Chisholm's honeymoon period will soon be over.

Unbelievable that some of you are still harping on about his form dropping off and 'honeymoon periods'. No doubt the next time Featherstone come up against a side with a decent pack and get beaten up front, you will somehow twist this into Dane having a poor match and somehow say I told you so.

He's gone now so there's no point continuing the discussion, but even on his worst days Chisholm posed more of an attacking threat than either of our current halfbacks probably ever will.

They won’t sign him permanently and have to pay more money unless they get him for longer than this season and it appears they haven’t, he’s still a Fev player until of 2019. There’s no benefit to Fev with this deal. Possibly we have had to officially remove him from our cap to bring someone in but let’s just say we were paying a % of his wages, Fev won’t have taken on the extra liability to get him for rest of season when they already had him for this period.

This for one


As I understand it he was signed as a loan player originally because his Visa was to play for Bradford, but we were paying all his wages. I now guess a new visa has come through to play for Fev meaning the signing can now be made a permanent deal (well at least for the rest of 2019), but does mean he will count towards the overseas quota for Fev and one less for Bradford.

I'm not totally sure he counts on overseas quota. Something about him playing for France, or having French Nationality, or having a fondness for baguettes and garlic. I forget the exact reason, but I'm sure I remember someone saying he doesn't count and it being something to do with the French.

He counts as non federation trained rather than quota. TBH that whole thing is pretty confusing.

Non-fed is virtually the same. You can have a certain number (I've forgotten how many, it used to be 5) of non-fed/quota players, it's on the same list. If you have 4 quota and 1 non fed then you can't have the fifth overseas player. The only real difference is that he doesn't need a visa.

Bizarre that some on here are still saying he is s**t. You can guarantee he will tear us a new one when he plays against us.






(and I feel fine)

I think he's a good player. I think that he doesn't play how JK wants his HB's to play. I think Rowan Milnes and Jordan Lilley will prove to be a good pairing and I also think that both will develop into better and more consistent players than Dane, in time. I don't think we need to sign another half back unless one of the current two pick up a long term injury. Sounds like that Shackleton is impressing too. Not sure of his age though.

One mention of a honeymoon period (which all players have) and the Chisholm supporters lose their minds! Any comment regarding players having purple patches at the start of a new job aren't unfounded.
