heard the same, we were however interested before he renewed at Warrington

This is the problem with these little non committal comments ie not naming Wardle but just hanging pure speculation out there.

Other deals are going on in the background like the King deal for example.

Rumours sweep through the town and rugby league community very quickly by just throwing out leading statements it can affect other players and the clubs ability to negotiate with players who are on their radar particularly if they are on contract.

It may seem inconsequential but like Chinese whispers these “in the know” comments without actually naming people involved but that are taken as gospel by others and quickly become fact can cause real issues.

Ill just not post in future if I cant name the player then, just thought letting fans know we were active and had signed a player, then hinting very clearly to who the player is would get a bit of excitement going and to let fans know the club were active recruitment wise.

Then he fell off a cliff after getting paid whether that was coincidental or complacency. Still only 26 but a loan is weird.

Couple weeks ago I was told they knew where he would be playing but I wasn't told where that would be. Today, they’ve said it will be Wigan.

I believe the source 100% as always, but it all comes down to what he has being told and if that is correct. I assume it is I have no reason to doubt it, apart from the fact this has all dragged on and can change in an instant as the NRL offer proved. I am lead to believe the conditions to be sorted out are around some of Bevans family members who may be moving to the UK

Any chance it could be announced before tomorrow's game? Imagine how revved up that would get the atmosphere

I do wonder if "something" will be announced tomorrow as King was announced early in the week, I'd expect that to have been done on a game day?
