Wire will have a real battle to get Yates. Compared to some he is very low risk for me. I cannot really see Hudds letting him escape but salary cap can make clubs do strange things & he will obviously be testing just how much he can get.

They are reputed to be favourites to sign George King from Hull KR so maybe they are already committed to losing Yates?

They also have Tom Burgess, Hill, Wilson, English, Greenwood and Ikahihifo plus others I assume under contract for 2025, so they already have a lot of salary cap tied up in the prop department.

Tom Amone would be a good pick up for us as well if it were possible, think he is out of contract.

Hayes and Holroyd contracts extended to 2027

Yates would be a great signing as he’s already settled here.
No homesickness.
He’s been immense for Hudds this season.
Doesn’t miss his tackles and has got a pass in him like Hilly has.

The noise out if Hudds is like they’ve already lost him.

I read Luke Yates but in my mind I picture Luke Robinson..

Could be worse could be Anne Robinson

Could be even worse than that with Robinson Crusoe - always goes missing.

Could be even worse, could be Eddie Yates (one for the oldies)

I can't use the quote button, but an accurate assessment of the situation. Huddersfield have upped there wage offer, and other clubs are involved now as well.

Yates is big mates with Fitzgibbon from days at Newcastle together I believe

I know a few were keen for us to sign McMeeken, well he as signed a 4 year deal with Wakefield

If it would have taken a four year contract to get McMeeken, I'm glad we didn't as four years for a prop at age 31 this time next year is a bit silly.

Agreed about McMeeken. His prime years have been the last 2-3 years. 4 years is a bit long. He also had a bit of a stinker against Wigan last night.

Well if steve mcnamara let's him go, ...etc

Looks like Ratchford might be getting another year deal and club are considering offering Drinkwater another year due to Hayes' injury.

Thought that we would offer Drinkwater a new contract because of the Hayes injury.

It depends if any other clubs compete for his signature, we definitely need another half to compliment Williams and Hayes but Salary Cap will be a constraint.

Rumours on social media a deal is now agreed for Yates to come here. Hopefully Abe confirms.

Disagree. She'd be great at motivating a team to get stuck in before they left the dressing room, and who would want to face her back in the sheds after a defeat.

Im still waiting for the Nicholson contract extension to be confirmed

Just to confirm, is it Yates from 2025, or imminently for the rest of this season?

It would be from 2025.

If this is you having a 'go' at me I can only suggest you go back to page 236 of this thread and read what I put again.

Having a go? nope far from it, just fishing for information if you knew a rough time the club might announce what you have mentioned. Qutie rate Nicholson highly and the thought of him on an improved deal is great news for both club and player. I shall keep my questions to myself in the future, Ciao
