I always remember him doing some sort of interview at the start of the season and saying 'even I don't know what I'm going to do next' and thinking it was amusing, while everyone else in the room wore a slightly pale expression of 'oh God'.

We're speaking to Daine Laurie as a potential replacement for Dufty next season. He is 1 of 3 very unhappy players in the squad that aren't impressed with the way the club dealt with the McGuire situation.

It would be a pity if Vaughan was one of the other two but I expect that he is.

I don’t understand the need to sign a fullback. Play Thewlis in his natural position there and sign a top winger.

Thewlis needs to play fullback, otherwise he will be another player who will eventually get pi$$ed off and leave us.

In terms of disruption, reputation, how it’s been handled and the impact on squad morale, this must be up there in terms of the worst signing we’ve ever made. What an utter shambles from the club.

It was McGuires unprofessionalism ultimately which has caused this situation... If three others professionalism can't see it then maybe they should just follow him out ... Although I don't remember josh following players /mates out of the door in Australia at st George when the COVID barbecue scandal happened and they were released

Is the view that Thewlis is good enough under the high ball? He does drop a few, last one being Castleford leading to a try.

May be a mile off here but if it is Dufty and Vaughan that we are talking about just let them go now. We are not going to get relegated so let’s learn if the young ones can cut the mustard with a sustained run through rest of season. Do that and we can then look at the recruitment spots that we really need, just a thought. Oh 3 you said I’m guessing Drinkwater the other one.

I'm presuming it is... Maybe they are of the view what he said isn't offensive in Australia and so he should have been supported... But same offence twice?... If so ...off they go ... Particularly if this is causing team disruption
