rumours are still its us but not over the line just yet

woolford comfirmed we are talking to him but a long way to go on the deal being done yet, interesting hes known him since he was 14, woolfords son used to play against him!

what i liked hear him say also was hes a great kicker but can manage a game..... this is something brough fails to do manage a game

confident uate will play for the giants next season, close to announcing that one

It seems you are about to sign parramatta forward suaia matagi for 2019.

We are being linked with a lot of names. Be nice to actually get a signing!

Hastings would be a top signing on par with Bodgy.

Thought brough had just signed a year extension

can put this one to bed then!

looks like the agent just going for the biggest deal he can get, fair enough but might not be the type of person we need.

Says on another forum we have given up on Hastings, and are now being linked with Sandow, Press conference Mon, I assume that will be to announce the new forward but who knows.

sandow not joining giants

Aah well we can always dream like we have for the last 60 years

........ with a few nightmares thrown in and among along the way eh? ....like last week!

apparently off to salford just for the end of this season...

That is them safe in the middle eights then.

We do not want to be in the middle eights with our squad as it is .

Thought Salford were struggling for money and the fans were keeping them afloat?

Hastings probably wants a short spell because of the higher money on offer in the NRL and at age 22 it is where he wants to be. So a short spell in S/League where hopefully for him he will be a stand out and prove he can behave himself would make sense. It’s what Barba appears to be doing albeit over a slightly longer period.

He has maybe had NRL interest to sign him next season if he can do this.

We probably and for once rightly were looking for a longer term half back solution and would have wanted at least a 2 1/2 year contract and with Brough being available again three months of Hastings would not make sense if we have an eye on someone else albeit possibly not available until 2019.

Much as it would have been nice to have a young quality NRL half what’s on offer appears to be all about Hastings and little for Huddersfield so for once good move to try get him with his knowing Woolford but wise to withdraw when we did.
