Bit of a strange one if he genuinely wasn't offered a contract (rather than just being asked to take a pay cut). He'll rank as one of our best signings in the last 10 years, and as he'll be 33 in

Wow this is one that has split the fan base. On paper it doesn’t look like a signing that is going to set the world alight and he’s older than the kind of signing that I thought we would be trying to

I wouldn’t call the likes of Aekins, Mininkin, Gale, Lacans, Reynolds, Springer, Jones, Addy etc scraps. These are all quality players.  Plus there’s over 4 months until the first match. People need t

So Hankinson, Jones, Day, Bussey, Hardy, Lacans, Yei, Longstaff and Evans not announced as leaving.

If Evans is with us next season I'd be gobsmacked. I suspect he just quietly disappeared mid-season without any announcement.

I'm relieved that the club has put out this statement as we didn't want to find out any more departures from third parties.

Now looking forward to seeing who we have coming in. One to be announced today according to that statement.

If most of Jones, Lacans, Hankinson, Bussey, Longstaff and Yei are staying, as well as Reynolds, Minikin, Aekins, Springer and Gale, then I agree that's a solid core.

Some very solid servants that we are saying goodbye to of course, and it's tough for some who clearly didn't want to leave. Harsh game at times though.

So would I, but he is on the list on page 1, so I added him.

Sorry to see that both JDs are leaving according to that statement. 😉🤣🤣🤣

Wow.

Jonny D is on twice - hope that doesn't mean someone else was missed off. 

That was my thought too...

In my head I'd added Yei to the list of PNG players that played a few minutes for us and never returned.  May be wrong

He was chronically underused in my opinion. Ran hard and had a good offloading game, yes sometimes it doesn't come off and he gave a few penalties away but was a game breaker.

I think with Mackenzie that game against Bradford when he lost the ball trying risky offloads changed things. He clearly got told not to do it after that and he was a bit neutered as a result.

Unfortunately when he returned against Widnes he did another ill-judged offload that saw us lose the ball, he was hauled off almost immediately and that possibly cost him his place in the semi final.

For me he needs to play for 30 minutes either side of half time and just remind him to try and use judgment with offloads rather than banning them.

Just re-read the statement. Anyone else think the last sentence of this bit may also be the wrong way around?

We outlined previously that the 2024 season will be a season of rebuilding our squad.  Following the disappointments of last year where we have had record commercial investment in the Club, as well as significant financial support from Mark Campbell and Steven Clough, we will focus on ticking boxes on the field not off the field.

I did wonder that as well.
