Interesting and sounds possible but not sure why Clark would be keen at the moment other than Ferres or Burrow could play the role of Parker.
McDermott and Hardaker to Wigan for Wane and Tomkins for mine

Why would any player be keen to arrive at Leeds atm? Only reasonable explanation would be if the player really wanted to be back in Yorkshire which we've heard Clark does. Add in that it's the logical position we most need to sign someone in and have wanted him before.

Get the logic. big move for a Cas lad. Let's be honest we are just in a guessing game based on other posts. Your idea sounds as likely as any. I don't want Colonel Mustard or Travis Burns.

| I can see where the idea comes from for an exchange for Clark with Watkins or Hardaker as all three have lost some status and may benefit with a move and I guess there would be good lines of communication between these two clubs. But I don't see how this will massively shock the whole of SL.
I can also see why those "in the know" would want to protect their sources if this were told in confidence. However if something is told in confidence it should remain in confidence so to post on a public forum sufficient of the confidential story for others to guess the identity of the players involved risks depressing the morale of the team even lower than it is already.
The story is claimed to be massive which, if so, can only involve senior star players and most likely to be those whose bad form suggests their minds are not on their performance on the field. What I would like to know are the reasons behind why the player and the club are unhappy with each other.

| I believe the swap deal in question is between Zachery and Konrad Hurrell but i very much doubt this will happen. Hurrell currently earns $500k a year and although the Warriors will contribute towards his wages he still has NRL teams like Manly and Gold Coast chasing him so why would he come to SL at his age??
Not sure why we would want a centre either to be honest even with the way Watkins has played this year.
Also why this game of swapsies would send shockwaves through SL i have no idea either.

| Here we go again. Frosties and Gotcha making up more rubbish. If something is so confidential and you've been sworn to secrecy, then why mention anything at all on a public forum? That is attention seeking at it's best.

It wouldn't be shocking but it depends on what people consider shocking. Only JJB and McGuire leaving Leeds would shock me personally and I doubt that would shock the whole of SL. Likewise it's a small group of players who would join us that I'd consider shocking such as Tomkins, Roby and O'Loughlin or a big name from the NRL. Anything else might register a slight bit of shock for Leeds fans and supporters of the other club involved, but not the whole of SL.

Spot on. When the person told them did they say "you can tell people what's happening just don't mention any names". Personally if someone said to me don't mention it to anyone that would mean not saying anything at all, not telling the internet but excluding names. They've obviously not respected the persons wish for confidence at all (but think they have by excluding names) , they've just opened up a game of finger pointing and guess who at all the Leeds players.

| Baldwinson is going to hull Kr and Peacocks coming back on a 5 year deal......... Can you feel the shockwaves?
Alternatively the swap deal is Brian Mac and Mitch Achurch swapping roles.

| This is classic attention seeking. I'm not saying what gotcha or Frosties have heard isn't true but to come on here and Frosties in perticular claiming he has info that will shock the whole of super league is a cry for attention as clear as day. As others have said if told that info confidentially then be secure enough to keep it to yourself. Don't be so desperate to appear in the know that you post a huge statement but then don't back it up with any info.
Hardaker to Huddesfield and Frosties not so honest mate brierley to Leeds.

Not putting it out there isn't really working out too well for you either is it by the look of the responses.
And that Brierley never happened justified peoples doubts.

Why not mention it? If Gotcha or Frosties had said that they didn't know the names but had been told 2 players want to leave etc then we'd still be in exactly the same position. Except somebody would have challenged that on the basis that they didn't know the names and so were making it up.
If no-one ever mentioned anything they've heard on here it'd be rather dull.
I'm more than happy to say who the player I was told about is after things are sorted and who told me the information says its ok to.
I don't care whether it's wrong or not, though it's highly unlikely to be wrong. I was merely backing up Gotcha's post that there's 2 players "unsettled" for want of a better word.
I don't know anything about a swap deal so and I'm intrigued by Frosties claim that it'll be big news. We'll just have to wait and see.

Before any bitchfest begins, although appears some might already be making assumptions, this has not been said. It would be fair to say there is unrest, but the reason for release from contract has not been said what you have just stated.
My own posts were very clear, and seems also backed up by Him. I stated two players had asked to be released from their contract in addition to Baldwinson. I did not give names, or why, for a very specific reason. The club were still talking with the players as far as I was aware, well one of them anyway. There is nothing wrong in stating a release from contract had been requested, but to me there is to state why at this stage, and I don't see why there has to be a reason given.
The issue on a swap is pure speculation, and I stated that as third hand. But I don't think the swap either way will have a bearing in the end on contract release.
