Perhaps our forward planning is to be the strongest team in the Championship ,then the HJ can be touted as an ideal development opportunity while we play at Vicky Park.

Ratchford to saints won't happen, we need the cover for Halfback/fullback.
All the best to Billy, he came over and it didn't work out simple as.
And like Alffi said, Harrison could be earmarked for the 13 position, and Jason Clark is there for back up and experience. So we're not any weaker really with Billy leaving. Does his wage come off the cap as he's been released, or does it stay on? I must admit we've discussed salary cap with players leaving etc but i still can't work it out?

Totally agree..

There is a very strong rumour that Ratchford has signed a new contract with Wire.

He is not a young player, requiring game time to improve his skills and is playing regular 1st team Rugby League here.

Another successful Powell signing!!! Who's the next out of the door? Bullock? Charley? Long staff? Ratchford?

If rumours are to be believed Charnley will be at Leigh next year subject to promotion. I can’t see them having cap space to take him early though, although we would accommodate.

If I was to take a punt at next one out of the door, I’d go with Davis. Probably the most likely to find a club in other championship.

Ironically, it looks like Leigh are pursuing Davis for 2023 season.

I thought Charnley had already signed for Leigh for 2023? Pretty sure it’s been confirmed.

Ratchford is rumoured to have signed a 12 month extension, which makes sense as I think Powell sees him as a positive influence and also a huge utility value (at the right price). He’ll no doubt be expected to provide some guidance to the backs too.

They were showing some interest, but I am not aware that he has signed up for them yet?

Given the way their two wingers played last night, which I saw on TV, they don`t need him.

Not sure how old Inu is though, so maybe they want him for their left wing?

Ferguson is a monster and will light-up Super League next season, if Leigh get promoted, which on current form they will

What do you call the right price?

Good question, I wonder whether KFP made one of his magic. Bean signings and Powell never fancied him. Or whether Powell got it wrong?

Injury made it difficult for magoulias but it wasn't a great signing, he leaves without making a single contribution for his already small highlight reel.
