No, what you stated was:
"Chris Hicks has signed for Rugby Union, there's some inside knowledge for ya."

And even when I questioned why was Hicks telling the media he might stay at Warrington you came back with the smart alec response that you don't know what goes on in his head, when you could have said then that you weren't certain, but didn't.

Couple of points:

1) surely every bit of "insider" info you post on here relates to something you have been "told". The only other information is something that you make-up (actually I'm now realising that all your other rubbish is stuff you haven't been "told"icon_wink.gif

2) In future when you make such statements of fact as:



can you clarify whether it is a "fact" or just something you've been "told".
For example is Kevin Sinfield to Warrington now just something you was "told"?

Sorry about the confusion then, allow me to clear up a few things.

Sinfield - Warrington = Fact.
Briers - Hull KR = Told.
Hicks - Union = Told.
Louis Anderson - Anywere but Depends on what his brother does = Fact.
Lockyer - Warrington = Rumour is'nt true, Fact.
Smith - Warrington = Rumour is'nt true, Fact.
SBW - Warrington = Rumour is'nt true, Fact.

Feel free to move this to the rumour thread.

Awesome.

So you guarantee that Kevin Sinfield will be a Warrington player - is that this year or next mate?

LMFAO

Pretty sure it's next year, not heard anything about him joining this year.

Nice one. I'll tell you one thing mate - at least you have the guts to put your neck on the line. Much better than all this 'I know something but can't tell you' crap.

Hey im loving you che tony picture

Until it proves to be untrue, then there will be some excuse as to why he wasn't wrong, we just misinterpreted him.

Well, to be fair, he has clarified what is a 'fact'. There is absolutely no way he can sensibly argue his way out of the Sinfield one. If Sinfield signs for Warrington, we'll have to applaud his contacts. If he doesn't, I suppose we are all justified in laughing and pointing.

tbh i sincerely hope it isn't true.

Sinfield is close to being a has been.

Warrington need to start finding the will be's, if you know what i mean.

I do know what you mean. I do happen to like Sinfield, but usually champion teams aren't filled with players who've "been there done that".

How can anyone NOT want to keep Hicks?

Deary me today. This forum HAS gone to the dogs. And by that I don't mean Belle Vue.

Sinfield to us is a rumour made up by someone in his/her bedroom based on the fact he used to play for Tony Smith at Leeds. Same goes for Lee Smith.

Hicks to Yawnion has no basis on reality, as was proven by his comments

Briers to Hull KR comes on the back of Briers' t'other half being from Hull and nothing else and has in fact been doing the rounds since his t'other half came on the scene

In fact, the vast majority of rumours we here go along similar lines to this. People hope that one day they'll get one right.

The person who suggested Matt Orford all those years ago will need a fair few tissues shortly...

Everything posted on here is a rumour or speculation until a club confirms it. Just because you choose to not believe it should not prohibit others from doing so. A few people on here will have good contacts, maybe even socialise with players and coaches and others involved in the clubs.
For what I believe some of these so called rumours will have substance and no doubt negotiations have gone on with players and clubs up and down the league and sometimes these do not come off and never make the press or see the light of day. However some of them will.Just because a few may not believe it should not put off people from posting what they have heard. I am sure most people like to hear what is possibly going on before an official announcement.

hmm I'm all for keeping Hicks ONE more year. He's lost a lot of pace from those Manly days but is still a model pro and i'd imagine he isnt on THAT much for an overseas player. Depending on how we go for a couple of months i'd wack him another year down.

1 more year...

Get rid.

Any reason?

I don't think he offers enough. The only player he has beat in about his last twenty games is Michael Platt. Also I would be suprised if he went to rugby union as whenever I watch it the ref is always shouting at ebvery tackle "stay on your feet"; so that would be Hicks knackered, goes down far too easily.

I'm sure we could bring better in or would receive better value from playing home grown players such as Riley, Penny, Williams and Evans.

Having said that he's been a decent signing and will do a decent job no doubt for the remainder of this season but at his age next year wingers tend to struggle to continmue to make an impact.

Put it this way, even at Hicks' age I'd rather have him ahead of Micheal Monaghan and Matt King for next year.

Is Hicks any better than Riley?
