined us at Salford in the 8's almost single handed so I would love to see him in a Leigh shirt.
