Close, wrong player though I understand.

Smurph?

Wed be mad to let Murphy go with what's looking to be a very positive year on and off field next year. Unless they offer us brough back in return

If it is so, it might not be something we could do much about. I heard back when they signed Ferguson during the fire sale that they went in for Murphy then and that it was agreed he would stay for the season and then go.

Didn't smurph sign a new contract after we'd come out of admin?

Murphy is contracted for next season.

Luke has, as been said, had his best season this season, but is it a case ,again, of him either 1, playing for a new contract with us or 2, playing for a move.
How many times have we seen this happen, player in last year of his contract having a blinding season.

Would hardy say he's had a blinding season. He's been good with one or two strong games. But has played only half a season yet again.

If he signs great, if not oh well we can find someone else for the wing spot. With Murphy and Mellars we have our centres next year. He would be a good wingman if he stays fit but Is not irreplaceable.

He'll be a bloody handful with good ball players, decent service and dummy runners around him. Debatable but I think he's got more ability than Atkins but probably less desire. A good coach will sort him out.

Played a blinder against Huddersfield at BV - as well as his attacking flair he was a tackle machine! Wonder why..

And then once the deal has been secured, play like an absolute donkey the year after... ie:- Tadulala, Jeffries, Korkidas even Rooney fits into that category.

Not sure I agree - I can't see how a coach, good or otherwise, will make him more physically robust.

Talk on the Cas board that Hudds are signing Greg Eden. Would they need George as well if this is the case?

I am a fan of Luke and he has been quite good this year but yet again only had half a season while i would be disappointed to see him leave it could be for the best. Although it would be typical to see him play full seasons without injury if he did leave.

Has had his best season but injuries have again meant that he hasn't played enough games. I'd like to see him stay but on a 1 year contract 2 at the most.

He has a sore ankle and is trying to break the world record for most time off with a minor injury. This is when we need players to step up, not wimp out.

sort of agree, when he gets his head around it he can be very good, but, injuries apart, how demoralising is it for the younger players not to get decent runs in the team, some players aren't as strong mentally and young heads can go down easily.

I can only imagine you are posting on the wrong thread

if true i dont care hes a sicknote have we ever had more than a 3rd of a season out of him

So you'd rather have a full season from a poor player or a third from a good one.

Really is a silly argument. The bulk of his sick note time was due to a career threatening knee injury. The rest was more to do with Kear not picking him. What's happening now is probably politics. I'd love to keep George but I think his fate was sealed when we all thought we were out of SL and there is the real culprit.

5 yr deal ?

Any player who can get a 5 year deal should snap it up, don't know if its true but Luke should take it if its offered.

there giving them away at shuddersfield like sweets

Are you confusing contracts with season tickets?
