Yes he did say in the post that players had let Webster down and was up to them to get stuck in and fix it perhaps his Brother going home helped him to decide "I aint going to win anything here so Im off" at least with him walking it frees things up to bring another player in.

Don't talk sense on here!

MC has made it very clear that this is NOT a response to his speech to the players last week!

A signing that just hasn't worked out - shame!

Would love to see you call him a coward to his face. One of the most committed players I have seen in Perpignan and an outstanding forward too. Somehow I don't think Lopini is the problem here.

I was pleased as punch when we got the guy. With his time out we ain't seen anything of him. it would have been better for him to get stuck in and see the season out. Easy way out for me.

With an offer to play NRl and take his family home, I have no issues with him leaving.

It goes for all players - you are either committed or you can go! Full stop!

I suspected this when he wasn't picked for the weekend. As already stated it is puzzling to say the least, if going to leave then should have done it two months ago when injured to enable greater time to get suitable replacement in.

Otherwise stay for the last few months of the season and show Trinity why you were signed from Catalan whilst giving a 'toughened up middle' in Websters words. Possibly the worst value signing in years.

I'm surprised he has got a contract from an NRL club looks washed up....but if he has why haven't we got a signing fee?

When is Kirke fit? icon_wink.gif

Thought he would be good for us but, ultimately just hasn't played enough to warrant his signing.
It's the gamble that clubs like ours have to take but, so many times, it's just not worth it.

No disrespect to Paea but as he's hardly played we won't really miss him.
The forwards are not the problem in my humble opinion - it's the backs.

sorry to disagree but in my humble opinion i think its the forwards that are getting beat,thats why tim smith is doing nothing hes trying to play behind a beaten pack, and also hes missing paul sykes for his workrate and toughness down the middle,we should have kept him for another season imo.

I'd say it was a mixture of both. The forwards aren't laying down a platform for the halves to work with, but when they get chances the halves (Miller) cock things up. Also the back three do not have the work rate of Mathers/Fox/Cockayne. I'll admit I wasn't a big fan of Cockayne because more often than not he was out of position and the opposition scored the majority of tries down his wing. But we miss his enthuiasm in attack.

When I compare this squad to the one Agar had in 2012 and 2013, the forwards we have now are slightly better but the backs are worse.

Why is the chairman taking the decision on who should go surely he should wait until the new coach is appointed and let him decide because I am sure he will possess more rugby knowledge than our chairman. All he is doing is weakening our squad before a new coach can come in. He is reducing the wage bill because I doubt very much that we will be able to find suitable replacements in the time available.
If reports are correct another player will be reducing the wage bill and options available this week. I would point out that if it was his decision we would still have Agar in charge because it was only because like Webster he thought it best to go whilst Carter saw nothing wrong with either of them staying.
