If it's true then it will be a loss this season but probably better for the club in the long term. Quite a chunk of salary cap tied up in a player who will be 35 when his contract finishes and who is already missing matches due to niggling injuries in year 1 of a 3 year deal.

Still think it's unlikely he will leave though

why would he walk away, being paid a fortune and not having to play, win win for him.

(he's a decent enough player, but he's proven to be a liability so far)

Ridiculous comment. McKinnon had been one of the best attacking options we have and sound defensively. He may have made a couple of silly errors, but don't label him a 'liability' is stupidity.

Rod god not been funny but don't have to name my source to you or anyone tbh

Leaving this week apparently!!

if you're going to start threads about it, you at least need some credibility

uote="Rock God X"Pointless speculating until the OP names his source or it's conxfirmed by the club. Sounds quite unlikely to me.'"

Jesus. Whiting or Horne to FB, then, if either are ever fit.

How can we let a player go in a position we have no proper cover, in the middle of an injury crisis

Jesus Christ!

I suppose he could do a job at f/back...

I had heard like a few others on here he hasn't settled and he doesn't like the cold

flippin 'eck we have had a mild winter, bleedin heat wave last month

Really hope this isn't true, but like others I heard a bit ago that he hasn't settled.

hear he's got good footwork, could walk on water apparently

Would be quite a blow short term but long term could be very good news for the club if true. We could surely use the cap space better over the next two years.

Minichiello anyone

Wade, Turner, O meley, manu, moa all possible departures ?

He's quite often spot on (well far more than most on here)

His family haven't settled because they are not here! Still in oz.
Culture shock for wade as he is an outdoors type person and over here with our weather and much more indoor living so wouldn't be surprised if it is true. However if true on a positive side of things we will have a huge amount available on the cap to find a suitable replacement for next season but quite a difficult job in replacing a player of wade's ability IMO.

Just will take another year of rebuilding and new team to gel

Well Gentle did say in the after match interview yesterday that we are about 2 yrs behind Hudds...

This would be a huge blow. Injury notwithstanding he's been a great attacking threat and is safe at the back.

He did hint in the Mail no so long ago that he found things hard at first but it sounded like he had settled.

The club will have to look for a replacement from outside the club. Lyne is no more a fullback than I am and Horne is needed at stand off.

if the rumours are true is mcinnon going back now or end of the year

Now
