I guess that uncertainty of Super League status will make replacing Asiata and Amone even more difficult than it already is

It is a strange one. I know Hull are wanting to bring more experience in, but with Briscoe already there to play on the wing, I'm not sure I'd be wanting to resurrect that centre / wing partnership again. Maybe they'll move Hardaker into the second row?

And you'll have him on a contract that lasts long enough to see him driving to work again

Leigh don't win the close games this season.

Two year deal as well. Dan Tomlinson, who I assume to be Richie Myler's godson, is reporting that Leigh offered him a deal, but I would be amazed if he was offered more than one year. Pretty much the same scenario that led to him signing for Leigh in the first place. Frankly, I wouldn't be too fussed if he made the move now. Wouldn't be too surprised either.

Aaron Bower reporting Hull offering Hardaker a multi year deal. Myler has clearly implemented an extensive scouting system

The only party in this merry go round that I can see this working well for is Cas. They've got a player off the wage bill that they don't want. Meanwhile, Hull KR appear to have loaned out one player that wont play and replaced him with someone else that won't play. While FC seem to have brought somebody in to also not play.

Leigh's inability to manage a game without Asiata to continue, and Salford's centres to run riot.

That would make Reynolds an even stranger signing. Is he even going to play? Seen the quotes from Myler saying he will add depth, which suggests not.

Makes sense, but it is still passing on the faff onto the fans, rather then dealing with it themselves. Must be able to get an idea of how many scanned in through the turnstile ahead of the women's game and use that data to divvy up the ticket money.

I thought they were using safety officer reports of actual attendees, with the odd spot check?

Wonder what the players in the men's game will think, as everybody leaves just as they run out to warm up

Then it makes it even stranger. Maybe a financial technicality that means income from different games need to be diverted to different entities? I don't think I've ever known a double header have this sort of arrangement.

It does seem like an almighty faff. I wonder if they need to do this to get the accurate attendance figures to the safety officer to then use for IMG grading submission?

Very fair comment! Although, this does seem to go a bit beyond the usual article with very little content being given a clickbait headline, and goes onto completely misquoting somebody for a completely untrue, clickbait article. Probably knowing that the individual in question has plenty of detractors and that it will provoke a reaction from fans of various clubs
