I suspect some of the young ones will replace slightly older young ones - Beaumont, Jack Latus, I'anson.

Of the non-club trained players (the club-trained minimum quota is proving more enforceable, so some credit to the RFL) the following are ooc currently - Wheeldon, Mills, Colbon and Walker. Rumours persist about about Fisher and if we did sign Hall, I'd wonder about Ratu's future.
Blake Green seems probable, maybe 2 or at most 3 more seems likely.

Wel Walker we know is looking for another club, Wheeldon playing well at mo prob not well enough, i reckon jack latus is going cos we ave Christian Bell due to sign a deal, Fiher has got another year on contract, Mills as gone , Colbon out and yeah maybe Ratu, think he only signed a year deal can't remember, maybe even Mariano and def I'anson..

The Colbon situation is a bit of a puzzler for me, pre injury he looked very good and seems to fit Justins game plan very well, Extremely hard working winger. Since back in the team he's been out of position and it shows, get him back on the wing outside webbo / welham and he'll get his early season form back. Would be very disappointed to see him leave.

I'll admit I thought Ratu was a complete non starter when he got here, then he suddenly started to play well once he got a run in the team. His defence improved and he seems to have power going forward. He's got another year on his contract AFAIK so can't se him going.

The only other contracted player I could see a shadow over is Cook, he seems very hit and miss and when he has a bad one it really stands out, Scott Taylor looks a better option in the back row than Cook.

I'd assume the definite outs are Cooke, Mills, I'Anson, Wheeldon, Walker and I think Mariano will go.

Why Mariano?

I just think that at his age he hasn't developed into a regular first team player. If he was 18 / 19 I'd say he still had time but he's not so just think it may be a time to move on.

Sorry for my ignorance but how old is Mariano? Is he older then people like Scott Spaven and Sam Latus?

Mariano is 23 (think he's rovers longest serving player)
Spaven and Sam Latus are 20 and Scott Taylor is 19.

I think we have better younger players coming through than Frankie

Ahh I didn't realise he was that old.
I mentioned Spaven though as if he isnt given more first team chances, which I don't think he will with Fisher and Hodgson, who is younger than him, no doubt keeping their spots next year and Murrell there to offer cover, I can't see him being given a new deal.

I quite like Spaven but I agree that I'm not sure how many chances he will get, there is a rumour that if Fisher is moved on and Green comes in he may play 9 with another 6 coming in which would make Spaven staying even more unlikely.

Hasn't he been given an extension to his contract?
To be honest, in the games I have seen him play he hasn't looked to have the same level of potential as Josh Hodgson who looks like he could blossom into a real star for us imo so I can't see him staying and sitting in the stands as a 4th choice hooker.
