Jimmy Maloney hanging up the boots at the end of the season

Great player... does 2 seasons get you in the Hall of Fame though?

Not sure. If he wins us a championship, then it has to be considered

Maloney not retiring after all - signed for FCL who are building quite the team

Meanwhile, we're linked with Mitchell Pearce which would be excellent so far as I can tell.

Interesting views coming from down under of Mitchell.

Will be interested to see if this happens.

McIlorum extends for another year. And while I don't think he's been as pivotal this year as previous, still more than good enough and the general improvement in that area can't be merely coincidental with having him around.

Rich Hunwicks is leaving. Difficult to understate the impact he's had on the strength and conditioning front since he came in four years ago. Big shoes to fill and a key appointment as we try to kick on from what's been achieved this year

It wont be Rodney coming back now !

This is a key appointment as we do have a few injury prone players who need to spend time on the pitch and not in the stands.

nice

Hunwicks has gone to Leeds

Pearce is a very good player still.
He hasn't been himself since he broke up with his girlfriend and cancelled his wedding earlier this year.
He needs to move on from Newcastle.

Its still not done and dusted is it, but looks probable.

If he has the impact of Maloney he will be good, if he has the impact of Willie Mason then not so much !

Pearce is a much more gifted player than Maloney, but Maloney's record shows he produces in big games and in important moments, while Pearce has the exact opposite record. Pearce puts in solid efforts for 80 minutes in game after game, but nearly always falls short in the big, important moments.

Mourgue signed up for 2 more years

Pearce! Confirmed
Happy with that

Fingers crossed he has the same impact as JM.

I'll take 70% tbh

Dylan Napa. Signed, sealed, done

Tyrone May joins.

Hope there isn't a touch of the Folaus about this one.
