Mathers was a great player at Leeds and although at full back played as an extra stand off. He'd be a fantastic addition to the Bulls squad. I can't believe the Bulls fans are deriding him as average given what you presently have in the backs.



He could easily step in and play half back and make you a better team than you are at present and I am not so convinced that Kearney is a better full back.



Plus, he has bucketfuls of one thing your team is desperately missing, enthusiasm.

Kearney was a regular full-back in the NRL and was selected for country origin aswell. Mathers can't even get the England no.1 shirt, Kearney is a much better player.



Kearney at stand-off or SH isn't as good, maybe you're confusing Kearney at FB with Kearney in the halves??

I don't think Mathers is a poor player but I just question whether he would add enough to our squad at stand off? I haven't seen a great deal of him at 6 but the last thing we need is another 'fill in' stand off who doesn't have a very good kicking game. With limited funds, we cannot afford anymore utility players playing out of their favoured positions.

this lad is cocky, mouthy, firey and loves nothing more than winning...i have hated him at every club he has played for.



but i would love to see him bring that to our squad right now, as no one else seems interested!!!!

Plenty of enthusiasm out there tonight vs Wire but I agree Mathers would be a useful no6 for us.

as he still plays for warrington, i am still allowed to hate him...which is only compunded by this tweet from him after the game



'well it was the one of the worst games I've watched for along time but at least the boys got the points in the bag... too easy!!'



div!!

He's miles behind Kearney at Full back.



That said we need a six but for the salary he'd command we could get a better six so it's a no for me.

Watching him in his junior days at Leeds IMO he was always the better 6 than Danny boy.

IMO he'd do a very similar job to Karl Pratt. Some else we all detested till he arrived at the club and look at the job he did for us.

Well like I say, I've not seen a great deal of him at 6 but I'll trust peoples judgements who have. If he could be our 1st choice 6 then perhaps he's worth a 2 year deal because he is a decent player. Can he kick the ball though?

He's going back to Headingley.

To play what position?



Mathers wouldn't stay on at Warrington because he wanted to be first choice. Why would he want to be 2nd in line to Brent Webb?



Edit : Okay, you may have meant Leeds Carnegie
