may i ask which bozo thought it would be a good idea to hand out them to a bunch of inconsistent primadonnas this is an absolute joke the club has struggled with money and almost gone bust in recent times and we decide to go throw top dollar at a bunch of wasters


[sizeits an absolute bloody disgrace[/size

Probably some bozo looking to the future, wanting us to retain our players before other clubs came in for them and we were left with which ever players hadn't been snapped up? Its a disgrace that our coaching staff wanted to look to the future I agree SL will be a three year mission, winning this year will mean nothing if our players then got snapped up by SL sides and left us struggling in the years before the next franchise round

It makes me think that a dip in form and perhaps a trophyless season this year could be a blessing in disguise. We win the GF; The super league vultures come in for those players not yet tied up and even possibly buy our players that are (no-doubt by making their interest public, disrupting the players, and signing them for a fraction of their value as often seems to be the case) and we end up having a poor couple of seasons (look at Leigh this year we're not too big to go struggle). And we get complacent because we've already ticked a SL box. Alternatively we become more determined to win next year and keep the majority of our current team.

the whole system is a joke.contracts should not be allowed to renew until the end of the season.at that stage you can determine who is worthy of a contract or not after a full season.this mid season ruling is pathetic and causes all sorts of needless problems.

thr RFL have always been pathetic in dealing with poaching before the deadline, thats why needed to tie em up quickly.

and your view is worthwhile because? Like you said on the other thread... please trot off to watch the Giants & take all others who think the same with you!

Well said griffax! If they dont like it then bye!
