Quote: In EnemyTerritory "Jamie, I think players out of contract for next year or those being released have been able to speak with other clubs up until this point and that the 1st deadline is simply when clubs can announce signings they've made from this group of players.
If Thacks is still contracted for next year why would he be out there talking to other clubs?'"


read my post again!!

he wants to play superleague he left cas to come to widnes thinking they would get in superleague and they didn't, he has ambition unlike some players. Even tho the 1st deadline has been and gone they have till the end of the year still to sign for other clubs.

But only if they are out of contract. Thacks is still contracted to the club is he not and the announcement at the POM meeting last night seems to suggest that they have no intention of releasing him.

As they have alluded to elsewhere, other players whose Widnes futures are currently undecided were not mentioned so they certainly seem to think he is staying. Also.. didn't he sign at the beginning of this year when it was known that we wouldn't be in SL for another two years?

Wrongo! Didn't sign for us until after the announcement on franchises!

He didn't quite cut it last time in SL and he's still young so IMO should stay on play 1st team week in week out na d be the key player ready for a return to the top flight in 2012 icon_cool.gif

If someone wants Thacks.... THEY GOTTA PAY FOR HIM!

well they will he signed on for 2 years, the club don't have to know you are looking else where. Their agents sort that out.

end off anyways i can't be bothered to argue my case, i know he has looked into other clubs as options even if he does stay at widnes.
Maybe he will get a contract extensionn!!

As far as I know these fora are owned by RLfans.com.
This is NOT your forum, neither is it mine. No-one has made you the forum police. I have had good craic with quite a few off this forum over the years without the need for abuse!!

I felt the need to comment on an incorrect post relating to a current widnes player and as such was a valid post.

I agree he should stay but if he's only signed on for another year Widnes might not keep him if they get in superleague surley he has to secure his future, whether with widnes or another team?

Ford's a very good signing. Lets hope we can keep them coming. We could certainly do with a few heavyweights in the pack.

Quote: In EnemyTerritory "On the topic of Thacks.. completely agree that I'm delighted he's staying. A real talent is that lad who has found confidence to go with his gut feel and the extra time that gives him has made him one of the best backs in this competition. He has a nice understanding with Webster too. It's a partnership that will only get better next year.'"


I'm glad he's doing well for you, he was a major influence on our promotion in 2007 and has a great running game and dummy. The only question mark he has at sl level is his defence, but with time i'm sure he can sort that out.

ps are you trying to take over from fev as the place where all the ex cas players go icon_wink.gif

He's one of the best defending halfs in this division... Though his technique could do with a tad more work he's certainly 1 tough cookie!

Credit to the lad he's realised his weakness from his SL days and is woring to improve it, rather than whinge etc... top stuff!

P.s. No as we only take the young good one's with hot prospects icon_wink.gif

Not really a lot to add to that.. his defence is very good and has obviously improved since he was at Cas.

He certainly had an impact that year for you, if for no other reason than it gave Brough a firm kick up the derrier. He throws an awesome dummy!!!!!

Will be quite frank, not really seen anything of the lad, but comes with high recommendation so that'll do. COuld pair up well with young Paddy.
