cant read too much into it tbh but halley gets first shot at FB and reardon earmarked for wing at least initially



[urlhttp://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/sport/sportbulls/4785558.Halley_is_number_one_/[/url





edit: couple of things I just noticed. no duane staugheir (sp). have we released him and ive missed it. Also anyone no anything about the number 30 adam o'brien, position etc? cant say ive heard name before.

At least we now know the Burgii numbers for sponsorship purposes;



"27 George Burgess (-), 28 Tom Burgess (-)"



Plus, dispite Macca claiming they dont mean much, they clearly do and its confirmed what I think a lot of us thought was going to happen to key spots with the new guys,



Halley FB

Reardon Wing

Kearney SO

Orford SH

L'Estrange starting hooker



...At least that will be the plan for game 1, after that who knows?

Well FB is the new 2nd row, at least for Bradford

O'Brien's a hooker IIRC and a great prospect. I think he may be the youngest in the squad.

Good to see Macca wasn't swayed by the nostalgia mob wanting Reardon at FB. Halley deserves it and rightly so. In your face tigs

Good to see a back coming through, in Joe Wardle, anyone have any info on this guy!?



On a side issue, I'm going to try and get to more academy games this year. Are they still going to play as a curtain raiser to the main game?

A tenner to charidy they don't end the season that way (injuries permitting)?

I'll start this off, please add as required, just keep 'em in alphabetical order and soon this will become the leading resource for new users who want to have a clue what we're on about
