Officially signed for the Rooster. Good look to the lad.

Good luck to the lad certainly an improvement

Think there gonna be a fair few following him out of the club from all age groups

2 year deal.

Huge challenge for him but even if he doesn’t make the grade he walks back into a SL contract after a great life experience.

Can’t fault him.

Hope he smashes it.

Great news for him to be working with the best

Great news for Lewis. Hope he's a success

Good luck to him
Unlikely to come back and haunt us unless ….. forget it! Just don’t bother going there.

Great move for him, hope he kills it out there. And if not he’ll have his pick of clubs on his return.

Can’t blame him can you.
Although he could have been playing the Bulldogs if he’d stayed with us - Batley Bulldogs that is!

Really cant blame the lad hope he becomes best winger in nrl,

But why is he out of contract when less a players aint, we has a club spent how much developing this lad and hes gone for free.no blame on lewis though.

We've seen some real talent leave the club this last year ,its heartbreaking to see other clubs benefiting from all our hard work it doesn't bode well for the future of WT It's a really depressing time .

Going to lose more too and not all want to leave

Thought Murphy was on his way to HKR in a swap for the announcer and half time presenter

Good luck to the lad, great young prospect. I really wish him well.

He is a great example of the Messiahs rolling door at Wakey. Class talent goes out and overpaid garbage comes in

A tad OTT on this occasion seeing as Lewis is OOC at the end of the season.....

Spill the beans then Luppylad.

No not really. Players at all clubs sometimes leave and do not renew their contracts, it happens. The difference is with us we do not replace like for like.
TJ and Lweis out... Lineham and Tafua in... then add Fifita, Tini, Batch, Miller ... look at who comes in. Can you see a pattern developing.

Surely we should have been looking to tie the lad down long term before it came to this?
Of course, nobody can begrudge him or anyone else leaving if the are offered a contract down under but, after already having Johnstone leave, we really ougt to have had our better players, especially the youngsters, tied up for as long as possible.

It doesn't feel quite as bad just yet but, with all of the plyers that have been allowed to leave, it feels like the Kath Hetherington era, with everyone for sale.
Ok, we scraped through that and eventually started to build again but, the stakes are getting a little higher and if we have any aspirations about being one of the lucky 12 clubs, we must stay in SL.

Its OK saying we should keep them, but its not just the clubs decision - it's a two-way decision.
If I remember correctly, Lewis said that he was leaving and I don't think there was anything we could do to keep him here tbh.

Nothing to spill, players will leave cine end of season though

I liked Murphy and wish him well but he obviously sees his future away from us so I’ll forget him and hope we find another for some other club to benefit from.

A Championship club without money will always be a selling club because that becomes their business model. They find young talent develop them and sell them on it as always been the way unless on the rare occasion someone with money steps in.

I pay into 1873 to produce youngsters for WAKEFIELD TRINITY, the fact we can not afford to keep any of them just says to me, is it all worth it ?

He's signed for an NRL club, not HKR.

Get a grip.

Would you stay at Rhinos or Wire et al if the NRL came calling?
