Out of interest, is he as fat as the other Bulls props?

Over on RLFans they've been saying he'd be one they'd happy to see go on a thread started over a week ago - he was contracted to them for next season too.

Fleming. 37 players and counting......

[Eternal Rover]

Really don't understand this signing.

 

[Monkeymagic22]

Let's see how he plays before making a judgement.

Correct

[lingaro]

If he has one good game for us as long as it's the final I couldn't care less.

I've got to laugh for weeks and weeks if not months all i've heard is we need some big props middles and now we'ave signed a 6'3'' unit some are moaning and groaning

A drowning man (Brian macdonut) 

Would cling to a T.u.rd.. If it floated

Irratic  signings, no direction, freefall

 

 

 

You'll be calling for his head soon, just like the York fans.. The levels of entitlement are unbounded

That's impressive given that Leigh doesn't have a train station

Id wait till you see him play. Bradford fans were excited when they signed him from us but honestly hes probably up there with the worst props ive seen watching Fax. There is a reason that he has had so many clubs with each coach probably thinking he looks the part and they can get some use out of him. The funny thing is when he originally got signed from his amateur club his team mates thought it were a joke and its clearly just a case of him being signed for his build.

After our game at Odsal a few weeks back the only player I'd be interested in would be Sammy Kibula , he was their MOM that day , never stopped trying , tackled Ferguson and then Ipape when we broke from our 20 , even nearly got to Inu at the end of the same move , but he would be a project for next year , he needs to be full time , you'd need 6 months to get him in shape

   Five of my team mates played for Fax in the early seventies and they were playing Sunday League rugby in the Wakefiel, Fev,Cas League just set up my Maurice Oldroyd.Bruce Burton still holds the record for goals in a match 14 v Hunslet early 70's.Les Pearce was coach and the club was skint(we have heard that before)So  he had to scout all the local amateur teams for players to bolster the squad as they couldn't afford to sign them.Fax didn't break any pots but Pearce kept his job until 1980 when Maurice Bamford took over.10 of the Sharlston team i played against signed for League clubs.Much harder today but if we get more playing the game some will come through if they are not over coached.

No sensible York fan is calling for the coach's head.

Kibula had a good game when on loan at Dewsbury against us. Interestingly Bradford fans don't seem to rate him at all

[gazza77]

Our most recent signing takes me back to this news. Hopefully this time the performances will be a little more inspiring.

What sizes are Fleming and Brooks? Also how old are they?

Kibula is either great or shocking

He was loaned out to Dewsbury because after Whitehaven away Dunnings first game, Dunning got all players in a huddle and Kibula want straight down tunnel instead of joining.
