We tried that with Brown, Robinson, Goulding, Hodgson, Wild, Prescott, Hargreaves etc etc and got whacked week in week out.

Maybe you should drop Gidley, Flannery, Soliola (when fit of course), Puletua, and Meli so that lads in your academy can get a game?

We'll have around 7/8 ENGLISH lads in our starting 13 next season imo and probably 3 on the bench. 4/5 of those in the starting side were trained in OUR academy and 5/6 of them are from Wigan. Of the 3 on the bench then i'd say at least 2 will have been trained in our academy. Compare that to the rest of SL and then tell me we spoil the game.

We are Losing Brett Hodgson, Stephen Wild, Brad Drew, Paul Whatuira and probably a few others.

The quotes on his salary are way off the mark and have come from Australia to appease fans over there.

Cas confirm Shenton is leaving at the end of the season.

It looks like he is definitely going to Saints then.

Is wild leaving the giants ?

OOC. He's joining Salford.

Why're Hudds letting him go?

I've always thought he was one of your better performers whenever I've seen you play (which isn't all that much this season I concede).

Pretty versatile squad player too (can cover centre, second row and loose pretty well).

He has been great for us but has had a lot of niggly injuries which are begining to take a toll. Has lost some of his pace and hence effectiveness.

Has been a great player for the Giants and i wish him all the best at salford. I do not think however there is one Giants fan that thinks it is wrong to let him go.

I hope he proves us all wrong and becomes a real star for Salford.

L Pryce & Feka to Bradford for next season (apparently)

I thought Leon was still under contract for Saints next season unless you are going to pay a transfer fee for him.

The only way saints would let Pryce leave whilst under contract would be if we had a truly world class replacement lined up -someone in the thurston bracket. Those players aren't around so he'll be staying put.

He's our best attacking option and there's no way he's off to the bulls next season whilst under contract. Bulls don't have a penny - how are view going to buy a player like Leon out of a big contract?

I thought this was a transfer thread, not a rumours thread.

Oh, and sorry to burst your bubble Bradford fans, but Leon has no intention of comming back to Bradford anytime soon. This was from the horses mouth last night. Unlucky.

Was you sat next to him at Craven Park last night then with Mr Potter when he was watching Bradford

No, but I know someone who is a close friend with him at Saints.

Simmons might bring Benji Marshall over with him ?

No link, his Twitter comment to Vince mellar said it all though, three year contract.

So it was from the horse's friend's mouth rather than from the horse's mouth?

It was either the pig or the chicken.

I don't think we have a chance in hell of bringing Leon back. It was just what people have been saying. I'd be ecstatic if it happened, but it's unrealistic.

Luke Patten has joined Salford from Canterbury
