Have heard from a good contact that the Manu rumours are a non-starter.

Could he be on his way? We seem to be overloaded with backs.

Must admit that was what I was wondering.

Right from early in the season I always thought that photos of Carlos gave the impression that he wasn't particularly "happy", if that's the right word, so maybe he's homesick and has asked to be released?

Good news.

Someone must be leaving though if 2 new signings coming, unless, we are planning for 2018 season and backloading contracts as we know Ellis, Mini et al will be leaving / retiring by then. This would make sense

Two rumours on twitter are Kelly and Mcgillvary.

Would be very happy with Mcgillvary, quick and strong, although don't see Hudds releasing him.

Kelly not so sure, for a start we would need a quota spot and it would be a gamble, but if fit and his head was right, it could be a great signing. It's a bit like Chase signing for Cas.

Wouldn't touch Kelly with a barge pole. His own teammates disowned him in their hour of need.

I think the outside back is likely to be a young player maybe looking to nick the lad from HKR.
Wouldnt be surprised to see us in for Todd Carney
