| Quote ="SaintsFan"Both are very good questions. It seems like the decision came from Rod Finlay, the CEO. He reckons they are not financially sustainable as a Superleague entity at present. My guess is that they are not. What this will do to their small but thoroughly loyal band of supporters and their capacity to reinvent themselves in the Championship (assuming they play there) I don't know, but IMO it's a damn shame that the project has collapsed so badly. I was really shocked when I learned they had withdrawn.
I'm sure all the traditionalists will be happy though! Stuff spreading our great game to new territories, an M62 heartland club have stayed in. Myopic.'"
What I don't get is if they are not financially viable in SL, how does reducing their income in the championship make them any more viable. SL players can be no more than 50% of revenue as it stands. I hope they do go in the championship, but not holding my breath. Maybe the money was never viable. |

I don't think Senior is that well liked tbh so no. |

Putting Senior in the centre?
Is that an improvement on either Meli or Shenton?
I don't think so, Meli has proved very useful at centre so much so he would have been centre in the exiles squad if not for the drop out of King. Replacing 1 out of the top 2 foreign centres with Senior would be a mistake.

He thinks it is demeaning to play in the Championship.
Personally, I hope nobody offers him a job. But I'm sure someone will be desperate enough.
We aren't that desperate though. We have much better centres already. |

We have better options for centre than senior. |

O'hara could be a good signing, but does he only stand out because he is playing in a poor team?

I'd say he's done remarkably well to perform how he has in a constantly beaten pack. Put him in a pack like Saints, Wigan, Huddersfield etc.. and he could prove to be an incredibly valuable workhorse. Certainly isn't shy of putting in the hard yards. |

I've not looked at his stats. I just thought he stood out more because all the other forwards they have, aren't near as good.

Think Chan will be a good signing for the Giants. O'Hara got player of the year the other year, club captain and stat wise very impressive.
Was at West Tigers a few years back so Royce should know all about him, looks the best bet for prop.

Well, none of them are going to be commanding a massive wage and will all be glad of a job next year, plus there's the possiblity they will not have to relocate if they go for Saints as we're reasonably local.
