I've been told that Jamie Ellis is has been signed up. I don't know what the situation is regarding the other two. Jack's a centre, isn't he? I know Lee Gaskell is a halfback.

My theory is that perhaps the incomplete squad numbers have been posted not just to give fans a chance to put the right player on their replica kits but also to show a certain player that he has a secure spot next season.

Gaskell is very highly rated (I think), so I doubt they'd let him go. Unless someone knows something I don't?

Gaskell will definately be here next year as he is still under contract and probably our best young prospect at the moment. I have not heard anything about Ellis and Bradbury apart from rumours on here.

I would have thought that Bradbury would still be under contract and as Ellis is the only true scrum half backup we have to Eastmond. So I would suspect he would also be staying.

You'll be coming to watch Leigh occasionally then, come to think of it you could get two shirts with Armstrong on

There were rumours of Ellis being in trouble due to some off-field indescrestions.

I don't know whether Ashe is up to first grade yet, but if he's as exciting as people say, it would be interesting to see him get a run out.

Andy Yates has just signed up to Hunslett, having left Saints, according to the RL press.

I love the way Saints keeps us informed of the progress or otherwise of our young talent!
