I dunno mate but Tom Olbison is alright.

He was a bit average last year but in 2015 he was very good. When he’s on top of his game he makes good ground with ball in hand, his defence is solid and he runs good lines. However he did suffer a drop in form last year and he was pretty anonymous. He should benefit from a move as he’s been with us a while and may have got stale. He’s not the biggest, fastest or strongest but he gives 100%.

You'll certainly never be annoyed at Olby's lack of effort. Which I've always said I'd prefer over someone more talented who doesn't look like they are that ar$ed.

I'm starting to lose track of who's officially left. As far as I know the players that have left are:

Walton - Fev
Mellor - Huddersfield
Olbison - Widnes
Welham - Salford

Cheers mate it sounds a player who could fit into the Widnes mould. Rather have hard working players who do their best. Anyway sorry about the news and hopefully progress in the near future.

Updated the list for all the confirmed departures. I expect Moss and Burr are unlikely to return if we need to re-apply for visas/work permits etc but you never know. Kavanagh and others still included until we hear confirmation of otherwise.
