I refer back to the first line of the first post in this thread... ^

Ok everyone. Gelling is now off topic. Any further posts will be deleted .



Any posters making allegations and reporting rumours gossip innuendo etc may find their posting rights limited.



In light of the alleged seriousness and possible criminal investigation we need to avoid speculation.



When it all becomes clear when evidence is reported then it can be discussed. This topic now needs To go back to signings and players leaving NOT SUSPENSIONS.



Folau is not a topic for discussion in this thread. He has his own topic

Ryan Shaw....Leeds Carnegie RU - Leigh Centurions

Good.signing. lad can finish very well. Also a very good goal kicker

Very happy with that Budge.

Do the Leeds ruggers still play at Headingley ?. If they do the Rhinos want to turf them out because they’ve made a mess of the pitch with all that rolling around on top of one another and their never ending scrums.

Headingley: Nice stadium shame about the pitch (and the western terrace).

Oliver Roberts Huddersfield to Salford season long loan.

like Ikahihifo another that has gone there after not showing any form for 2 years so hopefully for us they find some and improve us next year

It has worked for Ikahihifo so far - been our second best forward behind Dudson and missing those two against Huddersfield really cost us. Sometimes a change of scenery does a world of good but our trainer does seem to have a way with forwards (although the jury is still out on Pauli).

That's good, Seb was massive for us in 2017 but fell away, if he can get his mojo back this year we will both benefit from it.

Would tat be the Headingley pitch which along with ground staff as won numerous awards in recent years.



yes its always a mess at the start of the year when both sides are playing on it, but its pretty pristine by end of May-June again.

Tony Gigot to Toronto on a 1 month trial deal.

Will that be a free trial?

Signed as an 'amateur' apparently so getting paid nothing. You can only play amateurs in the reserves though so don't know how that works with him being named in the 21 man squad and I assume expected to play this weekend. RL journos are waiting for the RFL to clarify.

The lance Todd winning Frenchman will make a great addition to the Toronto ranks

I'd read there was interest in him from Toronto if they have room for him within the rulings of the cap then no problems, if their breaking it then fine and points deduction will be in order



Simples

Maybe his wife or partner is working in the club shop

According to the rfl, amateur players can only play in the reserves league ?

RFL have now stated he’s not actually an amateur just a trialist who won’t be getting paid so can play.

No doubt he would, on present showing so would most other players, their problem which maybe you can't grasp is, if they are up to the full cap how can they play him.

The salary cap is now live so Toronto haven’t broken the cap. Unlike Wakefield who managed to break the cap and get a points deduction all whilst having an awful squad

And still only managed to avoid relegation by one point lmao

And why wouldnt he play for nothing

if this gets allowed then the rfl armored spineless and stupid then even we think they are

Turning into a free for all. The brave new SL dawn didn't last long, did it?

It's there (and has been for a while) in black and white in the rules. Nobody's being spineless, breaking rules or doing something other clubs haven't done before! The faux outrage when anything like this happens is hilarious!
