Not sayings that what i'd do but interesting to hear peoples views

A contract to the end of the season is all well and good, and no supposition please, but the judge said this:

"A prison sentence is what I have in mind."

Ok let me rephrase.

A contract to the end of the season on a pay as you play deal with a similar option for next with clauses.

Didnt the judge in the Cockayne case say something very similar?

It probably all depends on how full the cells are come sentencing day.

No, but as many people pointed out, if Newton had done what he did to Long outside a pub he'd likely have gone down for it.


Only it didn't happen outside a pub and he wasn't convicted of any sort of criminal offense as a result. Therefore to compare the possibility of signing a player who has been convicted of a criminal offense is not the same as signing a player who has simply been a thug on the pitch but has no criminal convictions is absurd.

This is like the Fielden thread. People seem to want to live in the past (and understandably at the moment). But like Fielden I am not sure that getting Reardan back is a positive. H has shown that he is injury prone and didn't set the world alight when he was fit at Wire.

He's been sacked, so yes, contract terminated is just as apt a phrase to coin in this situation.

In further developments, I've heard today that his agent has approached the Bulls and Hull FC about a possible move. The Bulls are yet to get back to him.

Interesting..


difficult one really.setting aside his off field issues Reardon is a bradford lad and only left because wire dangled a big wage which we werent prepared to match. he's a former international who can cover wing/fullback and maybe Centre?.
on the negative side he's proven to be very injury prone since he left and seems to, at best, stopped improving. Also the way he stopped trying in the matches following his signing for wire left a bit of a bad taste.

if he's cheap enough he might give us some more depth and would count as a homegrown player, however it would be a risk and how many fullback.wingers do we need?

regarding the off field stuff, from whats been reported it wasnt as bad as greg bird's alledged offence and plenty on here were prepared to accept him as a bulls player. Also have to wonder whether reardons case would have even gone to court if it didnt involve a couple of relatively high profile RL players.

my position would be we shouldnt bring him back as he isnt a significant improvement over platt/halley and isnt worth the potential bad publicity

I can accept failure, but I can't accept not trying.

I like the look of Halley but McNamara does not seem to fancy him.

Is it just because you have Platt (needs to improve decision making)
