So, Whats getting talked about on the forums, in the stands and in the meida...and at the moment....ive picked up on the following thus far....

[u[iOUTS[/i[/u

Pitts - Leeds
Martin - Cas
Drew - Cas
Brough - Hudds
Blanch - Union

[u[iINS[/i[/u

Tronc - North Queensland Cowboys
Broughton - Leeds
Newton - Bradford

[u[iSeemingly out of favor/possibly on the way out[/i[/u

Rooney - Barrow
Bibb - Hull Kingston

[u[iOther speculation of incoming players[/i[/u

Jeffries - rumours of serious financial trouble at bradford and him wanting to come back

Tickle - he's been mentioned.

Obst - it has been mentioned on here that a long serving overseas man will depart

so, potentially, 8 men departing, 5 incoming and seen as we promote youth at our club, maybe 3 to graduate to full time contracts...8 ins, 8 outs...

thoughts anyone?

You ought to add a list of players who are out of contract and as of yet have not been signed on

Atkins is another one to add to the "out" list - either to Hull or Leeds, and I'm not sure I'd want to see BJ back at Trinity given that he was "wanting to go home" when we released him a year early & then signed for the Dulls.

Not sure if Bibb if a definite departure as JK has said that "we felt it would be a great opportunity for Kyle to gain further first team experience in a different environment". The door hasn't been closed officially on Rooney, but I've said before that there's no way he should get another contract with us.

Sam Obst might the the "long-serving overseas player" that will leave, but I wouldn't be at all surprised if it was JD. Whichever one it is has given their all for the club & deserve a great send off and our best wishes for the future.

bj didn't leave to go back to oz. left because we wanted to bring brough and drew in. worked well for both parties at the time. can't see sam going anywhere. unfortunately think jd will hang his boots up

I believe the academy are giving out 4/5 first team contracts for next season due to the success of the U18's, which is a great thing for the club.

theres seems to be truth with Martin in a swap for Evans.
Dont know about drew, even tho its going around.

As I dont see Martin play week in/week out, whats this guy like. What i've seen of him, his he seems to be on par with Evans and have a decent kicking game too
??

One of your outs is in and one of your ins is out!



Otherwise - you're getting there!

Giz a clue then. Go on you know you wanna

Corrected - apologies!

I'd hazard a guess that the out that's in is Brough.
And the in that's out is Tronk!

BJ - do not want him back under any circs.

martin for evans do not see the point unless its cost

drew - would like him to have another year if he thinks his body can hold up.

tronc - yes please on the very very little i have seen and what i've heard from others

obst - good honest pro but maybe time for a change for both parties

brough - really hope he stays, we will not get as good as him unless from NRL

tickle - steady away and as long as he doesn't kick then great

like the idea of giving a couple of the young uns a chance to step, should help us concentrate a few resources on quality rather than quantity.

hendo to leave? think his contract is up?

korki - would only take him back if the price is right. hasn't proved it for long enough at any club to be throwing decent money at him

don't how much of this is true but had a text that BJ is moving to Celtic

On, then off - then on????

Rooney to Hull www.express.co.uk/posts/view/112 ... -on-Rooney

Rooney to Hull www.express.co.uk/posts/view/112 ... -on-Rooney

no that's a light switch

No that's a BJ!

He might be but ti depends on there cash situation.... If that move falls through then coming back to Wakey is possible

Would guess at Brough and Blanch being the two outs who are in. Out of the "ins" would hope it was Broughton who wasn't coming (not that I have anything against him but would prefer the other two). I was under the impression Tronc had already signed - hope so, he is the main one on the list that I would want for next year.

I Don't think you are far from the mark, lets hope so anyway.

Talking to Blanch at Quins game and he told me he wants to stay at Wakey.

Right I have my bullet proof vest on.





I thinks its time for JD to hang his boots up

I don't think we can get a good season out of him now.
Would like to still see him involved with the club though.

Kear did go on record just after his injury and say that he would defiantly be offered a new contract. I don't know if anything has happened to change them circumstances.

An offer been put on the table by all accounts. Let's hope he stays as IMO he is our best winger by some way and amongst the best in the league

Whats happened to Luke George

Would a RU club take the risk with Blanchie after his injury 'break'?
