5 loan players : Wed Sep 30, 2009 7:47 pm  

I think we may see a few of the following at the Stobarts next year on dual contracts all being well.

Kevin Penny - Warrington Wolves
Ben Davis - Wigan Warriors
Chris Tuson - Wigan Warriors
Gary Wheeler - St Helens
Tom Armstrong - St Helens

Official Signings

Paul Johnson - Warrington Wolves - Rumour
Thomas Coyle - Oldham

Don't know much about Tuson and Armstrong but I'd be well pleased if they all come off.

Wheeler is top quality and would be fantastic at this level

You cant have Dual Contracts from more than one club. The SL club has to designate the Champ club as a partner and then they can use dual contracts.

Didnt know that, what happens if you just want to loan someone? does everyone have to agree to the dual contracts?

It'll have to be spelled out in the Operational Rules soon I suppose but the RFL are probably still working on the fine print aka making it up as they go along.

SL clubs can only have 1 lower league club for dual contracts and a max of 5 players who have to be registered,
They can also play for both clubs (i.e. if not picked to play in the SL clubs 1st team at the weekend they can play for the other club that week)

Think we will be partnering the crust munchers TBH...... their chairman has publicly stated that they will be loaning us players next season.

Probably be Saints and Widnes with the merseyside link.

I think Armstrong, Wheeler, Frodsham, Emmitt and Lomax could be some of the players that would gain some experiance from it.
