whats happening with jamie ellis?

on loan from the giants, not sure giants will be that keen to have him back.

Looks like he will be free to find another club. He played well when he had a settled partner but struggled when asked to be the lead HB. He will always get a warm welcome from me at CP as he was a major part of the team which got us promoted.

He played well for a lot of the season, but at times was a little inconsistant and on some other occasions did not seem motivated. This may not all be down to Ellis, as HBs rely on good players around them. That stated, he is not a player to steer the team around which should be a prerquisite for a number 7.

On that basis, I have doubts about him at SL level. I personally wouldn't give him a contract but Tim Sheens might see something he can work with.

I woukd like to see Abdul stay, he and Lunt controlled the game on Saturday. McGuire will be great next season but may only play half the games. Atkin will have his big SL chance as well. ZDC is a good utility player but not a HB, neither is Addy. Marsh is just plain rubbish. This friday will make or break his future at the club I reckon. On that basis, we need at least 1 other dedicated HB for 2018.

Ooooo you are a one

This is just my opinion and I doubt it will happen, I would get rid of

Horne
Cockayne ( I know he has already signed for York)
Quinlan
Jake Butler Fleming
Moran
Mitch Clark
Bobby Blair (providing we could find a far better oversees forward)

So that's 7 out for me, so if we could sign 5-6 better upgrades on the likes of Horne i think we could have a very strong Super League squad.

You reckon you could go back in for Sio, playing reserve grade

He only missed 3 games all season, through injury.

Being an utter raasclart and ultimate bumbaclaart that everyone from both sides of The Chocolate River's Tributary laughs and points at irrespective of which side they support but all of us being embarrassed to have to breath the same air as you...

Tick.

Oh right sorry was listening to someone last night and believed it

He played every game and in r17 he got injured against West's, missed the next 3 then returned for the last 4.

Mickey Paea's playing reserve grade, if he got mixed up?

Blair wont be going anywhere. I still think ZDC will be out, just can't see where we fit him into the starting 17 and for a quota player that is a must.

I agree... ZDC has been good, but he becomes a luxury as a back up hooker and if lunt and Lawler are fit he may find opportunities at a premium.

Saw him at a Wyong game a few weeks ago - cooking the barbeque for the club members.
He looks fit.
