Not sure about the WCC, Amos and 'Billy the Kid' but i'm pretty certain that Saints were trying to line up a few friendlies before they close the gates once and for all - a close friend whose company do work for them said they had the safety certificate to stage a few more matches before the big send off and they desperately wanted one last chance to win the last derby at KR before it's turned into a housing estate! Suppose the only thing we'd need to see is whether that fit in with Mags and IL's plans for preseason.

That nails it in a nutshell for me, really sorry to see him go and can only wish him the very best. Makes me recall the days when we used to ship players out just before they went over their peak - it took me ages to get over us releasing Frano Botica for one and it isn't something we have done in a long time. Just can't understand why their is no news on KP, the coaching staff obviously see something in him that I can't

The difference for me is that Pryce is non quota, and i'd guess that he's on less money than Phelps. I'm not Pryce's biggest fan, but he did nothing wrong last season for me, he finished his tries pretty well. If he's happy to continue providing back up for the wing spot then I don't see a problem, the only issue arises if he is sat behind Charnley and Marsh and doesn't look like getting anywhere near the 17.

I'm sure he's a wiganer and was my age at school. Was his nickname 'Brains'?

I'm disappointed that we aren't keeping him, he's proved to be a useful player in his time here, and I was a bit gutted that he didn't play more last season after his great start.

Wont be missed, very average defensively.
