Myers wasnt nailed on for this season, its a shame to lose promising 3/4, but a chunk of money for a a maybe on the team sheet is good business. Was gonnan have a haaed time pushsing Blake, Armitage and Gill. Tafua will play left, Blake and Armitage will play right. Myers wasnt 1st choice and might have played less than 20 matches next season duee to our strong recruitment.

Think you will find Armitage and OK will be left

Reading the club's announcement It seems it doesn't matter who we're DR with, if we're not using him he's coming back to you. Sort of like an agreement made between the clubs for his development. He trains full-time at Trinity but if he's behind others, which he will be at his age and development, he'll continue to turn out for you on match days, a sort of win-win. Better than playing the occasional reserves game, or being out on DR at Batley, no disrespect to them mind. It doesn't read anywhere that he's going to be playing anywhere else but either Trinty or the Bjlls next season.

Interesting to see the squad numbers released, they don’t mean everything these days but it does give an indication what Nobby’s thinking is.
Lilley has number 9 & Taufua demoted to 23..
If Lilley does play 9 then we have 4 hookers for 1 or 2 spots in the line up

The first thing i checked for.... I agree it doesn't necessarily indicate where someone will play, but does strongly suggest a different half back partnership this season.

Lilley always looks better at hooker IMO. Noble likes big blokes punching holes down the middle for the dummy half to exploit and Lilley and Souter are great out of dummy half.

Not sure where Ott fits in. Clearly he's back up as we're bound to get injuries at halfback and need to rotate the no9s.

Not sure it is a win-win.

I'm all for players bettering themselves and have no axe to grind whatsoever with him leaving. What I'm not keen on is someone training full-time with another club with different systems and processes, then expecting to "turn out" for us seamlessly.

I'd rather give the starting shirt to some one who has trained and has been part of the club for the season.

A player turning up on match day cold like that wouldn't be fair on him, the club or the rest of the players IMO.

I don't think it's as simple as Trin don't need him so he's in the Bradford team. He's not a shoe-in by any means. I can see him floating around a bit and only the lad himself will know if that feels like a good result.

Myers isn't getting picked by us unless we have a few injuries. I make him 4th choice behind Blake, Armitage and Gill.

Agreed. But with a four match ban he won't be doing much for anyone for a while.
