With Manning, Fieldhouse, Robbo, Tyrer, Ambler etc... all signing extensions it's makes a perfect backdrop for Tonks to re-sign to Fax.

If he's not good enough for Fev in 2012 why should he be in 2013? especially when Fax have extended contracts of most of their key players.

Will be interesting but I think TT will be fax or SL player come 2013.

We bought bottles and asked a steward if we could take them through to the stand and was told we could. It should have been consistent around the ground - either you could or you couldn't.

As for stuff being thrown on the pitch and players spitting, I've heard different things but once again off pitch stuff is being focused on instead of what went on in the 80 which was a great game of rugby. Yeah it didn't go Fev way sunday, but if it had been the other way round they'd have been proud of that win like we are of Fax.

I didn't see any trouble and am glad. I want to see both clubs continuing with the progress they've made so far.

That Tonks rumour must be as good as the Sam Barlow running at a woman and spitting at her one. Tonks was very chatty and personal with Rhino in the corner at the after match party for a long time and as I lip-read one of our totally tanked up directors saying to his mate that Tonks signed couple weeks ago. I must have been the only sober one at that party!! But i got a lot of info hehe. Sam's signing was going to be announced but they didn't as they just wanted them to enjoy... and not take the shine off. A Fev fan (not mentioning no names for his own safety lol) inboxed me saying its malicious about sam, saying he pretended to spit but didn't. However, whoever it was didn't like this pi** take so they reported it as sam actually spitting. Its being investigated by the RFL and if all is the case it will be NFA.

which could well be one and the same seeings how things at Odsal are panning out ?

I have no idea where Tonks will be next year but, it is not true that they thought him not good enough this year. He is not dual reg therefore Fev would have had to breach the salary cap to sign him wheareas we had a vacancy.

So who would fev release in 2013 to sign him?

they love Dickens, Maloney looks good, who?

True, no idea, but I think regretably he will be at Fev next year. Maybe that delightful character rov9899 might have the answer.

think michael haley will make way for tonka, he's a good player but injury prone and he'sout of contract at the end of this season, fevs props next year could be tonks, dickens, england and maloney, that's an awsome front row you have to say, lets see what happens but with tonks only signing till the end of the season and already working well with powell, i can see him at fev next year.

A very reliable source has told me that TT has already signed for next year.

signed for who - Fev or Fax?

I'd be amazed if he's committed to anything as of yet, surely he'd be keeping all his doors open?

Fax.

Ian Croad had a contract in his jacket pocket, said it was for the re-signing which was due to be announced Sunday night, but they'd decided not to announce it so not to take the focus off the cup.

I'd expect it to be announce by the end of the week so the courier can report it in their weekly magazine

Pretty confident that Tonka will be at Fax next year!

Not as dissapointed as Fev fans will be if he does sign for Fax though, no doubt if that happens you'll say you could have had him but didn't want him



It all makes for good banter in the meantime

Yep Barlow and Tonksy have already signed, Ryan had signed 3 weeks before we knew. Only one where there is question mark is Penky....

Makka said he was signing for Fev next year...and in the same sentence said 'i don't go to the gym'...so taking the mick hehe.

Its all the clever PR ... something positive each week....

we'll see.

I was defo about big Sam, as at the after party sunday Croad and sam walked passed the table i was sat at Sam pen in hand and said to Croad "put it here i'll sign it now" pointing at my table, Croad then took him off for a chat at length, both walked back in smiling. How do you know about TT?

Does that me Sam came back and signed your table

Ha ha, I was waiting for you to post Robin as you will know as much as anyone what's really going on.
Do I detect a slight hesitation, I tell you mate he's coming to Fax.

Don't think he'd had that many by that point lol

We are having a few biting, fish and chips for tea again curtesy of Fev Fans.

The old joke is that he will be here for at least 3 seasons.

Might be autumm ,winter and spring but who knows.

Dont think you will "smash" us at Widnes,the Final is at Warrington again

Will happily finish second to you and then lose to you in the playoffs,then IF we get to the Final play you again.... as WE all know you will Bottle it again in the one that really matters !
