This is getting a bit weird now. Even for me.

Still raining in Leeds, definately not ice cream weather.

It was the HDM that put it in an press release like it was pretty much done and dusted.

Anyone would think they did thier press releases on the back of what they read on here.

Oh dear, 1st Lovegrove, and now Paea. Maybe you were hasty getting shut of O'Barrell?

I still like Lauaki, think I am officially his number 1 fan!! well in all honesty probably his only fan

Good here innit?..at least its never boring.

So you like puddings then?

Can't believe this had fallen down to page 2!

Just seen wigan have taken matty smith now from salford. Is holdsworth OOC there?

Come on guys this is very disappointing, we have been waiting for your big signing announcements to get some movement on the Tickle deal! Don't say we have got to wait until 2014 for him now!

The increasingly strong word is that we have differing views as to his transfer value, which I had hoped would become less of an issue when you started to announce a few arrivals, oh well I suppose there is plenty of time yet!

Tickle has signed for Widnes, deal done. Dont know when it will be announced but it will be.

Another big loss imo.

I honestly thought when we signed G.Ellis we would have one of the best 2nd rows in the league, we will have to recruit well to achieve than now

So looking at the squad for next year there are alot of positions still to be decided (although Gentle apparantly knows his 17 for next year already).

Briscoe
Yeaman
Arundel
Crookes

Seymour
Lynch
Heremaia

Ellis

Westerman

Watts
Houghton

Whiting one of the subs ?

harsh if that's the plan, unless we have some serious quality coming in. I've been his biggest critic in the past, but he's Mr Dependable, haven't we signed a winger from Bradford (supposedly)?

Possibly, but those I've named are the ones I think are nailed on in those positions, Whiting may well be the other 2nd row.

If you get rid of tickle and replace him with both Whitehead and Bateman you'd have to say that's good business

Even for you, that's far fetched.

Just seen that Tony Tonks has been released by Huddersfield. Could he be a short term answer to your prop problems? Always impressed me when i saw him in the Championship.

Is there a list of OOC players anywhere? Presuming the famous 6 will be on there if we can't announce them until 1st September

Johnson at wakey?

Honestly can't see 6 players in that lot who will suddenly see us challenging the top 4

Maybe some of them aren't OOC?

Maybe, but can't see us shelling out too many fees

God the way we seem clueless I would take Briers for a year .
