I have a feeling this is something that's happened while they were out there.

Isa posted a picture of him and Frank before the hull match in training saying "prep done" the day before the match, Since then the silence on Franks absence has been deafening. Wane made a big deal at the start of the season about how this trip was a "prize" available for the better players as he wouldn't take everyone. So to take a player and not play him at all even in the friendly game makes me feel there has been a fallout while they are there otherwise why bother taking him at all. Negotiations for NRL clubs don't need you to be there in person it seems we've paid for his holiday.

” He said the defeat did not take the shine off their trip to New South Wales and is keen to repeat the venture down the line. “I’d rather come for longer!” he added.

I'll just bet he's keen to get there and as long as I keep plonking my eighteen quid down and the majority fork out twenty-five or six, he'll get the trips in. In my eyes, that money is to provide players with the salary they deserve and the fans with a team we're proud to support. Patience and time are what's needed, my patience is getting exhausted and time, I fear, is running out while he arranges jollies for the boys.
I think a defeat on Good Friday may be a turning point for Shaun Wane.

I think we may have played a blinder here...
It looks like FPN and family have not settled. But he is still under contract so was reluctant to go home and jeopardise that cash. So we got the story about his signing for wests’ feeder club and the subsequent denial. We just sat tight and called his bluff. Looks like we are ill get him off our books without having to continue to pay his wages etc...
which frees up yet more salary cap space just in time to get a signing or 2 in before the first home game.

If they had got rid of DS at the same time they would not be bringing excessive baggage back from Ozz

Understand from a team members relative that he is as they said in the Dam Busters film - G goner and someone has been quite clever about it

I have also heard that and that he didn’t return with the rest of the squad.
