Quote: Jizzer "where's this talk of Isaac John being released come from? I thought he might want to prove himself this season, given the chance'"
I guess it's people putting 2 and 2 together.
We need quota spaces to bolster front row, John and Southern barely played last year therefore if you were going to release players these 2 are the obvious candidates.
I would guess that Southern's salary is substantially more than John's so Southern is probably top of the list to be released, but if we need more than one spot available John is next on the list.
