The RFL have finished the investigation now and we are just waiting to agree a fee with Bradford for Kopczak before it can be announced. www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/s ... ord_Bulls/ Bottom of the article.

Bit of an ambiguous comment, isn't it. The RFL are "hoping"!

How do these things work? Oh aiii that's it offer em a penny for every pound owed after changing the company name. The RFL normally accept that sort of thing.

I'm amazed how Bradford are looking for a fee for a player that isn't really theirs in the true gist of things!!!

Give em walker in exchange.

I would guess that might not be far off what happens to save face and it will be Walker plus an undisclosed fee.

If the two clubs don't agree a fee a RFL Tribunal will do it. Not sure of the timescale but it's in the interests of both to sort it asap.

Heaven forbid he gets badly injured playing for Wales whilst in limbo as then it really will get messy.

is walker off to bradford??

is he out of contract with us..i know hes been told he can go

if hes out of contract then doubt we can give him as part of the bargaining

ken davy will have to get his wallet out i feel

the cheek of bradford though after all what the super league clubs did for them to keep them afloat! including our club when we gave the sales of tickets to them, maybe we could ask for that back!

Well the report's findings aren't public knowledge yet, so you might not end up having to pay anything. But if the RFL rule that you DO, then it can only mean that your club reneged on some kind of gentleman's agreement or something similar, and basically lied to the RFL and every other SL club who were also part of said agreement.
This wouldn't be Bradford kicking up a fuss trying to get money out of you, this would be a decision by the RFL based on an independent investigation. Huddersfield would only have themselves to blame.

But like I said, let's wait and see first. After all, we're only going on what's been printed in a Bradford rag so far, which probably isn't the most impartial source of info

Walker has been in the academy / development system for a number of years, i think this means he warrants a fee for us investing in him, much like we had to pay to Bradford for Larne!

That's right fro-nips. We offered him a contract which he turned down so now he will command a fee for anyone wanting to give him a contract.

That article isn't worth the paper it isn't printed on

The report has been sent to the Bulls, it may well say no illegal move was made.
The RFL may be hoping the bulls see sense and let the player go!

I suspect the giants will get the player for nothing, or not at all.
