As far as I recall we offered Ruan a professional contract which he rejected stating that he thought he was worth more, the contract was the same type and size we offered to all our Young players at that time. Therefore I don't see any reason to go chasing him now to come back. Of all the forwards we have lost in recent years, that we may want back, Ruan is low on the list. Goudemand and his partner have just had a child so I think he is wanting to return to France for family reasons, would be a good pick up for Toulouse for next year regardless of which league they are in. Cant see Catalans Dragons resigning him.

Ruan has never lived up to the hype.

Seems more of a Cas/top half of Championship type of signing maybe.

May be Ruan needs to be given a chance to develop in a good coaching environment with Powell?

Yes next year we will find out if Powell is a good coach

Come on! His career speaks for itself.

You are clearly just trying to wind people up now.

Either put a point forward, like who you would sign if you think ours are all rubbish or why you think Powell isn't a good coach
.......or give it a rest.

A leg ends posts speak for themselves too

Wouldn't want Ruan,he looks average at best imo.

Poor guy been coaching decades and your weighing his credentials and ability up on one season.

Both will do a good job at Fev if they're signed

Agree, I’d be surprised if teams like York etc aren’t showing interest in Boothroyd.

I think both will go well in champ next season.

I know he has played a lot on the left for us, but I think Olpherts playing on the right wing with Reece Lynne inside him would be a superb combination for Doncaster

I think they said Boothroyd has already signed for Fev at the end of season dinner

You mean Reece (glue fingers) Lynne. Not the best at passing the ball. Usually through lack of wanting. Good athlete but perhaps should swap to back row now.
