Feel free to correct me, I might have missed one or two announcements, but I believe the following are out of contract at the end of the season:

Paul Wellens
Ade Gardner
Anthony Laffranchi
Mark Flannagan
=#FF0000Lee Gaskell------> Bradford
Carl Forster
Nathan Ashe

If I've not missed the announcements, why has the club not announced those new deals? The top two would warrant a bit of a fanfare for their last home league game, particularly as we could still end up 7th and potentially having no home play off games? So they've clearly signed deals, so where are the announcements?

Are the top three just being delayed till after the renewal deadline in the hope they don't negatively affect morale? Where is Flanagan's announcement? I remember him telling people on Twitter he'd be here for another season.

I guess the bottom two are as good as gone as they've not featured much this season?

Paul Wellens - Still in negotiations for 1 year deal
Ade Gardner - Signed 1 year
Anthony Laffranchi - Signed 1 year
Mark Flannagan - Signed 2 years
=#FF0000Lee Gaskell------> Bradford
Carl Forster - Still got another year I think
Nathan Ashe - London

So have the Gardner, Laffranchi and Flanagan deals been announced anywhere? If not, why not?

Wello agreed his deal months ago

that sums what is so wrong with the club at the moment. Why don't we go all the way and sign Howarth on permanently.

Pretty sure he hasn't actually signed it though?

Not sure he's actually put pen to paper tho but he certainly agreed terms.

We should 100% let howarth go back to Salford. He's not good enough.

I wouldn't keep the other out of contract players either with the exception of Flanagan who is IMO a squad player that can cover sia and Manu if need be.

Swap them all for a six. Should not be needed. But all for one six and we are better off.

We also need a prop, centre as well as a stand off. If make prop our priority as we will have the most unfit props in super league next year and need one quality prop to play long mins.

Ade Gardner... Paul Wellens... If you love them let them go.

They are probably saving the good news of wellens and ade signing new deals for when saints get knocked out of the playoffs. It will be just the pick me up the saints fans need.

But where would they go?

If you let them go you're casting them down with the sodomites. Only cas, wakefield london and the like will want them.

How can you be so cruel hearted?
