Re: Seven Betfred Super League clubs awarded Grade A status

Have I understood this correctly in that there is little point in London spending a load of cash on new players (who probably are not available anyway) so that they don't finish bottom next season? It seems that they could win the league and would still be relegated. Great incentive IMG.

Re: Regan grace

I hadn't realised that he'd not played all year because he's not recovered from the achilles injury. Not a good bet until he proves that he's made a full recovery. As a player who depends so much on his pace it would be a gamble to sign him at this stage. I'm not convinced he was better than Marshal...

Re: Eseh Jr

Looks very promising. Well done to the club for beating the opposition to this one. Weeks ago there was talk of him signing and then being loaned back to Wakefield so I don't know if that may still be the case.

Re: Owen Farrell

If we could get Radley I'm sure we'd be willing to 'encourage' somebody else to leave to make space. I can't imagine that we'd have put ourselves in this position if we had a realistic chance of signing him. Another good signing, whoever it is, would really make this a happy off-season though

Re: Regan grace

If he has turned us down I'm really pleased. We don't need him.

Re: Nsemba 4 Year Deal

Great news. He looks to have that bit extra that could make him an excellent player. He's still young but the squad for next season should allow us to feed him into the first team without having to overplay him. Congratulations to Junior, well done to the club.

Re: Owen Farrell

I think last night will have convinced him that he won't be in a position to win the next one. He'll be 36 and not the player he is today. The team needs a partial re-build and a change in tactics. They did well under the circumstances (complete mess left by Jones) to get to the semi and did nearly ...

Re: Grand final winner rings

It's an interesting one this. I'd assumed that it was only the 17 who played on the day got a ring but that would mean that a player could play a major role in the season e.g. Byrne and not get a ring. On the other hand you may get somebody who's drafted in at the last minute, as nearly happened wit...

Re: Number 13

Judging by Peet's comments today it doesn't look like we're in the market for anyone at the moment. Perhaps we're all getting excited for nothing. Wasn't there rumours about big news last Saturday? We can cover 13 if/when Smithies goes but, If he does go, I'd question how much better our squad will ...

Re: 2024

Cheers, Chariots, pleased to hear that Rock will be with us for another year. I'm sure he could still prove to be very useful to us.
