Is this the signing that was supposed to be announced at the fans forum then?

Think that could be larroyer,but am not sure,sir stan will no doubt put you in the picture in his own indomitable way,as he is sure to know.

Burns staying, straight from the horses mouth at tonight's forum.

Great news,just a shame he didnt seem to want an extension.

Why didn't folk understand the scott taylor quote of " I am contracted for next year" ??? that doesn't mean scott would be there next season.
Travis didn't say " I will be playing for HKR next year did he ???

what did he actually say (people should realise he is not going to come out and say im leaving at a fans forum)

I believe he said " I am contracted to rovers next year"
Someone correct me if im wrong he probably said Yes I will be playing for HKR next year

Surely after last year's spat about paea lying to the fans, hudge isn't going to sit next to travis and let him openly string everyone along? He'll deffo be at rovers next year

I think he said 'I am contracted for next year so yes I am staying/will be here', really can't remember the exact words after the I am contracted bit.

It certainly left plenty of wriggle room.

To me it said nothing more than he is staying whilst he is contracted which he undoubtedly will. If Wigan buy him out of the contract then he's no longer contracted.

Maybe it's a done deal being kept quiet in everyone's interests or maybe Wigan haven't as yet agreed to meet Rovers valuation. Hopefully the latter and Rovers dig their heels in.

I think it's got to be one or the other. There's all sorts of words Travis could have used to totally kick this thing into touch once and for all. 'I'm contracted' certainly wouldn't have been needed.

Did Mickey lie?

I thought he just said nothing but everyone knew.

In Toulouse I thanked him for his efforts and wished him well for his future career, I certainly never asked him where he would be playing and I would never have bothered to put it on here. Everyone knew due to his agent.

I seem to be particularly verbose this evening.

I'm disappointed in Mickey's season this year.

I do not fall into the camp that thought he was rubbish in 2012 for us and alright for a bit in 2013 (particularly after he signed for Hull), he was superb for most for the vast majority of his games. Best kick returns since Marvellous Makka and before him Zoopendous Zook.

I always thought zook fell into tackles

Actually it's on you tube, Travis's actual words were;

'Am I staying...........well I've still got a year left to run on my contract.....so I'll be staying for next year'.

Not read the whole thread, but if(!) Burns did go to Wigan would there be any chance of getting Powell to come the other way? Not seen much of him (or any rugby of late, really), but if he's behind Smith and Burns he's getting to the point in his career where he should want to be playing.
Is he even in good form at the minute?
Decent British halfs are a rarity - maybe he could do a Sneyd?
