I really hope this isn't true. When he is on the pitch he is arguably our best prop forward.

10:20pm and the man of steel still hasn't been announced, is it usually this late?

Jenna Brooks enough said she just does not stop talking. Nsemba young player of the year. Willie Peters coach of the year so far.

From what I hear it’s going to take a lot to bury that hatchet. Duckie might get his wish in seeing the back of Vaughan.

My wish was for Vaughan to play like he did when he first arrived against the easy teams, (he had a habit of getting himself suspended for games agains the big clubs during school holiday periods).

If we don’t get that, he can go with my blessing. He’ll be 34 next season anyway.

I’d like to know why Vaughan managed to become so in-match fit during the 3 weeks paid holiday he had!?

I expected him to be ripping it up like a lion vs Saints and KR, all fresh from action…
He wasn’t even ripping up dandelions!

Re Bullock.

I don’t think there is a fallout with him.

I think what’s happened here is, we signed Yates and Bateman, and we probably contacted Salford to loan them a player.

My guess is we offered Salford Wood, but Rowley said ‘no, but we’ll have Bullock!’ and hence the bizarre timing where we’re extend his contract one week, and loan him out a week later.

I’m guessing Salford tied Wire’s arm up behind their back,
Under the cap circumstances, had to agree to let them take Bullock.

I don’t believe he just fell out of favour, or suddenly became a poor player.

I think Bullock was always going to be bench prop or 18th man.
And I think he will be back with the team next season.

I don’t know this for sure, but it’s the only way I can make sense out of it.
