Interesting strong rumour flying around that Satae will sign for Catalans after the derby

Meh

As long as we make a suitable replacement, I'm not bothered.

Although saying that, do we ask for fee, getting a bit of a joke, we seem to be the only club who just let's players going for free, Abdul, Litten and Connor.

If he wants out then fair enough but it would be madness of the Wakefield variety if we didn't already have a replacement lined up.
That said, could just as easily be a load of tosh.

Maybe the pruning and reshaping like wire did last year is about to start.

As long as a replacement lined up , TS did say it would be one in one out as we have no room on the cap .

One can only hope Mr Cat

The amount of pruning needed would keep Monty don busy for a year .

What a massive downgrade
He must be mental..............

Pruning and reshaping.


The Wurzels and a brand new combine harvester required.

Seems a realistic move, they have two quota spots available and suits the mould of props they tend to go for.

Lets get it right, he has had an average year so far, but should this deal go through it is again a travesty that we lose our best prop whilst certain individuals remain cosy in their undeserved place in the side. I would like to think we have a significant replacement should this prove to be true

Wonder if this would be to get AJ Wallace in

The problem is though who in their right minds would take off our hands the players that ideally need to go before the likes of Satae? No one is really going to come in for the likes of Houghton, Taylor, Evans etc.
As you say you'd think we'd have a player lined up before allowing a player like Satae to leave.
Maybe this is the start of the cull and major changes for 2024

, though it could also be a load of old b0ll0x

Wallace is a SR though isn't he? We'd need to add some size upfront if we we're to move Satae on

He is. Just a name that's been mentioned a lot in the past. Our 2nd row is also short on size/ability so it does improve us there.
Doesn't make up for the size of Satae but potentially thinking of promoting Staveley to full time 1st team.

I only mentioned Wallace because of previous links to him. Not based on anything I've heard.

Hopefully this isn't the 2023 equivalent of us letting Watts go mid season

Equally it could all be a load of balls

Ill be honest I couldnt care less who it is or if we have a replacement lined up. Get em out and get players in who want to be here.

Having a replacement is irrelevant, theyve done nothing for two years. Remember that.

If true I can't see any sense in this, why would we look to trade one of our only players who makes any ground, there's a lot of players I'd be looking to ship out before Satae. Unless he's asked to leave of course.

If we are swapping on a 1in 1 out basis, we'll end up swapping a half decent player.

Who wants to swap a decent player for a rubbish one

Satae has undeniable been our best prop for the last few years and at times the only one with any real go forward. Admittedly he has been under par this season but so has every other player.

Unless we have a top quality replacement to come in immediately it makes absolutely no sense at all.

Who wants to swap a good player for an average one? Rovers with dagger and Hall

Wakefield?

Flying round where? Who is saying that? Are you the source of the rumours?

Satae out and whitbread in (for example) is a downgrade really given what Satae is capable of.

If it is Evans out and Whitbread in then that is an improvement. Where is Daniel Alvaro at the moment, had a great season in a poor Toulouse side
