Hi Folks,

Updated 22nd September

Cain Southerwood counts as homegrown I think.

correct AFAIK

heard from a source close to game that andy and micheal tate are no longer with the club, however dudley hill product John Bateman has been training with first team and also another of our products Lewis Reed has signed a years extension, Hopefully both will have a big year with John been tipped to be a big name in the future and Lewis carry on impressing at prop for under 20's

On that list I would think handing Ben Hellewell a new extended contract is a must from what I've seen this year. Outstanding potential IMHO.

(hopefully someone in the know will now tell me its already sorted??...please.)

yeah he has also signed, as too matthew bailey (both dudley hill products

Can take down the Flannery and Meli ruomurs now aswell.

consider it done, Ive not added homegrown to Southernwood yet as I'm not sure he actually is.

I also have not amended the youngsters contracts until Connor Murphy does something in T&A or club announce signings.

we usually announce junior extensions, etc. at turn of year.

Anything on michael Worrincey yet?

Signed seal delievered, he's yours.

I think, given his age, he WILL count as home grown. But I think he has to stay at the club until he's 21 for it to count

diskin added to the list

Halley out for 6-8 months with knee reconstruction.
