Let's wait and see what you make up next.

Won't be too long before "you've heard" something

Plus his brother is player coach at Yorkshire Carnegie, I wouldn’t be surprised if he came in, maybe he’d play 9 or 13?

Huge gamble especially at hooker imo. Don't see it

I like the idea, but I'd prefer a big wrecking ball winger from RU instead.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Sun Nov 10, 2019 11:13 am  

If Ford comes it wouldhave to be at centre or 6 he isnt good enough for a RL 9 nor big/robust enough for 13 in our 17.

Won't hit the ground running and we don't need an expensive project.

I would like to score the winning goal in the world cup final but it don't mean it will or even should happen.

I would be hugely disappointed if we went anywhere near a signing like this.

Me too, can’t think of any names, but a big raw boned South Sea Islander would fit the bill. Possibly one that could also play fullback if Walker were to get injured.

Edit: What about Radradra?

If we signed Ford to play him at 9 it would be a bit of a gamble but it could be one i see working out he wouldn't count on cap cause he hasn't play Rl professionally has the skill set to play Rl as well, wouldn't be a bad back up kicker for Martin and Gale as thrid choice as well if our spine was next year

1. Walker
6. Lui
7. Gale
9. Ford
13. Merrin

That looks a hell of a lot more organized than we've had in previous 2 seasons.

Id only consider a RU convert for the outside backs, Cokinasinga would be a much wiser target if we were interested in throwing money at a Union player.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Sun Nov 10, 2019 12:33 pm  

Anyone know what position Ford played when he played RL?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Sun Nov 10, 2019 12:35 pm  

It wouldn't be like the sun to make something up, so it's probably true
