Disagree. She'd be great at motivating a team to get stuck in before they left the dressing room, and who would want to face her back in the sheds after a defeat. |

Having a go? nope far from it, just fishing for information if you knew a rough time the club might announce what you have mentioned. Qutie rate Nicholson highly and the thought of him on an improved deal is great news for both club and player. I shall keep my questions to myself in the future, Ciao  |

The shoot emoji was me being jovial and to represent my indirect question (more of a statement rather as you pointed out not a question) on hunting for some more information from someone who is evidently, as you would say 'in the know' regards the clubs goings on. Again as said above there was absolutely notting init... |

The enigma…
Bullock!
What is happening with him?
Daryl Powell, Chambers and Big Sam, all seem to have/had some issue.
It’s getting silly now this shroud of mystery.

Think he just isn’t considered a first 17 player. He’s just been given a new deal so it can’t be an attitude thing or he’d be out I think. He just isn’t as good as Vaughan, Harrison, Philbin, Musgrove, Crowther and even Wood. |

Luke Yates
Guardian reporting talks at advanced stage and looks to be our ONLY 2025 signing.
Do we need more bodies in 2025? I’m happy with the squad to be honest.

Yates is an excellent player, as others have said I'm not sure who he replaces though. But it does give more competition for places. If Drinkwater gets another year I'm not sure where it leaves us on the quota. I'm assuming Tai will go back to the NRL so we should have at least one spot available I think.

That`s exactly my stance on Yates..
Yes, he is a great defender, and in the modern game he gets in a team as a 13.
With Currie`s move to loose forward, I can`t see Yates displacing him there.
That leaves Yates playing at prop, , which I think he is too small for and no better than the props we currently have.
Lastly, Yates is a Quota Player, and it is a waste of a Quota Spot for him playing prop. |

Looking at the numbers does the tackle count include being 2nd and 3 rd man in.

As it stands now and I’m only basing this on the 1 game I have particularly watched him so can be considered unfair he does not get in our current 17. |

As far as I know, all tacklers including 2nd & 3rd players in the tackle are included in all tackle stats. |

Stats-wise he compares very favourably to Currie and Crowther.

We will have a chance for a close up on Sunday hopefully he'll be doing plenty of tacking rather than busting.
My inclination is to agree with FMC re him and Philbin. I see him as an upgrade despite an improvement in Philbin's form, but I'd temper that with a comparison of their terms and the use of a quota spot.
