If you are having to mange the salary cap then it isn't as daft as it seems at first glance. Next year there will be Calderwood, Raynor and Briscoe fighting for 2 spots. A third top class winger is nice and though keeping them all is the ideal way the cap may dictate otherwise. We could be facing another Motu/Briscoe situation here where somebody has to go, even though it is going to be an unpopular loss which may come back and bite hard.

Surely if that is the case, with the ages of the players, then it's logical that it be Raynor who makes way with him being in his thirties. Calderwood is 27/28 ?? Potentially has more years left at the top of his game. I always thought that Briscoe's prefered position was centre anyway ??

Briscoe (Tom) is a centre though.

Why play a loose forward /centre on the wing and inplace of one of the fastest men in the game ?. I dont think Agar could be so stupid.

This has got to be a wind up, POTY by a country mile. If true this will match the many other **** up decisions in recent times.

I still do not believe it.

Brother, you got the Tansey story spot I admit on but plenty of your other rumours turned out to be rubbish.

Well if it is true,it beggars belief............this club is getting more like a sketch from Monty Pythons Flying Circus.

its true, the board are a set of s

IF this turns out to be true, then it's an absolute disgrace. Calderwood has been stand out for us this year, week in, week out. He gives 100% every game and fully deserves POTY, as imo nobody else has played well enough to even come close.

However though, last night Calderwood's body language was all wrong for me. I couldnt quite put my finger on it at the time, but now this thread has emerged I thought it'd be appropriate to say. I could be totally wrong (and probably am) but he really did look like a player who knew he was on his way out? This is based purely on his body language, NOT his performance, as again he gave his all and didnt deserve to be on the losing side.

if noble is coming,then this is no surprise to me.noble must know somthing about him we dont.

We have the nucleus of a good squad for next season. Why do we need Noble and where has this rumour come from?
I'd rather keep Calderwood then bring in Noble.
If this rumour is true then it really does show how distanced the club has become from its' fans.
They've taken the p1ss out of us for too long now but we let them because of our passion for our club.

youre normally pretty close t o the mark with your sources but i dont believe this for one minute. think you may be been wound up.

i'm a calderwood fan but maybe Agar has looked the wingers he has for next year (raynor, calderwood and briscoe) and with the salary cap in mind thinks dropping calderwood and keeping broughton as cover is the best option. not one team in the league has 3 first choice wingers its a waste of salary cap

THIS SHOULD BE IN THE RUMOUR THREAD.

CRAP BEING SPREAD LIKE THIS WON'T DO THE CLUB ANY GOOD

MODS PLEASE LOCK IT OR MERGE IT WITH THE OTHER RUMOURS

THANKS

LOL sorry for shouting but crap like this being said is only to spread more crap on top of what is already being said and there is no prood of this as a fact.
