Totally agree with this Chester! Ben has really stood up since he came back from Bradford on loan couple of years ago and unfortunately for him, his injury this year was a bad one.

Rhys is another lad unlucky with injury as he had bagged the number 2 jersey and made that wing spot his own.

Re. the Evans brothers really hope that's not true.

Ben was superb last year and the timing and severity of his injury was a disaster - I really expected him to kick on in a way that, as yet, Laithwaite hasn't unfortunately.

As for Rhys, yes the lad has been unlucky with injuries but he can cover three positions (and I don't just mean play, but play excellently in three positions) and is brave, pacy and a good finisher. Given the choice of retaining Rhys, Gene or Kevin I'd go with Rhys every time and that is in no way a slur on anyone else.

The Evani (plural of Evans) are contracted till 2017 so I can't see it being true unless there's been an approach from the NRL/RU, in which case I think we'd get a fair bit of coin in return.

We could see a real turnaround in the squad at the end of this season.

OUT
Asotasi to probably retirement
Monaghan to Catalans
ratchford to Wigan
Myler to the NRL
Bridge - Contract is up i think.. No new one signed yet.. probably going to play 6 for the Storm
Evans brothers

IN
Gidley
Gaskell
Hampshire
Lineham
Eastmond
Cronk

have i missed anyone?

Hill to Leigh

The four half back system is certainly innovative, let's see if it pays off.

Not a chance.

Big Roy is to take up his 1 year option for 2016.

Christ I hope not, if it is in his favour I would just either loan him out all year or pay his contract out and get rid. Worst forward we've had for quite awhile.

Only a wind up

Don't think that he's any worse than Leikvoll or Rauhihi were.
