I don't think tickle will be here next season . If he's not happy let him go . Can see us signing most the forwards we've been linked with lately . Watts , elima , nrl prop and maybe lovegrove or someone else . Looking like a new pack for next season

I think we all know to a certain extent, that there is no smoke without fire. Several people have heard the same things, from I imagine good sources. Everyone can bury the head in the sand, but for me, something is not right. I do however believe it will be addressed, which I would have had no faith in happening before. Think we will have a big change coming, and I expect not too much again next year, with the year after the one where I would imagine things should start to correct themselves.

But, lets face it, we have no god given right, and we need to work hard, accross the board.

Why not? I am.

Luauki lived next door too me and his move was still a suprise and we got on quite well

Yeah I couldn't believe a ooc player clearly not wanted by the club left.

That's different to a international contracted player, where the majority of rumours of why he want's out are .

Sorry, his move to wigan was a suprise

To Wigan it was, considering how he was.

To much upheval I think

Where having a longer pre season, we'll be fine.

A settled side with players Gentle actually wants will be good.

I EXPECT a play off win this year absolute minimum !!!!!!!!!!

I'm not tbh.

Were 1 player short unless we get Holdsworth when Russell leaves, which I doubt.

If we finish 6th and play 7th at home you don't expect a win because we don't have McKinnon ? what about Leuluai at Wigan ? etc etc We won the CC in 1982 with a patched up side etc

Oh god without a doubt.

Wigan are far stronger than us, they could get away with playing Russell at 1.

They can even play O'loughlin at 6 or bring Mellor back from Widnes.

We could have a amazing performance from a patched up side but I certainly wouldn't expect a win in the play offs.

Atm Hkr and Leeds are 7th and 8th 1 and 2 points behind us and, if we carry on playing like we are, in 3 weeks they'll overtake us.
