A fullback/wing swap would be great

mannering. vatuvei or Johnson would be acceptable

There's been a hitch apparently, not sure what it is though. Do we have space for anymore overseas?what's the quota?

We have quota space.

rumours that Ferres off to Wigan and we are getting another prop in return. Tautai.

needs sorting whichever way he goes!

at least anderson has had enough time to sort a plan out im sure, complicated issue

we are abit short in the backs

tautai is a decent enough prop if we get him

Leeds thrown back into the mix!

Signed for Leeds www.therhinos.co.uk/news/28177.php

Signed for Leeds www.therhinos.co.uk/news/28177.php

So who we going t sign now then

Undisclosed fee, as always. Will we see how we go for the time being? Certainly won't miss the 2015 Ferres as we didn't see a hell of a lot of him.

Would be nice to see us use the cap space but not the end of the world if a few of the youngsters step up this year.

Team spirit cannot be bought!

Glad the first part is sorted. I don't want us to panic buy, but we have little depth. We need another quality back row/back imo.

I knew he end up at Leeds for an 'undisclosed FREE' but it gets his probably 100-150k salary off your cap.
Lost a top player there though as we have with Carney.
All the best for the new season

dont understand how people can say he wont be missed ...

glad its been sorted now before the season starts and to actually get him off our cap space, dont expect to see the club use it anytime soon though as they never rush into things and will just see how the season pans out and if anyone comes available they like.

as for ferres he hasnt done anything for us since the 2013 season, last season was a total washout and the season before that i become frustrated with his performances, he has done well for england though.

what i do think we will miss is his on field presence , he is a go too man and also has that bit of mongrel in him, hope arent going to get bullied as a team again like we used too, could happen...we have brought in patrick softie again! rapira might help us out on this front.

Well he had to go - will make this year's games against the Rhinos even more intense.

Giants club have acted impeccably throughout this sorry tale and trust that they will make the right decisions with regard to any replacement at the right time.

Real shame this has happened after he performed so well for England following return from injury - was looking forward to seeing him play for the Giants injury free - now will be the pantomime villain and trust the Giants players use this as motivation to return to being the top Yorkshire club again.

All sorted now and trust the matter has had a team strengthening impact on the squad.

COYG!!!

When in anyone's right mind have you been the top club in yorkshire this century?

1962

8 trys 13 assists in 2014? not good enough for you ?

Top club in Yorkshire? I assume that you are jesting, Sir.

One League Leaders' Shield in decades is the sum total of the Giants' achievements trophy wise. Even then, the usual play off pressure meant that nothing else was attained. Until such time as you manage to win a trip to Old Trafford and win, it is better to be quiet methinks.

probably because we looked a better TEAM last year without him,
i'm disappointed to lose him especially to a rival, but, he seemingly broke any team spirit we had , therefore he had to go.

Wondered why Mr hetherington was quiet about "role models" on this one. It seems only if someone signs for a rival is morality in question......
Worst outcome for giants bar us giving him away IMO.
Hey-ho- nothing changes.

no and neither was his overall performances that season compared to 2013 when he made the dream team.

he will be referring to when we finished the top yorkshire team in the league table standings after the normal rounds, we finished above you in the league for a few years?
not reached the grand final but been in quite a few semi finals in playoff games aswell.
we had that run of wins against leeds too previously in the league comp.

The 8 years prior top 2009 which was the year Leeds equalled our 7 Championships. Or have you forgotten that 7 of Leeds League titles have come in the last 12 years?

The funny thing about the past is, it's the past. Everything from 1 second ago is the past, you can't just pick and choose which bits you want to count to suit your argument.

wow well dont know who your expecting to sign then. forwards arent nasty enough as it is without losing our best one and a few big names not fit at the start of the season ....
