Rowley has always coveted our players, from Toronto to Salford. All his scouting trips are to the LSV.
Salford are now the selling club, and the spine 6 & 9 are at Leeds. Wonder when Brierley will return to his spiritual home.

Wisdom not been great since return to UK in my opinion!

So we have let Reynolds leave, a solid stand off, good kicker go and look like we have no replacement. So is this worrying or have we already secured a repalcement. Milford still on contract apparently, Croft at Leeds! Who else is available?

Ben Hunt?

Ben's contract was up at the end of the season, we offered him a contract at the level we believed him to be worth, he's decided to take up a contract offer elsewhere. That's quite different than letting him leave.

Now now, don’t let the facts get in the way of people making up their own stories

Without knowing, I’ll reckon we have a significant half back signing within the next month

Good luck in the future Ben

We still haven’t published a list of released players and seem to be having an really slow off season considering how good the season has been, most clubs have finalised their quota spots. We still don’t know how many we have? Does anybody actually know the contract situation with Ben Nakabuwai?

Re: Squad for 2024 : Mon Oct 23, 2023 12:25 pm  

Ben is one of six out of contract guess on 31/10

with an a team to field must be a nightmare trying to sign double figure number of players
Leeds have given the salford half back a 3 year contract worth over £1million with a trnsfer fee on top the hooker has done well and will be on a good wedge

if Milford can get a visa will he be wanting similar money he had $1 million a year contract thats a lot of decking

If we are still looking for a goalkicking stand off to replace Ben Reynolds, Owen Farrell would be an excellent acquisition who would count 0% on the salary cap in year 1 of a contract and 50% in year 2.
