I don’t agree with this. Maybe just maybe falling gated and a lack of star quality that has affected the entertainment, affected gates and led to a general malaise has forced there hand.
Having said that this is absolutely not a thread for negativity.
Congratulations and thanks indeed are owed to IL and KR for getting this one over the line and the standard to recruitment for next year.
Massive signing for the club, and Super League.
One other real benefit of this is that I think it will put us firm favourites for if/when his brothers are looking for a couple of years back in SL, although I don’t expect we could fit all 3 under a salary cap.
That’s a secondary thought though at the moment the thought of having a real world class Prop still in his prime is a fantastic result for the club.
General malaise whilst still being the joint most successful club over the last ten years. I’d hate to see the malaise if we’d had the same last ten years as Saints or Wire, who have made big name signings.
My point was that when we had a poor start to the season the pitchforks were out and everybody had an opinion. Usually when the club does something good, most of those go quiet.
