Joel to Saracens on Thursday
Joel to Quins today
Joel to Leicester on Monday?

Ive got 1 for you, Joel to be at Wigan next season. Remember where you heard it first.

Well thats 1 position we wont be shy of next season. We will have at least 10 back rowers for 3 positions. In Wane we trust.

Not sure he'd be happy playing in front of a dozen people down Leyland Mill Lane.

I've been told its absolutely nailed on that Joel has taken the money at Saracens and is leaving.

I'm just praying that Gareth Thomas isnt being brought in as his full time replacement. What a step backwards that would be.

At first I said i wouldn't blame the two brothers for taking the money & moving to the dark side.
To be honest, after a good week of thinking, I would blame them.

WiganRL deserve a few more years out of the lads in my opinion.
I wont be happy at all

Rumours around Sam & Joel strong at OT tonight

No its its Saracens, to work for a certain Mr Farrell. A name your price contract with an England place.
Wait for the 6 nations next year

Death of the sport if true. In other news, Wigan would suddenly be very, very rich as both players are locked into long term contracts.
