HOPEFULLY it is 12-14 weeks which means he should hopefully be back for the back end of the season. With us already racking up a decent number of wins, hopefully we should be able to get through this period without him and still be in the play-offs.
I'd personally go with Jowitt or Race. Jowitt didn't let anyone down when he played.
The problem with a loan is they can be recalled at any time. Whilst this isn't too much of a problem for props, wingers etc at HB they need time to form a partnership. Chopping and changing just unbalances the team
As long as we don't go with the ridiculous situation of Joe Brown playing a made up position again.

I wouldn’t mind a 28 day rolling loan for a Keyes (if he is fit) or a McLelland at Leeds who doesn’t seem near a playing shirt at Headingley (also hear George Williams needs a gig for the rest of the year, anyone up for joining bullssquadbooster.co.uk ?)

Well that just sums up the Bulls luck, losing that partnership is a big big blow. He has also been pretty deadly with the conversion accuracy, he surely must of been kicking at around 90% mark?
I would hope Kear has already been making enquiries about a loan replacement. Keyes would seem the obvious player to ask about given he would probably take the least amount of time to settle into our squad. I don't really follow SL so is he likely to be available?

McLelland would be a good shout. Haven’t Leeds just offered him and Gale to Cas in exchange for Trueman? If that’s true McLelland will be questioning his position at the club? Although I don’t like the idea of two young halves together he might be the most realistic?

The options set out in the post above are interesting. I think Golding at fullback, Pickersgill at 6 and Lilley at 7 would be my choice unless we can get another loan player in.

I don’t think we’ll keep Golding for very long but I’d be delighted to be wrong.

Supposedly that’s true according to ITK he’s really accurate like the time he said Ta’ai was coming to bulls… yeah I think Mclelland would be the best option… might be tempted to make his stay permanent too as he would be coming in similar circumstances to Lilley
It just had to happen didnt it. Flying high on the field, just got back to odsal, acadamy decision overturned. Everything was going so well then BOOM!
Wouldnt be Bradford Bulls unless there was something going on we have to overcome. Its going to be a massive loss, and just at the wrong time in the season.
Lets hope he makes it back at some point this year but with there being 13 leage games left to play it might to not be the case.
