Nothing to see here IMO.

I agree. I think we should have gone for Griffin in the first place, but we went for Furner, and I fully expect he will honour his deal, and think this is just a non news item.

He will have fully understood what was going to happen with Siebold when he took the Leeds job, and Souths had every chance to approach him before that. I would guess that will be his thinking too.

I guess we'll find out later today, but what worries me is that Furner hasn't take the opportunity to rubbish these reports directly, which he could have. Hetherington's comments sounded like he hasn't got the story "from the horse's mouth" either.

However I think Furner is an honourable type and it would leave a mess if he did the U-turn.

Who would run a rugby league club eh?

Side note: the NRL clearly has the highest standard of rugby league in the world - but they are a political shambles off the field, with a ridiculous amount of infighting and contractual shenanigans, players and coaches alike.

Why is everyone blaming GH for this??? I'm confused

GH apparently stating that the get out clause in Furner's contract being which is being referred to by the Aussie press dosent exist.

Well, worst-case scenario there might be a chance of Demetriou or even Bennett. We'll just have to roll with it if Furner stays in Sydney.

More rumours are true than not. Expect Furner to give backwards sometime soon !

I'm joking Sal. Lighten up.

Well, whatever happens it has certainly been an eventful off-season. I wonder if half the rumours emerging are being deliberately leaked by the club to stoke interest to sell season tickets etc. So far the off-season is proving more interesting than the Middle 8s, or at least the performances Leeds were putting in...

I have enjoyed both

Only if he brings the windmill arm with him...

If only you were

It could be even worse we could get John Kear and revert back to the 1990's

Is he having some physio!!
