Well hello there brothers in arms, aren't I glad it's you and not that inbred Wigoon lot we've linked up with.

I hope that both clubs will get a lot out of this partnership and it would be great to see any of you at our games in Rochdale. Our ground ois pretty good with good facilities so come along and see how the other half live eh?

Onward Hornets & Saints, onward.

Pugwash.

I have already been told a few of the younger first team lads are saying I am contracted to saints not Rochdale so what happens so surely they would have to agree to going playing in champions one which I can see a few saying I aint going playing for them and trying to get a loan deal in super league

That would probably be fine, but if they don't get a loan deal and they don't go to Rochdale, they don't play.

Yeh but I knew before you so there

Our two Irish lads will need to be finding somewhere to play then as they're both around 23.
Any clues as to whether they're going to find themselves on dual reg?

From what people have said, Cross is a reasonably accomplished back, whereas the Jolly Green Giant has failed to fulfill the potential his size implied.

I think they've gone - I'm pretty sure Cross has left, anyway.
