A few notes:

1. I split the tables mainly because before you couldn't distinguish between the Northern players and the SL players unless you happened to know, which sort of defeats the object of having the list.

2. I have, as far as I know, only included players for the Super League side that have actually played for the first team. So, for example, I didn't include Ryan Hudson and Higham.

3. The nationality flag... not sure what to do about that? At the moment its use is confused between nationaility and the national side that a player may have played for. As an example Graham Mackay is, to my mind, rightly shown as Australian in the players section and as having played for Scotland in the rep section. However, James Lowes played for both GB and Ireland and is shown as Irish in the players section. Maybe, at some point, I'll make place of birth the criteria for the players page?

Point of the page?

edit

I don't understand the point of this page. It is just a list of former players without any notable and most don't have links to wiki pages. Would it not be better to either introduce some notability element - perhaps the ‘Players earning International Caps while at Bradford’, ‘Challenge Cup & Championship Winning Players’, and captains, coaches, leading point scorers, players of the season etc’ or just create a category of Bradford Bulls players and leave it at that. As new articles are writing just add the category. RichardLowther (talk) 22:54, 31 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
