A few reports on twitter saying Ash Handley hasn't signed a new contract and will leave at the end of the season, Hull KR has been mentioned.

No great loss as far as I’m concerned

It's a shame for him that he's probably come through a couple of years too early, however I definitely think he has the makings of a decent super league 3/4, a club like KR is a good level for him.

If he goes, I wonder which of the academy lads will take his place in the squad

No not really but we still need a backup winger, that role might go to Golding if he can't displace Walker at FB.

Wire are talking to James Maloney.

Why aren't we offering him a deal?!?!

Dave Tyrell set to leave Souths

Maloney will cost an absolute fortune, he’s contracted and Souths and knights are in a bidding war upwards of 900,000 Aus so about £500,000 maybe more. No point at all and he’s 31 nearly 32. We are still in for Tangantese from the Sharks though apparently and Chris Hill is wanting a move away from the wire.

Would take Hill in a heartbeat, be surprised to see him go anywhere but NRL from the Wire though.

Disagree as he has the potential and the pace something our current wingers don`t have.
I`m not saying he is a better option but would still have him in the first team squad.
He probably thinks he should be getting more game time at this stage of his career and don`t blame him for looking elsewhere.
