| Lets get a few things right here.
1) Many players do not know there future with the Club & the Club have to tell them by the End of this Month, one way or the other.
2) Some meetings are taking place tomorrow, but players that will be having meetings at this time of the year are probably not in the Plans at the Club
3) Morrison is NOT Highly paid within the Club, there are many more on more money, as far as I am aware his meeting is tomorrow and will talk to the club but as I said above I don't think that he will be in the plans now, frustrating because he is one of the best and I know for a fact he would consider staying with pay cut or pay as you play structure or probably mixture of both.
I would have personally kept Morrison over Southern that's coming over, by all accounts, all he's done is play Reserves all year and nobody in Australia will offer him a contract because he's prone to Injuries. (Not sure how true that is but was told by someone I trust)
Looks like we have Signed : Kirmond, Releigh & Kyle Wood from Shudds & Smurph & Tommy Lee are going the other way.

| This site is all about putting down opinions however I think it could be done with a little more decorum as far as Korki is concerned he is in my opinion worth another year but what he does not deserve is all this back bitingt by people who have probably never pulled a shirt on in there lives, a bit of respect please.

I wish Korki all the best but in my opinion he hasn't warranted a new contract...

| I wouldn't put too much stock in what players tell you at this time of the year; it's a bit like judging the quality of a company by what a couple of blokes say about their manager in the staff canteen.
What players fail to point out when they cry neglect, is the involvement of their agents and their attempts to tout their clients services around to leverage a better deal.
It's never as straightforward as one side or the other will have you believe.

| Personaly I would like to see Morrison stay and when he is on form Korki as well but we have to move on and the guys at the business end of the club have more idea than me, it is just that Morrison in particular gave 100% every time he turned out and was a credit to the club when he played for the exciles (not sure that is how you spell it)

| Would keep Korki if it was well within budget. Props we are short of at mo. Would only be a one year to give him motivation to earning another year.

Point 3 is not totally correct. I like Glenn a lot and would have offered him a new deal but he was highly paid and there weren;t more on better money

| Southern has hardly played 1st grade last 2 years. Not sure why, could be down to injuries and not been able to force his self into the side. He is however a very good player.

Please spare us the sob story, there are players in RL like there are people in all walks of life who get shafted, this individual IMO is more a shafter.'"
all of a sudden where at the bar wrong again
as for the sob story it aint, its an expression of that all players are treated like meat when they get to they used by date
just goes to so how wrong you can read into posts if you try
would I probably give a another year my self no I don't think I would if we had the money to spend, the same with Semi Tadulala, Sam Obst time to move on and discover new players.
likes of Jay Pitts I would be inquiring about

| Played 7 games this year. One of which was in the first round of playoffs i think.
Has 130 NRL games to his name so must have something about him.
I think Southern could turn out to be a good signing for us but will reserve judgement till i see him on the field.
As for jay pitts. We should fill our key positions first at prop and halfs with one utility back. If there is anything left over then Pitts would be a good sighning.

I was told by someone there were at least three players on more money (And not just by a couple of grand)at the start of the season, wasn't three players on more by the end though. (Read into that what you like)
Point is he would stop for a paycut, Crazy letting him go, gives 100% and I bet everyone on here cannot name 5 others that would do the same in the last decade, especially with whats been going on in the last couple of seasons. Warriors are hard to find and we just seem to let them go.
I will have you a bet he ends up at a bigger club than Wakefield next Season, by that I mean finished in top 8 last year or have been Grand Finialists

| Other than Quins I can't see him getting any other offer.
SL clubs are not going to get in a bidding war for someone who gives 100% (when we are on the telly or when he needs a new contract)

Wrong. At least two, possibly three other clubs are interested in him. For me should have been signed up and offered the coaching role that we offered Broadbent.

That can't be levelled at GM so i'm assuming that you're talking about Korki here?

I haven't really seen that much of him over the last couple of seasons, but from what I have seen, the number of penalties he gave away was probably in part down to over-motivation and the responsibility of guiding a young and inexperienced team round the park. There are worse things to be guilty of, I suppose.
We've had 2 good seasons out of him - better than a lot of Bradford fans thought we'd get when he left, due to the amount of time he spent out injured. Perhaps the club think they'd be chancing their arm going for a third? Perhaps Agar has his own plans and his own man for the captain's position? Perhaps it is just a case of looking for better value for money over the long term?
That said, if the deal were right for both parties, I'd stick with him too.

| Morro is our captain for gods sake he aint some bit part player like Hendo. Morro with decent players around him can still cut it at the highest level. Exciles as a example probably unlucky not to get man of the match. We should be trying to keep him and Smurph. Criticise Cas all you will but they have kept Rangi would we have done??? Or let him go to someone like Huddersfield??

I don't think its just the number of penalties thats the problem, its the nature of them. For our club captain to be giving them away for discent etc doesnt bode well for the rest of the team. Added to this he seems to have a short fuse and is easy to rattle (relatively compared to his experience) see Donny away in the cup for a prime example, coupled with his age and "fitness problems" I think the money is most probably better spent on somebody else - although I wouldn't be too miffed if he did stay as it would probably be on next to nothing money wise, but refer him to be replaced by a brit of some description though.
