Yep he is. Just got Widnes and Cats to do now and I've started one for the NRL.

According to Ian Lenagan, after the Wakefield game, Brett Finch is to start contract renewal talks this week.

with lulu going, wigan will be desperate to keep him

Finch has said he wants to stay for few years yet and loving it at Wigan.

like all players say come contract time, to put the emphasis on the club to offer them a good deal. He'll stay if he can't get a good deal in Oz, simples

Well i dont want the Widnes players out of contract as they are all e.

I'd definitely want Jordan Turner. Size, pace to burn and in great form at the moment!

Completed to the best of my knowledge.

Ah turd, forgot the quota conditions on some clubs.

Players I'd consider would be Turner, Elima, Josh Griffin, Cooper, Willie Manu, Paul Johnson, Ferriol and Burgess. And if by some way we free a quota spot up (and keep Sia), Millard, Dureau and Manuokafoa.

I don't think willie Manu is quota either as I think he signed pre 2008

Yeah, he's exempt. Could be the impact forward we need.

I really rate Manu, he's a tackle breaker and has good hands.

Is there a chance that we could lose both TP and Sia? TP is at that age where a serious injury, like the one he's just received could be the tipping point and persuade him to retire. Sia hasn't signed yet and surely the club are working overtime on resigning him, which worries me greatly.

My understanding was that the exemption is only with his current club, similar to us having exemptions for Meli and Lego Head. Their exemption could not be transferred to a new club?

Nope.

Is it certain that Sia is up for renewal this season? I thought he had signed until the end of next season.

Yes, he's in contract talks with a view to extending it at the minute but of course has other offers to consider.

With nobody really sticking out from the out of contract list it just shows we missed out big time with ratchford and Chris hill.

Warrington secured to very good young British players while we was saying the is no props, centres or halfbacks available.

Jake Emmitt signs new 2 year deal with Cas.

Sia is thinking over the clubs first offer but I was told something today which don't add up.

3+7 = 11?

We have signed sia AND Lyon?????

A player who I would like for us to look at is Scott Taylor from Hull KR....not OOC though
