Quote: His Bobness "Chester was quoted in League Weekly on Monday as saying Allgood is on course to return to the squad for the second round of the middle 8. He is lifting weights & doing strength work on his shoulder, he has some markers to hit before he can do contact work but is expected on the training field next week.
Also said that Puletua could yet remain with Rovers in 2016, Chester is going to have a chat with him about delaying his retirement. Sounded like Chester is going to try to talk him into it he said he believes he is fit enough to do another year if his heart is in it.
All of which suggests that Allgood has not been de-registered and that somehow Puletua does not count on the quota or non fed.'"
Demonstrating yet again that I know knack-all!
It did occur to me that the 8s might count as new season and re-registering might be possible.
But if Allgood did come back, we'd have 8 non-fed by my count (fwiw - not much, clearly):
Sio, Allgood, Kelly, Mantellato, Blair, Tilse, Chisholm and Puletua.
I wonder if TP got a discretionary 'messed about by Koucash' exemption. Could be owt frankly.
