A birthday party with a fly past by Wolfie?

Agree, and his charge sheet means the bans will be north of 3 games. Pity, as he's better than Charnley.

King
Mamo
Sita
Walker
Ashton
Roebuck
Dean
Doro

Austin if there's no alternative ready to be 1st choice.

Said it before, I don't mind Sita and would take a punt on him with a new coach. If Powell also says "nah" then I'll admit defeat

We've a coach who's leaving, a coach who's joining and potentially 12-14 players off contract. Cant blame anyone for wondering, doesn't mean I don't want Jason Clark to score under the sticks at OT to win us the GF

We need to keep King for absolute certain he would be very, very difficult to replace. Ashton and Dean I would like to see given contracts as I think they both have bags of potential that I would like to see under Powells guidance. If hill wants to stay i would definitely be giving him a year deal, if he wants to go to leigh to finish his career then he should be allowed that choice.

Lineham and Mamo I would keep personally but the rest I wouldn't be too upset to lose from a first team perspective.

To go - Inglis, Sita & Clark .. I would be very surprised if they are given new deals. I would anticipate all three to return down to Oz. I would expect Kibula to leave as well given his lack of opportunities and recent long term injury troubles.

Austin, Hill and Lineham I’m quite undecided about.. a lot will depend on whom else we are in for in the market, form of the players given their age and our salary cap restrictions. Plus, they may get better/longer deals elsewhere... we know Leigh have being eyeing up the return of Hill for quite some time.

Ashton, Dean, Doro, King, Mamo, Roebuck & Walker I would expect all to be retained given their youthful ages and hopefully under Powell will get more exposure to first team action. (This doesn’t relate to King & Mamo obviously!)

Austin can go for me, if Widdop goes aswell i'd make a play for Trueman or if that's a no go then Theo Fages is off contract with Saints this year and a handy half.
Peter Ma'atautia straight in for Inglis.
Keep Hill, King obviously (4 year deal), Ashton, Mamo, Dean and Walker.
Lineham if he could stop being an idiot i'd keep in a heartbeat, BUT like someone said elsewhere he's missed something like 28 games through suspension so for me let him go.
Cooper and Mulhern starting, with Philbin and Hill off the bench next year with Butler, Doro and a new prop would be good.
Hughes to 13 with someone else at 2nd row, robson maybe?
Luis Johnson is being played in his actual 2nd row position at Hull KR and is looking good. So again screams what the hell are our coaching team doing, and why are our player getting worse?
I can't wait for Powell to come in and assemble a new backroom staff.

Honestly though why would Toby go to KR? No disrespect but why KR?

Sack full of a money, in a short career, also play with his brother again, playing for tony smith.

Also, wages of that magnitude would also suggest that they're hitching their wagon on him being a top player, does he get that love in our current squad?

I think his next salary needs to recognise that he is one of the best centres in SL now, we have plenty of cap space available so let's hope we don't try to do things on the cheap.

Have we had a list of off contract players released yet? One normally gets released round about now I think, sometimes players have signed but no official confirmation, if his name is on the list though, he's testing himself in the market, which you can't blame him for.
