Students who have student accommodation, or local players who already own a house and whose partner works are the only talent we will be able to attract to play PT in London. We won't be getting PT players from the north moving down, they won't be able to afford it

And that’s before they go to a pub and try to buy a drink. And imagine if they have to get a cab home. That would blow their minds.

This is a guess but could James have become a mature student up north? He would clearly have had to reconsider his options with Broncos going PT and he'll have been aware of a few others who moved north as students and played RL

I will be surprised if all the squad live down south next year. We'll know more shortly it seems.

Here’s hoping we learn more before they ask us to buy STs because so far it’s more than one player lost for every one retained and no new blood.

Excellent. I was worried we weren’t going to announce any outgoings today. That’s that sorted. Looking forward to tomorrow. Jordan Williams to Swinton perhaps.

Quite surprised by Sam leaving. It was a shame that we did not see much of him last season due to his injury,
York is probably a good place to go. I wish him well.

Looks like tomorrow’s (non) announcement won’t be Williams to Swinton but Jones to Leigh. I knew Leigh would start sweeping up players eventually.

I like how they're drip feeding the exits, day by day, in much the same way a normal club would drip feed the new signings.

They know who's leaving, just put out a list. They don't need to name their destination, just say that they're off.

Re: Broncos Ins & Outs 2022 : Thu Oct 14, 2021 6:52 am  

I’m not even sure they are doing that. Some they do announce, some they don’t. Meadows has definitely gone and has announced it himself, Sid may be a done deal but Trinity want to announce it so we are keeping quiet. Who knows. Either way Meadows has been at the club a long time so an “ all the best” doesn’t seem to be wildly inappropriate from the club. I assume they are embarrassed by the in/ out balance at the moment and don’t think it would look good. On that they are absolutely correct.

This is a quote from Mustard's interview part 2.

"Our staff have already begun trying to ensure there are job options for the new players coming in and most of the lads I have retained are already working and enjoying their new careers.”

Unless he has only retained 2 there are more there to reveal, so get on with it Broncos!!
