How can that be. Everyone says he has gone on loan to Wakefield. It must be a mistake. Blame Hock

Riddy Reynolds,Burns and Drinkwater all in squad

One on the bench and one to miss out

So far Riddy has been having a groin op, out on loan and now in contention to play for us on Sunday. How much bull are we going to be fed?

DB's column in the observer seems pretty open about the logic of signing 2 half backs after Rangi left. Seems as much about stopping others signing Burns as feeling we need to strengthen in that area. Can't say I agree with it, but time will tell.

That Ridy 'exclusive' came from Matthew Shaw as usual. I can't see it anywhere else. The man is an idiot.

Mark Shaw quote, from his newspaper report on our Summer Bash game with Bradford[i“Mitch Clark was giving his side real impotence down the middle."[/i

He probably meant 'impetus' but I guess he's close!

Burns has the ability to tear up the championship, whether people agree with it or not there can be no sentiment where a goal is being aimed for. Yes we can have opinions, mine is we needed that little bit extra in the halves to possibly have an impact in the 8s. There is no issue in the forwards, its the backs that may be the weak link in the 8s. I am ready to enjoy the ride again with that extra little spark that has been added.

I wonder if he meant that Mitch was a bit slack down the middle?

As I said, the man's an idiot.

When are people going to realise Matthew Shaw is as much a journalist as I am starting full back for Queensland. If it says Matthew Shaw at the top of an article don't bother reading it you can absolutely guarantee it's 100% pure bulls**t he's made up. League Express need to sack him quickly before he permanently damages their reputation, I know I'm not the only person who just doesn't bother reading anything on League Express or Total RL website anymore, there's just no point.

Youre starting to be positive and its off putting - get off them pills

When the cost of production is zero, everyone and anyone can have a go at being whatever they like.
Journalism is especially easy with very low barriers to entry to dissuade the incompetent and tedious.

I have general feel good factor about me at the moment. Can't help it sorry

From what I understand there was an "issue" with the paperwork last week which halted the move, I expect that will be sorted this week with a move to Wakey or elsewhere . Sadly after watching yesterdays performance we missed riddy's game management and his goal kicking. Riddy is at least a 10 point a game man with the boot. 8 years service seems to have been forgotten which is a huge shame

There has been a contract offered to Ridy with a substantial increase prior to the signing of Burns as I understand. To date he has not taken up that offer. The club have to plan for the future as well as now. Wait too long and any decent available players will get fixed up elsewhere.

I would say listening to NJ post interview,Riddy has made his mind up.
