He's a cracking player and it's nice to see him commited to the cause. Silence is deafening in situations like this so I'm glad he's spoke out again.

At the forum IL said Tommy has re-signed for the option year of his current deal. Can't remember the exact words but I'm pretty sure it was then hinted that a new deal was being suggested beyond his current contract.

In a similar situation in business, as soon as you declare you are moving to a competitor, you are given gardening leave or allowed to leave immediately.

This is simply not true. Plenty of people, including top CEO's state their intention to move on, and they see out their notice period.

Where an individual is going to a competitor and has access to sensitive information it is common to ask them to leave immediately.

Given the club through TL have now denied the media report, I do not see the point of discussing it.

Heard big rumours that Griffin is days away from signing. And that King is not too far away.

Hope so on both.

Good quality options to replace Gleeson and Coley who I'd hope would be who were looking at replacing. I'd expect Hock to take Hoffmans place and then we just need to see what Carmont and Deacon decide to do.

Initially i was rather nonplussed about the King rumors, but lately the thought of Pat, King and Hock rampaging down our left has me intrigued.

Griffin will do a job and tbh thats all we really need from him. He has been in very good form recently and is a bit of a poop house to boot.

Decent signings that could prove to be good business.

Re: Rumours and signings v6 (inc Maguire Rumours) : Mon Jun 06, 2011 9:20 pm  

I genuinely don't see the need for Griffin. Decent player and all, but we've got 4 perfectly good props in the team at the minute. Swap in Coley for Fielden next year, arguably stronger. Behind them you've then got O'Carroll (who's back in training I think) and Dom Crosby not far behind with a couple of the 2nd rowers having the ability to step up.

Matt King, yes. I'd be very happy with signing him, however I can't see it happening.

Griffin doesnt excite me..King would be a great signing
