Wakefield Ram

Publishing international windows would never work in RL as it would require some forward planning...

Guess young people have a lot more choice how to spend their time. And I don't think summer rugby helps. Bumped into chairman from my old club and he said you need a squad of 35 to run a team due to summer holidays, stag dos, etc..

It doesn't. Beaumont wanted more tickets and Wigan wouldn't give them and we're not obliged to. There. "Independent review" completed for free.

Interesting signing as he's a hooker. Maybe a change of tactics and using two hookers rather than Jack McShane playing 80 minutes? And Hookem back to scrum half after doing well at hooker.

It usually is. But sometimes it's work, travel, the coach....all the same reasons we all change jobs.

Thought he played better towards the end of the season.

Keenen was one of our best and most consistent players last season. Never know what's behind the decision but good luck to him.

Interesting. I'm sure Fev will find w way through, but that means paying money out with no income in sight.

Pretty much every SL club is propped up by wealthy donors (investors get a return) and Sky money. And yes DB shouldn't be allowed anywhere near the media making daft threats.

Pre-pack mentioned on Fev forum. Not sure the unpaid players will be too happy with that. Long time ago but I'm sure Wakefield went into administration and never paid for their corporate box stand behind the posts. But if a club has no SL aspirations and it's one league below SL, it makes no difference.

Do Sheffield have any money? Imagine Doncaster and Oldham might pick up a few but if there's little to no chance of SL, how long will there backers keep paying? Feb forum says they are in administration so really serious trouble.

Reading the Fev forum, it says they are in administration and Ben Reynolds is going to Batley.

Wonder if we might be looking at any Featherstone players given they have been told they might not be getting paid after this month?

Given NRL clubs have a salary cap of £5.7m no I don't think any NRL clubs tried very hard to sign him. I'm sure some NRL clubs might have enquired about his availability and what he wanted to be paid, but tried hard to sign him, no.

We will see how he does against the Aussies. Very good player in a dominant side, but his temperament just isn't good enough when his team are struggling. That's why no NRL club had tried to sign him. George Williams is an all-round consistent solid professional. Lewis isn't.
