| I think given his status with regards to imports I think Korkidas has shown that he is worth a permanent 1 – 2 years deal (Personally I would prefer 1 as playing for a contract seems to get the best out of Korkidas, but no doubt that would be unfavourable to the player).
Not heard anything with regards to him moving to here or Salford, but the Giants have him for another 2 years so a player swap or a transfer fee would be involved.

| I'd keep him if we could. He's proved he's worth keeping as far as I am concerned.
If Salford got him they'd have a good signing

| They've already got Sculthorpe.....how could they want more?
I'm not sure it would be a player exchange thing with them. They have a pretty good squad already. Unless we were giving up Brough or you were giving up Myler, I don't think they'd be sweating too much.
He is surplus to requirements there so I reckon they woul just do a deal to cut his contract early.
Only my own conjecture though. No facts

Think they would be happy to let him go to be fair!!!! They dont need him, he has not played well for them, and as it stands they are 'stuck' him him for another 2 years!

Hard to say as Trinity have a lot of OOC players this time round so the players that would be the most likely to feature in any sort of swap deal more then likely will not be here anyway, if Trinity had Sculthorpe for another year then perhaps he could’ve been used in swap deal.

| I think we need to try all we can to keep Korki, he rarely misses games through injury and would help us put together a massive pack for next season if we sign Tronc too.

| I've said this before about Korki he should use his brain and stay where he is happy and not exactly where the most money is! He has played better for us than any of Cas, Hudds or Salford but then of course he isnt our player!

| I think Korkidas at home at Wakefield Trinity and definitely regrets ever leaving.
No doubt he had a very good season whilst with Salford and I'm sure he doesn't regret the time he spent there. Moving to Castleford and then to Huddersfield Giants has been a personal nightmare for him and returning to Wakefield has rejuvenated his career.
If we don't sign him I'm sure he would be happy to return to Salford but I get the feeling that he would move heaven and earth to stay with Trinity.
As for our front row next year I can see Korkidas being part of a very effective pack.
With the rumoured additions of Shane Tronc, Terry Newton to go alongside James Stosic, Richard Moore, Oliver Wilkes and probably Korkidas. Wakefield Trinity will have a very difficult pack to contain and hopefully with the addition of a new stand off to go alongside Danny Brough we will have a half backs to steer them around the field.

To be fair i dont think he had a nightmare with us its more a case of he was basically brought in to cover for our main props and we have been quite fortunate with them this year and there hasn't been many chances for Korki this year. We let him come to your lot because he would be guaranteed 1st team rugby with you whereas with us it might have been once every 6 games or something.
Anyway we'll probably have him back next year - our reserves are a bit light in the prop department

| Korki is a wildcat through and through we are the only club who he will ever perform for. It will be a utter shame if we don't sign him hes a fan favourite and he loves putting the red , white and blue on. Hes been outstanding for us since he returned.

| Lets not get too carried away with Korki just yet. Yes he has played well since his return nothing spectacular but getting through his fair share of work and not too many penalties. That said any deal would have to be right for the club and if he's looking for good money then I hope he doesn't get it from us. Though i'm sure if he doesn't end up signing it will all be the clubs fault...

I think you're right about that, he probably is Wakey through and through, but you'll find players in most teams that are like that. We had Paul Reilly who would run through brick walls for the Giants but never been the same elsewhere. Then we have Drewy, I know he's playing ok at the moment but I don't honestly think, from what I've seen of him, that he has played to the standard he played at with us.
I think for Korki's sake and his career he would be better off staying at Wakey where he belongs, but is it down to money like it was with Drewy?

| I just feel he has some unfinished business at salford he carried our pack that year single handed. With the team we have now its better balanced and i feel it would allow him to produce his best form week in week out. and weather he stays at Wakefield or goes he sounds like he'll be remember fondly i dont know if you would put him in the moden day "legend" category because the word is banded around too much imo but thats up to you guys i surpose to decide umongst yourselfs.
With Stapo and Big Phil moving on from us we'd be looking for a prop forward to give us that drive and korki fits the bill. but depends on the money situation on what he wants/what we can offer and if Huddesfield want to play ball.

| Has been very good the last 2 matches ... I think he has played his best rugby at Wakefield and if he wants to get back to his best again should stay with Wakefield...

He has been spot on in every game since he joined us - a far superior player IMHO to the one who left us. Whether that is down to him maturing or some good coaching I don't know. What I do know is all the faults in his game that made me cringe when Wakey fans touted him as a legend have gone. I still don't think he is legend material but he is doing a great job and I hope we sign him and he then kicks on from there.
It just goes to show that props get better as they get older.
