Quote: wrencat1873 "IF the club were serious about the deadline that was set for Hampshire signing and he didn't sign, surely, they will have made plans for his replacement, be that Walker from London or someone else.
I like Hampshire's busy style and as a running HB he has looked more likely than any of our other pivots to break open opposition defences BUT and it's a huge but, if the lad wont accept what has been offered and the club believe that the offer is reasonable, then the lad will be off, just as soon as someone makes him a better offer.
Nobody could blame him for doing so as RL is a short career but, equally, you cant have your halves always on the brink of leaving.
Now, more than ever, we need some stability (and quality) in the halves.
Brough looks to be past his sell by date and Miller, for whatever reason just hasn't offered his usual contribution.
I guess only Chester and the coaching staff know why we have been poor in the halves but, on current form and based on what we should "expect", Brough is offering lease, with Miller next worst and Hampshire 3rd.
Certainly worth having a re shuffle for our remaining games'"
I'm sure I've read somewhere that he has been offered better terms at other club/s (?) but he has turned them down and wants to stay with us ??
For those that haven't seen this weeks article in League Express from Aaron Bower he quotes Rocky..
"It's been a crazy week with things going on, but I love this club and it means a lot to me coming from here. Hopefully we can get something sorted out and I can stay here....Last year I didn't sign my contract until after the last game, and it's madness. I don't want to be waiting around because I'm on my toes...…..in the last couple of weeks, I've personally felt some fatigue in my performances, so the break is going to do us good....This club means a lot to people, including myself, and I don't want to see us getting beaten like that." (against Wigan)
So he clearly doesn't want to leave, so we just have to hope that all the relevant parties can get back around the table and thrash out a deal
