We cannot have Wardle and Halsall!!!

For us to get Wardle we needed to give them Halsall.

I’m really struggling to understand how you don’t get that.

Next year we have

Wardle, King and Thornley which is better than either of the 2 combinations you suggest.

The Wardle deal was agreed months ago in early June with negotiations starting in May.

The Halsall/Bibby deal was part of that and agreed at the time.

The King deal is a separate deal made much much later with Warrington.



Ok, I'll accept that.

Just for arguements sake, would you rather have :

Wardle and King/Halsall back up or
Wardle and Thornley/Halsall back up?






Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid.
Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal.
Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.

Wardle and King with Halsall backup…but as I’ve said I’m more happy with Wardle, King and Thornley backup.

2022 we got some long overdue props.
2023 we got some long overdue centres.

We do look strong, Wardle and King bot solid centres that make us stronger, I'd have rather kept the young lads and lost some of the first team. I'd have lost Thornley for Halsall, Isa for McDonnell and Partington for Nicolson all day long and we'd have still signed King and Wardle.

Again though, we can’t simply get rid of players under contract.

Giants wanted Halsall not Thornley who is under contract for next year.

Isa is under contract for next year.

Nicholson wanted to go and even if we did replace Isa for him (under contract) he still isn’t in the 17 which Wire have pretty much promised him he will be and bumped his cash up.
