I think Purdo extended to 2011 as well, so he was with us for his testimonial year.

I was surprised at the announcement that he'd left us, as due to there being so much talk about it, I'd assumed that it was common knowledge by now!

I'm surprised as as far as I know their hasn't been an announcement yet, just a comment from BBC

Has he definitely gone? Maybe DH offered him a deal "if" the ownership/investment issue was cleared up by the end of the season?
Would be great if it could be announced that he was staying at the same time as the money matters are put to bed.
I was suprised to read this
“I’ve been told Quins did all they could to keep him, [sizeincluding a wage match[/size,” said BBC London 94.9’s rugby league reporter Ian Ramsdale.

Im sure I've read somewhere tonight that at Friday's game it mentions we'll be doing the usual goodbye bit at the end of the match....saying goodbye to Danny Orr, Will Sharp, Mac, and Louis

4 year deal, and while never happy about players leaving us, what does this say now about youth development in London, lets hope he can now improve again and become a regular in the England set up.

Ambitious lad who clearly wants to win something. Good luck to him but hopefully we see him back.

Good luck LMS

Well done Louie, thanks for your time at Quins and I hope you are a great success at Saints........agree with Homer that this is great Kudos for the game down south.

Unfortunately we have now lost 50% of our song repertoire!!!!

this is proof that london rugby league works. a londoner, signing for the most successful super league era side. its sad that he is leaving london, but its good that london rugby league can develop a player who will play for such a strong side. i hope he's a continued success. him personally. not his new team

Chorus
Meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the Fair
Don't tell me the lights are shining
Anyplace but there
We will dance the "Hoochie-Koochie"
I will be your "Tootsie-Wootsie"
If you will meet me in St. Louis, Louis,
Meet me at the Fair.

Good luck to him

We'll meet you at Saints Louie Louie
Meet you at the Chems

Disappointed he has signed a four year deal. Had hoped it was just a two year deal and hopefully by 2013 we'd be in a position to seriously challenge for honours and offer him a good deal on top of that.

Really chuffed about this, like watching him play and it will be nice to have a bit more aggression in what looks like an excellent pack for next year:

Graham
Roby
Perry
Soliola
Wilkin
Flannery

Puletua
