Outs for 2013:

Confirmed:

[url=http://www.therhinos.co.uk/news/16907.phpKylie Leulaui (Retirement)[/url

TBC: Reigning Super League Champions

Isn't Moore a 3 year deal?

Yeah, starting 2012.

So ends 2014 then. All players contracts start and end 1st December (might be November), unless signed mid year which are then x and half years contract.

Gotcha is right, the three seasons are 2012, 2013 and 2014, unless Manly come in with a massive bid for Moore as he releases his huge potential....

Edited with Official links for Confirmed ins, and outs.

I have written this blog, and over the next year or so i will be writing reviews of games. I'm hoping to be a sport journalist, so this is helping to develop my writing skills, so if anyone is interested here it is: benduke17.blogspot.com/

Aston Wilson released apparently because of his attitude dont know if this has been said on another thread but I was told couple of days ago

could somebody please check on nantwhich if he has been released

He'll end up at Hunslet then.

I am sure that there is someone in the under 9's to be championed as the SO for next year.

www.yorkcityknights.co.uk/18219- ... ar-elliott George Elliott joins York.

Also, Keith Senior rumoured to French RU.

Apparently, A number of SL clubs in the race to try and sign Manu Tuilagi from RU after the RFU losing patience with the player, including Leeds.

A good move for Elliott and York imo he should be able to handle the step up at that level and may do a "Peter Fox" and get into SL in a couple of years just not ready yet and too good for u20's RL.

Would make a lot of sense - it was said that he wanted to go to Crusaders for the counrty lifestyle, well there's plenty of space in France. Also he played mainly Union as a junior didn't he?



He'd make a cracking League player (his big brother Freddy was pretty good) - can't see how any League club could match what he could earn at Leicester though - their cap is £4m. Admittedly Union sides need bigger squads but that's still a damn sight more than £1.7m

edited.

No chance. Ferry-jumpuing aside, England's only bright spot from the RU World Cup. No way League is going to have the financial clout to tempt him.

So who are we expecting to get the number 9 shirt?

McShane? New Signing? Possibly even Burrow?

General squad number speculation a-plenty this time!! Certainly in the first 17!

Who'll get the number 4?
Will Smith retain number 2?
Will Delaney get a different number as a pack player? If so, who'll be 3?
Will anyone break the dreaded curse of the 15 shirt?
Will McShane be handed number 9 despite hardly playing this year?

Find out soon, on another exciting episode of...... "Rhinos in Decline".

So far I wouldnt put it passed going:

6. Sinfield
7. McGuire
9. Burrow
13. Clarkson.

But I think it will be:

6. McGuire
7. Burrow
9. McShane
13. Sinfield

New signing, or Hardaker



Nope, Ben Jones-Bishop



Delaney to 14, Watkins to 3



Richard Moore



Its either his, or Burrow's IMO.

I'd go...

1. BJB
2. Hardaker
3. Watkins
4. New Signing
5. Hall

6. McGuire
7. Burrow

8. Leuluai
9. McShane
10. Peacock
11. JJB
12. Ablett
13. Sinfield

14. Delaney
15. Moore
16. Bailey
17. Clarkson

18. Kirke
19. Hauraki
20. Pitts
21. Ambler
22. Briscoe

32. Webb
42. Smith

Looking at that, it still looks a strong squad, considering we'd be 3 players-ish down on last year, should still have plenty cap space available even with a squad like that.

More than likely to be : (with no new signings)

1. Webb
2. BJB
3. Watkins
4. Hardaker
5. Hall
6. McGuire
7. Burrow
8. Leuluai
9. McShane
10. Peacock
11. JJB
12. Ablett
13. Sinfield
14. Delaney
15. Moore
16. Bailey
17. Clarkson
18. Kirke
19. Hauraki
20. Pitts
21. Ambler
22. Briscoe
23. Hood
24. Smith
25. Ward
