Player swap with Fev?..
England maybe doesn't fit into the culture EOC is trying to build?
A hang over from the unruly class on 2022?.

Disbelieve it if you want, but that's exactly what I'm hearing as well. No one teed up to come in, apart from the two kids from Saints, if they decide to offer one, or both a contract but that's nothing to do with what's happened with England.
Players have family lives too and sometimes that's the most important thing.

Don't worry about losing points the much tougher aspect us gaining points and while we are stuck with Odsal been a ehole thats not changing.

Well, it doesn't quite ring true to me. If they saw him as a big part of the squad, I would expect the club to speak with the player and agree to the release only once a replacement was signed. That would seem a fair compromise if both parties were on good terms? Just my thoughts.

There was a fall out between player and members of the coaching team.

Eliot Peposhi has signed a one year deal. I guess he's England's replacement. Far less experienced but has shown plenty of potential in pre season.

Played a lot for Saints reserves last year.

Wonder what the fall out was sounds like it's turned nasty

Thanks

Peposhi has been there for at least 5/6 weeks now, trying to earn a contract, well before any talk of England leaving. Eliot is a really exciting young talent, played really well in the reserves last season at Saints and will add to the squad. But he's not Brad England's replacement, someone else is coming in.

Sound like someone with insider knowledge?

That's annoying. He'd be ace for us but TBH he's better than Championship. Wankfield beat off Leigh to sign him!

Thanks
