Not you lot.

Uate to Huddersfield and Sandow to Toronto are the latest rumours, which might be causing Dave to worry. Tomkins is going to the Dragons, but that’s the only one I can recall worth mentioning.

A rumour going around that Widnes are about to appoint Craig Bellamy as their new coach with immediate effect and he's bringing over 6 Storm players.

Here’s one Frankie


Mason Caton-Brown has informally agreed to join Salford after the England match in Denver. Wakefield are happy to release him but with Tom Johnstone travelling to Denver with England they will only do so when he is back and providing they have no injuries in their three quarter line.

Mason Caton-Brown still lives in Salford and despite being offered a 3 year deal by Wakefield he is keen to play more often. He will probably play for Salford in the Middle 8s.

I don't class a player who can't in Wakefields side moving to Salford a big deal

The problem for rovers is peacock's stance on salaries. He seems to think you can operate a rigid wage structure like leeds but still attract quality players who could earn more elsewhere.

Leeds do seem to be able to hold on to there players when quite a few could have easily earned more in the NRL

Uate to Huddersfield.
Jason Clark to Warrington. They manage to stretch their cap long way...

Re: Chris Sandow : Tue Jun 05, 2018 11:08 pm  

The problem is that no one with any real options wants to live in east hull or play for a second rate club unless big money is thrown at them. Rovers no longer have big money to throw at anyone. The significant others of the "money men" have made sure of that. Your board is not going to drop 400k to keep your team mid table any longer. Go ahead, call me names but that's the facts, like them or not.
