Difference is we are now financially sound. I think the only problem would be if an NRL club comes sniffing around, we may struggle then because of the lifestyle. But he wont be going anywhere else in superleague anytime soon i wouldn't have thought unless the offer is ridiculous for both him and the club. Can't see anybody coming up with that kind of deal for him at this stage if his career. Half a million quid and young Hampshire and a 120k a year for him might get talks going but its not going to happen.

The arrogance of some Wigan fans, apparently they'll just sign TJ off us whether we like it or not!
Don't shoot the messenger, but according to Gary Schofield at the ground today said Wigin had signed Carney on a four year deal from next season.

| Toms try was probably the best try I've seen at BV and maybe in a Trin shirt, but, watching York at Rochdale I witnessed probably the best try outside SL by Yorks FB Delaney? Must have rounded most of the opposition to score, if there's somewhere that this can be viewed it's a must see.

York seem to be producing some good players at the moment.
Is this why Jordan has gone there?

If Chester keeps doing what he's doing and keeps playing local lads who are up to it. You don't need big names, just passionate players who connect with the fans and I think Chester knows this.

I think it's because of James Ford the York coach and the BS regime, but I must say they remind me of the present Trin side, playing with passion a for each other plus plenty of game time for Jordan. I'd like to see how they'll fare against Dewsbury in the CC, but I'll be at Wakeys game. Fordy's got a good side I believe will be in the championship next season.

I think the opposite; it definitely will be to his benefit to not get swept up with the hype that's surrounded him after 3 good performances over Easter, and to stay with a club that can tolerate his inevitable ups and downs as a young, developing player. If he goes to one of the perceived 'big' clubs, firstly he'll be behind proven internationals in his position, and when he does get a game, the expectation will be huge - enough to destroy a young lads confidence.
I've no doubt that he'll go on to bigger and better things, but doing it now would, in my view, be a mistake; just hope he doesn't have a greedy agent who sees only the short term and doesn't really care about his welfare.

The 'benefit', is if he can fulfill his international dream whilst still at our club.
Hopefully Wayne Bennett will bring some, 'not what club you play for' sense to the England set up, to help strengthen our game through all the clubs

| I'm pressed with his physic, for a young lad of his age he shows good balance and strength, he is also show a maturity above his age and comes across as a level headed lad in the interview,
who would of thought we could produce these players time and time again with our troubles at the club, look where Pitts and Ferguson are now when they took the leap to the next level, you might be right Bren but sometimes you have to take a punt and push your self or you might regret you didn't

I get that - but the timing of that punt is critical; do it before you're ready, end up totally out of your comfort zone and away from the people and culture that gave you confidence, and you might regret that you did.
I'd never advocate holding a young player back, but he's very, very young and at the very start of his career; anyone advising him to do anything other than continue to learn and develop at his home club is, in my view, giving him very bad advice.
