I don’t think Patton is a disruptive person, if that is what we are saying. I can’t claim to know him but I spoke with him a couple of times and he seemed a nice guy. I think he just marches to the beat of a different drum, and that was difficult for a temporary coaching team, operating on a match by match basis, to manage. Anyway, we did better when he wasn’t playing, and so we move on. Best wishes to him wherever his next chapter takes him.
Reading their forum sounds like Jones could be staying. Alhough also mentions that the squad has been asked to take pay cuts (Is that the third time this has happened. Sure it happened when they didn't make the original middle 8s and another time when they didn't make the play-offs and only had 14 players for the last game)

Things seem to have gone very quiet on the new signings/retention front. The Reece Lynne signing seems to have hit a snag. I thought something would have been announced before the early bird deadline to gee people up a bit.
Wouldn't worry too much. We signed Lawrence, Thompson, Walker from Middle of November last year. The retentions have been great but we do have some gaps in the squad that need replacing with Baitieri, Segeyaro, Rogers departing and only Hallas & Oakes as the new faces. Looks like Appo maybe leaving too judging by his social media post.

Wouldn’t read too much into Appos post I’ve heard that is underway with png there’s certain timings and legal hoops that have to be jumped through and he liked every fan post asking if he was staying
