Where are all of these rumours of Martin leaving coming from?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Mon Jun 19, 2023 4:39 pm  

Just rumours from an article about senior players being unhappy

Just the usual 2+2 = 5

I wouldn't be too bothered if we can get Fitzgibbon.
His recent form has been poor and hi goal kicking has been hit and miss lately.

Not that impressed with Fitzgibbon tbh also he can't play centre so don't think he'll be a serious option I like Martin he's downturn in form coincided with him playing centre a position he's not happy with and if there's anything in the rumours it's probably for that reason with Bentley looking to get a gig elsewhere also im guessing we have some options in that position?

Largely started on here it seems. An attempt to create the truth rather than have an opinion on what the truth actually is.

Martin was really explosive when he first came. Being loved around constantly won’t help. Wonder if could be bit fitter too…..

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Tue Jun 20, 2023 11:25 am  

he's probably fit enough for second row. centre is a different type of fitness. not sure he is overly happy being a full time centre

Obviously I'm not a super league player but from my own experience as a second row / centre, I find it much easier to play centre and less tiring, as you're involved in less tackles and less hit ups. Its a very interchangeable position.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour thread V4 : Tue Jun 20, 2023 11:59 am  

it is but I found 2nd row more physical and centre more fitness based. I struggled at centre. I wasn't agile enough. I got exposed one on one
