Wish i bookmarked all the posts when people get on their high horse with "you cant just bin off a player mid contract, you just cannot do it" followed by a "salary cap" paddy fit

Heard we put a bid in for larne Patrick and Lawrence from giants £100k for both ?

Agree to both of the above, can't fault his effort but just wasn't good enough to make the required impact as a forward and was rarely in the 17.

Goes to show we are still suffering from over inflated deals for average players.
At least AP is not standing for mediocrity and is determined to bring success even if it means he has bin players to achieve the goals set.

+1

Good luck Paul, always gave 100% but a Gentle signing and falling under the "average" tag, not too surprised to see him being shipped out, a good squad player with a good work ethic, sounds like he's got a gig at Widnes, so we move on and hopefully we see a bigger, meaner prop coming in

I have being a massive critic of his signing (along with a couple of other signings) since day one and I still cannot fathom who signed him or why. He was never going to be what we needed in our pack.

However, his effort and determination could never be questioned and it is a real shame that he doesn't have the size or strength to go with it.

So, who else do we think is out of the door, or never going to actually come through it?

Pitts and McDonnell sound like they're "at risk". I've been told that McRae gave out some stupid contracts and those two have a couple of them (Green also apparently given much more than market value).

Motu Tony supposedly talking to Adam Blair.

Are you suggesting one of our signings wont arrive?

What about, How he is?

Blair?? no thanks!

I'm sure Blair will have a list of offers to take over his $500,000 a year contract. Especially based on his first two years at Wests!

Wouldn't be surprised if Wests pay alot of that just to get rid.

He'll end up at Parra!

Doesn't everyone?

I don't know how good/bad he is. I'm merely passing on what I've heard about ins and outs.

Back ended?

Blair's been terrible in a terrible West's side .

Like the article says, he is strong, good offload at times but his work rate is pretty poor at times

Just seems a bit strange when he wanted to come home and asked for an early release, or could it be that he's still owed some for the years he was there?

At a guess, unless they've got it wrong.

Not because I know anything, just assume any player not signed by Radders/Motu is a possibility?

Isn't that just Thompson and Paea?

Both have been modelling our new training gear, not saying it's a cast iron guarantee.

We wont pull out of either of those deals IMO - the fact we stopped the pusuit of Mika is good news though
