I believe that a record number of players will be off contract both in the UK and Aus at the end of the season.
From Saturday 1st May the lists available
Does anyone have a list of players at Wakefield who will be out of contract.
Players could be made available before the end of the season on either a loan or permanent basis. If the Trin have a player of interest. I'm sure Leigh will be showing interest from tomorrow.

Please note this is a 'i think' list, please don't take it as gospel! Also some may have signed new deals but just not yet announced or i've missed them.

Kyle Wood
Joe Arundel
Ryan Hampshire
Jordan Crowther
Joe Westerman
James Batchelor
Matty Ashurst
Max Jowitt
Alex Walker
Chris Green
Josh Wood
Lee Kershaw
Brad Walker
Oliver Greensmith

I’m not a fan of this type of thread as it gets cut throat when real people are involved. So sorry if some take offence at my thoughts.
Only ones I’d like to keep are :
Joe Arundel
Ryan Hampshire
Jordan Crowther
Joe Westerman
James Batchelor
Max Jowitt
Brad Walker
Oliver Greensmith - not seen enough

Need to be ruthless if looking to recruit less but better quality.

I

I agree with you and I completely agree with the list above. We need a bit of a playing staff overhaul imo this season and some fresh faces.

Tough decisions to be made as to the quality and size of the squad we go with , big name signings get crocked just as easy as the run of the mill players , or worse still don’t perform .Even though we have kept the majority of our roster this year I think most will agree that we’ve all been left a little jaded at their performances so far, even taking into account the ever changing starting line up . Is the coach included in this overhaul or just the players as am I wrong in thinking this is his last season of his contract . Still a long way to go in this season and hopefully a steady improvement in our game, and with that there is plenty of time for players to stake their claim for a renewed contract

Blake Austin is out of contract and Warrington aren't playing him.
I'd take him on loan till end of season.

Leigh might beat us to it, i've heard they are already after 4 players to strengthen there squad.

That won't happen, Chester will never leave out Miller (and he's supposed to be fit for the Leeds game) and we've only just brought in Lino.

I think the retaining list Mayble seem accurate,, however I think Westerman will end up at Cas..
So we will definitely be looking for a no9 and probably a prop if we don't get one this season.
Farges at Saints not been offered a contract yet.
Must agree with PopTart Austin would be a brilliant sighning

TBH before his injury, Miller was playing really well so I wouldn't swap him for Austin if he comes back and stays playing well. The grass is greener in this case IMHO.

Agree Miller was playing well before his injury.
I'm not for playing players out of position but I would like to see him at 9.

We have a quota spot does Leigh.

That's not far off from where I'd be.

100% Westerman will be at Cas next season,I don't even think this is questionable, it's it's done deal

A true pro,unlike the other guy that left for Cas,MOS or no MOS.

Anyone seen a full list of the players available. I ask because apparently Salford have 7 player that have yet to be offered contracts.

There is a website called Zero Tackle, which lists off contract players, both here and in the NRL, and you can filter it by club or by position.

Thanks 4 that

Just watching shudd v st our pivots are poor compared to other teams 1 67 9 13

First one I though of too but has it been kept up to date? I know a few year back a lot of the data was incorrect.

Get the quality right in those positions and your in with a shout ,matching saints in all departments apart from silly penalties which ultimately has cost them a semi final spot .

Being able to have the same players each week, in those pivot positions, would aid our cause.

Unfortunately that’s part and parcel of our game ,and every team has to go through it at some time ,and for me that’s where the coach earns his coin . Hopefully when we get our first win the confidence will come back into our game and we kick on. The effort is there but poor execution at times is hurting us, but we have chance to change all that when we play a Leeds team low on confidence and struggling with injuries ,and should be a great contest and hopefully get our season back on track

Think this shows how bad Mr Chester is as a Coach Apart from a 9 .We are on par at 1,6,7,and 13 with some of the teams in S L .The trouble is that Mr Chester as no structure in the team .That is why we are playing the worst rugby compaird to the rest of S L. It's all down to coaching Rember J K coming with is part time Bradford team in the cup ,and there 6,7,and 9 run us all over the park and were unlucky not to win

Huddersfield have got a cracking team this year, perhaps one of the best they have had in superleague.
