Well the email that's come out recently says there's going to be a number of re-signings as well as new faces joining the club before the new season. Hopefully we get a decent enough team put together that we can look at pushing for the top end of the table again.

Another announcement tomorrow by sound of it.

Hope thats not true. Way way past his best. Injury prone, too old and too slow

Just had a look at his stats and they're pretty good this season. Obviously depends on how up for it he is but he's a seriously good player when used right.

Yeah, I agree with that.

If he comes to us it's obvious that he's "way past his best", otherwise he'd be looking at another deal in SL and not dropping down a level. The same applies to Danny Brough, I guess. Assuming they both want to be 'outstanding players' at their new level, and haven't just come to build up their pension, used carefully, they are (and would be) an asset in the championship, imo.

Sometimes stepping down a level is the logical career progression when you want to begin dabbling with coaching. I wouldn't be surprised if Brough uses it as that, and Cuthbertson clearly has the appetite for the same as he coaches the Rhino's women's team.
