Merrin is staying in Australia unfortunately.

Now my source is saying that Mamo isnt staying. Usually reliable.

I for one hope he moves on!

Not sure where he would play if he did, not first choice at FB, wing or centre, and you don't want a quota spot used just for cover. I feel with the right guidance he could be a great player, and it sure looked like it would be that way for a start. He's another confidence player who's up and down and probably not worth the risk, which is why the NRL gave up on him.

Rumours Warrington are after him to replace mitch brown, so he'd probably end up as a back up there too.

Any one heard of any more players joining?

yeh warrington maybe after mamo, on balance i was happy enough he was leaving anyway at the end of last season.

pre season is going to be interesting to see who they play at full back maybe mcintosh and centre maybe wardle ahead of turner and to see who kicks the goals and to see how the half backs work!! fear another slow start for the giants but will see

Party line? i've no more further interest in your club as i have for any, just putting what i was told, no win or loss to me personally or professionally.
For what it's worth i agree it seems there's been a mistake made somewhere.

Joe Wardle apparently not enjoying himself at Cas and is desperate to come back.

I would take Wardle back

I'd drive him back to you! Never known a player go off injured so often. We have an abundance of back rowers and I don't think he's that impressive at centre.

His brother looks a player though !

His brother's already turned Cas down once.

That sqaud aint looking like all that to me...

no thanks

Well you should know with all that time you spend in Davey's company, allegedly


Why don't you send me another PM when you get time.

What is this obsession wakey fans have with our board?
I get the feeling we offered Seb round to make room on the cap- now brough is off to stir the pot at wakey I’d imagine we will look to now keep Seb. Leeds fans seem to think mullaly and handley are coming the other way in a deal.
I’d take Wardle back. He enjoyed his time at hudds and He played his best rugby for us. It’s just whether we need another second row

mullally and wardle can both do one, didnt want to stay at the club in the first place, dont need players like that

Don’t be ridiculous. Mullaly fair enough. Wardle is a different thing altogether- he was given an amazing opportunity to play in the best comp I’m the world, and an opportunity for him and his family to spend time in the Southern Hemisphere. I don’t blame him one bit for taking that chance.

Mulally, no way, he's a luxury player who doesn't graft nearly enough to warrant a spot at prop. He only ever really tries near the line, never see him do the hard yards. Wardle just seemed to lose his way for me when he was switched from centre. At centre with us he knew his role, hit hard straight good lines on the edges, and he scored lots of tries that way. I can see why he was switched to 2nd row, because it's essentially the same job but one man further in, but he's not quite big enough and strong enough for that up against stronger defenders. He was always and should always have been a centre for me, that's where he got his accolades, there where he got noticed. As long as we played him at centre i would liek to have him back, doing what he did well and no tinkering.

I could imagine a Wardle / Wardle SR / C partnership working pretty well, if he came back at the right price I'd take him, experienced player and still young and might mean we keep Jake for longer

With Senior bros on the wings makes a good back line relatively speaking

Yeah the senior twins have 3/4 years soaking everything in from Jerry/Leroy/Uate before they retire. At which point they'll be early twentys and should be making the positions their own.

he started to sulk at the time he was at the giants, didnt help in the start of our downfall

ikahihifo staying then??

apparently we were after nathan ross too, another back..

Two Wardles as centres, two Seniors as wings.

Commentators nightmare!

Hes very good is Ross can play anywhere 1-5 and commited
