I love to sign Mcgillvary, but would cost about 100k, no way will Pearson pay a transfer, particularly with the cap increase next year which will cost him.

How is our average crowd looking and comparing to last season, must be doing ok from away ticket sales as well?


Average game on game we are 1,429 up on last season (regular season fixtures). Leeds was almost 5,000 up, Cas and Catalans over 2,000 up. Only Salford was down (1,249) although last season's fixture was the opening game with a 'friend for a fiver' deal.

Looks like Fonua is nailed on leaving. Shame but not totally surprising.
Can see Michaels ending up at somewhere like Widnes.
The interesting one for me is if we offer Thompson a new deal.

I suppose game for game, it will go down a bit when you compare the Leigh and Rovers home games.

The away ticket money should make up for that loss though.

It may depend on what happens with Hadley, but if he comes back then I think Thompson will leave, I think it's the right decision when you look at the recent performances of Fash, Turgut and Thompson.

Not only are the youngsters outperforming him they offer much more value for money, is doubt Thompson will be on peanuts as he was a highly rated youngster when he signed.

As said I'd put Griffin on the wing if Fonua does leave. Don't see the point in signing BJB even if both Fonua and Michaels leave.

Thompsons definitely going. Will be an interesting off season with ins and outs. Westerman has offered to pay the extra £40k that Hull and Warrington can't agree on.

Griffin is a Radford type winger, so could easily see him playing there.
Could BJB also play centre to offer cover, or would we see him primarily as a winger?
I can also see Thompson leaving. Turgut will be a star, you can just see it.
Very interesting about Westerman though!

Have we also offered £40K to Wire to keep Lineham?

Re: Recruitment and retention : Tue May 09, 2017 8:14 am  
BJB was a fullback as a bain wasn't he? For the right price he'd be a good addition and probably see us as a chance to win things (no disrespect to Wakey). We won't ever replace Fonua directly but there are other strong wingers out there who can put in the hard yards up the middle, maybe we could bring Tom Briscoe home :D.

I can see Thommo ending up at Wire or Widnes. He has flashes of brilliance but not consistent enough. Wire were after him last year weren't they?

What does the Westerman £40k thing mean ? Are Wire after Thomson ? Or does Joe want to come back here ??

Is Hodgson the new Griffin, or is it all about pace?
