I always felt he had the ability to be a good prospect when he was younger.
After struggling to make it in the Halifax team I thought he might have blown his chances.
I would be pleased to see him making the 17 until the end of the season.
Certainly above Gibson and Watkins in the pecking order for me.
How he will go next season with Delaney and probably Coady in front of him remains to be seen.
No doubt he will end up at Hull on loan.

Apparently on his way to Catalan is Ratu

Permanant or loan?

Shakes head in disbelief.

I dont know the full details, just a lad i know said he was off to Catalans. Hopefully it is just on loan.

You old pedant you

I thought he had a fairly impressive debut game against Wigan. Quieter in the second, but over the two matches, should be worth an extended run in the side.

What are the rules about payment of a fee if a young player is signed by another club when his contract runs out?

Do we get more (if anything) if said player has suddenly made a few 1st team appearances?

If the clubs can't agree a fee it would go to a tribunal. Whilst nothing is set in stone, the fact a player has played 1st team rugby, or not, would influence the committee's decision.

Is that for this season or next Frostie?

My sources sniffing around Headingley have told me that an announcement will be made in the coming weeks about Ratu's future, both at club and international level.

He's just found zimbabwean great granparents and is joining captain Danny Brough leading the team to world cup glory?

He was in the Fiji squad for the 9's last year, and the provisional World Cup squad.

are there still times a player doesn't get picked because the number of appearances increases the salary?
