Possibly but with how good he's been for Saints and the cap space they must have I'd be surprised if they weren't willing to match Wires offer in terms of length and amount.
There could be some interesting moves all round with some big clubs losing some high earners.

The same could be said for Hodgson and Huddersfield.

Saints have offered him a very good two year deal as the club have already said.
He will be a saints next or playing in the NRL.

| What's everyone's thought's on this Chris Hill from Leigh who Saint's are supposedly chasing? Although Leigh have been on TV a fair bit recently I can't say I've noticed him personally.

| Today showed again that we need a 7 to partner Finch or Sam next year when Deacon retires with Tommy sharing the #9 with McIllorum.
Charnley will be one of the centres imo with another quality signing to replace Carmont with Joel going back to the pack.

Decent solid prop, gets the job done, does nothing special, tackles well.

I dont think Charnley will be centre at all, Madge seems keen on keeping him on the wing and hes doing a fantastic job there. I think Joel will be a great long term centre. Next year our priorties are a 7/Hooker depending on where Leuluai plays and a centre to replace Carmont.

Treated him like a fool
He was only saying last week how well saints looked after him and he loved the club. He also said how grateful he was for saints giving him extra time off for family reasons.
I know a current saints first team player, he's said in a ideal world TP wants to go to the NRL for family reasons but if nit he'll be a saint next year.

I guess the reference to "treating him like a fool" could be related to Saints only offering a one year deal when he wanted two and then changing their mind and making it two when they were worried that he had two year offers elsewhere. Mcmanus might think that an accpetable negotiating tactic but perhaps Pelutua didn't take too kindly to it.
As for point two "current player praises current club" shock. I bet a quick google search finds the same stuff from Eastmond a couple of months back.
I guess its possible that Pelutua signed for Saints with the intent to round his career off with a couple of winner medals. Only having a couple of years left of his career he perhaps thinks a move away from Saints to Warrington will still give him an opportunity to acheive this.

He was asked to take a pay cut 4 times as saints claimed with the new signings they only had that figure to spare (which was only 20k short of what he asked for), the minute Warrington became interested and offered the money he wanted Saints miraculously found the other 20k for an offer which upset him. It isn't 100% but if I was a betting man I think TP will be a Wolf come next season

Utter rubbish.
The initial contract saints offered TP was a year with a option of another year but TP wanted a concrete two year deal.
Saints went away and came back with the concrete two year deal.

Maybe it had more to do with a bigger club coming in with more money.

I go on the statements from the parties involved over speculation.

| Quote ="thepriestman85"I love how people simply dismiss stats when it suits them.
I simply do not think that Briscoe is the next big thing like many on here are making him out to be. I've seen him play both live and on the TV and I’ve yet to be wowed by him but yet reading some of the comments on here he's the next big hope of English RL?
The stats back me up on this one. He’s got comparable numbers to other wingers like Blanch and Broughton who were playing in far worse teams. Lets not forget that although Hull FC weren’t great last season they still had enough to finish 6th in the league. When you compare him to other play off wingers like Hodgson and Hall he’s found serious wanting on all aspects.
Dismiss the stats all you want but sadly he’s neither standing out on my tv or on the screen.
I honestly can’t believe people are saying we should pay a transfer fee for him? That would be the biggest waste of money since Ritchie Myler.'"
Too right, keep him where he is?
Why would you want the best winger in SL, who has great defence, runs like a forward, offloads and scores trys that no other winger in SL can.
It would cost Wigan a lot of money to sign him, he may leave Hull in the future if we don't kick on, hopefully if he does it will to the NRL.

Lol the best winger in SL?
This is the exact kind of over hype I'm talking about.
King, Richards and Monaghan are at a far higher level than Briscoe.

I rate him but NO WAY is he the best winger in Super League.

Meant to say English, he has potential to be as good as the ones named, would need to prove himself in the NRL though.
Saying that the three above don't score trys like Tom does, their all round game is maybe better though

He is a decent Super League player but not NRL standard yet they have some freakish backs down under and he doesn't compare to any of them.
