Wouldn't contracts be nullified if a team was relegated? I thought they were classed as SL contracts?

Can we keep Cowling to the end of the season , Kay also.

Dons fan.

Was Frankie been offered a deal by us for next year? It seems it was more of a case of having no choice but to move.

Yes he was offered a deal by us but it seems he chose Castleford over us.
He would have had to consider, game time and money from each of us as he wasn't really getting as much as he wanted at this club.
All the best to him just hope he plays rubbish when he plays us.

Sorry if this has been mentioned already, but has Ali said he's retiring at the end of the season? I would hope we could get another season out of him

Ali has another year option on his contract I believe. I remember reading an interview earlier in the season that he said something along the lines of
''If I can stay injury free, play consistently and enjoy my rugby I'll think about doing the year on my contract but we'll have to wait and see how this season goes first and that's all Im concentrating on.''

Great stuff, going by this season i'd say he still has a lot to offer us if he decides to do another year

Ali is worth another year just to be there and about to bring on the young ones

Depends what wage and how often he would be playing. Would imagine he is one of our top earners and as a club who have limited finances, we may not be able to justify another year

I believe it's his choice to take up the extra year as the club had offered it before.

Just heard a tiny murmur about a young saints half back called adam swift is on his way to us next year?

Isn't he a winger?

We have a young french player on trial at the club or so i heard.

Heard than cockayne might be heading down under next year, and that was the reason he turned down KR.
Don't panic it's only a rumour!!

There's probably a joke about convicts and Australia there somewhere! Especially as Ryan Bailey is heading down under as well!

I presume Sam Latus was the player offered in exchange for Cockayne

Is that gen KC? Think his mum and dad live in Aussie.

Vincent Michau, auteur d'une brillante saison au centre de l'attaque de Lézignan ?

Parlez-vous anglais?
Pretty much the only french I need, so what can you tell me about this player and is it for next season or this?

Thats Custard is it not.

Roughly translates as: Vincent Michau, a season of brilliant attacking play from the Lezignan centre.
I had heard of it being Michau, but he is 25 - not exactly young

Pretty sure its English !



Id of thought we'd be looking for a half-back

We'll take Theo Fages too!

and it pretty much means Lee Smith may be on the way out...?

OR !!! Lee Smith getting the 6 shirt and Sykes leaving

Possibly, I don't think L Smith plays his best at Stand off altough I guess after playing their for a while he'd get used to it.

It's what I was told, whether its genuine or not I don't rightly know.
