It was on the cards and personally I thought he's be going back after 1 season before we announced his signing.
Gold Coast said that they wanted him for 2019 and couldn't get him within the cap for 2018.

meanwhile, bryson goodwin is having the time of his life, he's on his 3rd or 4th european holiday so far this year, maybe tyrone needs introducing to shortbreaks.com

It's not that surprising, it's fairly obvious that he hasn't settled. I do think he's a good player and he would have come good and he still could to be fair. Its a shame but better we have players who want to be here.

It is a bit of a disappointment but then again so has he been. If he has anything about him he will morph into the player we thought we were signing in the first place and take us to the GF playing in a more relaxed frame of mind and showing his undoubted talent.

Good authority tells me Mellor is trying to get out of his Widnes contract to come to Warrington.

If we wait until the end of the season we can have him for no transfer fee.

under contract till the end of next season according to the Guardian.

Get him a house in Warrington then tell Widnes he is home sick, seems the easy way to get out of a contract.

Plausible

Not if they get relegated.

kev brown was under contract.

...and I don't think there was too much left on his, plus transfer fees seem little object to us.
We could loan them Tom Smith in return?

oooh no, not tom smith, i'd be against loaning tom smith.

Yes Morgan would have been a better idea...doh!

I’d prefer this option with Eastmond slowly re-introduced to RL via the dual reg. Mellor is no world beater but he’s well above average as we’ve see plenty of times against us. Danny Walker isn’t too bad if we want another local lad back.
