Good luck Elliot.

It was always gonna be Catalans right from the word go.

Maybe they'll appreciate him more over there.

Think there's more to EW leaving than meets the eye

Oh yes.

Go on then, enlighten us.

Story done and dusted IMO and done in the proper way. Elliot wanted a chance to test himself at the top, hence a top 4 team, he lost his appetite for us unfortunately and he handed in a transfer request. Franny stopped him playing because he wasn't 100% committed and, as others have said we have more cover in second row, so we might aswell give someone like Oliver Roberts the experience than just play Elliot for the hell of it.

He has now stuck to his word and sealed a (hopefully big fee) move to Catalan!

Nothing more than that in it.

Hate the term undisclosed fee we deserve to know how much or what sweeteners we get for any fee paid for one of our players, same as football just tell the fans the price agreed, but I think it may be a chunk less than the salford offer,

we were under no immediate pressure to sell so its safe to say club were happy with amount paid and he didn't go for peanuts. Plus we save his wages for rest of season too.

I think it's safe to say its almost certainly not as much as we think it should be.

We got this.

It's a beauty

TBH, undisclosed fees can work in our favour.

Say for example Whitehead went to Salford for the £125k that was reported in the press. That means that all the other clubs in SL know that the Bulls have £125k to spend if they wish, so should the Bulls come knocking regarding a player then it puts that club in the driving seat in so far as naming the price goes.

It's the best move for both parties to be honest. Elliott has done all he needs to do under his contract [though I do have a certain sympathy with Tigertot's POV], he's told his team mates and asked, properly, for a transfer which has been granted, so what he's done is completely above board.

Like everyone else on here I haven't a clue about any 'background' stuff so I have to assume that Franny had his reasons for leaving him out of the team; he's the gaffer and it's his decision to make.

It is, if you can't keep your best players happy (wherever the fault with that lies). Watching SL now is an increasingly bittersweet experience as most weeks you see a crop of our former players doing well for whoever is on the screen. Just at Cats now there'll be Whitehead, Leon, Menzies and Elima.
