I don't believe him in this regard and never say never.

Why!

Depends on who is available, they have some excellent fringe players. If he has a good relationship with Pearson he should keep some cash back until the middle 8's and if FC are out of the top 4 borrow Taylor, Watts, Big Frank, Ellis for 7 games !!!

Lunt is a good player,however, referring to his retention as a "massive coup" is more than a slight exaggeration.

Lunt is massively important to promotion hopes. I also hope Blair is being given a tempting offer as well. However, I won't believe anything including HDM comments, until they are officially announced.

Lunt is a massive coup if he stays, because he is a top 4 SL quality hooker who will stick around in the Championship.

Well I would agree with Frankie. Lunt is one of very few players who shows energy and desire and to lose him would have been a disaster.

Fair enough. I suppose it could be considered a coup given the position you find yourselves in. It's all relative.

Re: Players next year : Thu Oct 06, 2016 4:04 pm  

1 down (Lunt) - I reckon about 26 left to find.

On the other side - Gone/going (in my opinion)

Kelly
Campese
Sio
Tilse
Green

Fair play to Shaun Lunt. Big statement of intent from Rovers putting the money where their mouths are. Would have 100% got a super league gig so good on Lunt for sticking by the club.
