Well fine, the same applies to them then.

I'd be disappointed with a couple of these. Ben Evans is promising and has shown me enough to warrant a stay tbh, and Simon Grix is brilliant for us when fit, he was instrumental in the play off's for us in 2013. O'Brien wouldn't go for me but I understand he will be surplus to requirements next season.

There isn't much wrong with Ben ON the pitch.

He said: “For us to do some other things and tinkering, we’d probably have to move someone the other way. We’re still looking and we’re still tinkering and I reckon in the next little while we might do something. “There’s a lot of players still available and when little things happen it does have a chain effect. I think there’ll be some movement for a while yet.”

Hirst is a hooker, possibly best suited to being bench interchange to attack a tiring defence. Foggin Johnston is an exciting winger whose strength and speed belies his size, I was surprised we didn't offer him a first team contract (although that may be due to the fact that we have a lot of wingers already). May prove to be a favourite at Doncaster if he sticks at the game.

Both highly rated I think but other will know better. I think Hirst is a prop and F-J a winger. Is it a loan deal or permanent?

Cheers lads, from the brief clips i saw of foggin johnson you could see the boy has talent (a bit like greg johnson from salford) and i'm sure dan hirst is coming here as a number 9, anyway stephen hawking and the sugar monster would be an improvement on what we have here! thanks for the info

Hirst has never played anything but hooker for Warrington. They are both Yorkshire based players, hope they do well.

I think a couple of the other lads have signed for Halifax.

Btw I have heard that Chris Bridge has left the club already and is no longer training with us in any capacity.
