All the best to him. Put in some big efforts for us and generally solid. Good adventure for him and his family over their Toulouse will I doubt be challenging again to get to the middle 8's next year and I am certain he will make a big impact for them.

Frees up some cap, he came over as a big signing with Hinchcliffe so imagine it would be a fair wedge

Good luck to him. Always liked Rapira, felt he was our best prop last season. Surprised he has gone to Toulouse but like has been said a good adventure for him and his family at the back end of his career

we all knew he was ooc and leaving, good move for him , nice part of the world and should be in the middle 8's next season Toulouse

was the cornerstone of our pack last season, had to do it all himself, wore him down abit in the end but this season he is back to his best and producing strong drives, overall been a good player for us...only 30 still so he will be ripping it up in the championship !

My wife and I spent a couple of hours in the company of Sam and his wife and girls yesterday A really nice genuine guy and a lovely family Sam said he would have liked to stay in Huddersfield but thats the way things go in sport I suppose.Always gave his best for our team and a top bloke as well we hope everything works out well for him and his family in the future.

The kind of player that's overlooked by many of the Giants supporters as he's not "flashy". The kind of player that does a lot of the grunt work to wear the opposition down, and make space for others. Strong carries- rarely made an error and generally difficult to tackle- more often than not won the collision to get a quick ptb. Subtle stuff - but so, so important.

Good luck Sam, and thank you.

Shame we couldn't have kept him for another year, good, solid prop and a smashing bloke to boot.
I thank him for the effort he put in and wish him and his family well in their new adventure!

Decent player but is on a fair whack by all accounts and depennds if we use the money wisely.

Does this mean we now have a quota spot spare for next season? What position would you like to see us use the quota spot to strengthen?

Even with the apparent signings of Adam Walne and Colton Roche I think we still need another prop. Roche is a 2nd row/prop.

We could potentially lose Ukuma Taai too.

I expect us to lose Gene Ormsby and wouldn't be surprised to see us lose Ferguson or Clough

Like has already been said knew he was going as ooc so not surprised. Real pro that has never let us down and will be missed. Toulouse are getting a good un and I really hope Sam and his family enjoy their new adventure. Thanks for all your efforts Sam and very best wishes to you and your family.

rapiras quota spot is taken up by rankin for next season, no spots available according to rick stone.

walne and roche maybe incoming along with dickinson making a step up too for 2018.. mason has gone backwards.

The only way that would work re the quota is Symonds must have been unregistered this year and therefore it suggests he will return to the rota next year which would be good news if he is finally over his injuries.

fingers crossed for symonds in 2018... classy player who can link up with cudjoe and mcgillvary on that right hand side, one of the best in sl
