Best move Wakefield could have ever made. Ellis is the worst professional rugby league footballer I've ever seen.

Send him to Dirty Fev as punishment.

Really bad move, I felt he was the better option to Wood to partner Aiton next season. Still if he's not going to figure in Agar's plans its better to free up his salary. Hopefully Trinity will not be contributing a percentage of Ellis' wage now he's at Featherstone

Showed up well when given the chance.

Can't understand why other SL clubs haven't wanted him.
London still needed to replace him as Rinaldi has gone, and they got Tommy Lee.
I assume Hudderfield are now short? or have they signed someone.

No disrespect to Fev but I thought he would be able to hack it at the top.
I think he will be a good signing for Fev. He will make others play better around him too.

He will not get in the side now Aitons back so may aswell sell him and free up space for new signings. Played well for us and wish him well.

If it was a choice between Aiton, Ellis and Wood, I would've kept Aiton and Ellis.

Press release due on the Rovers website imminently.

I hope it is Ellis, cracking player. I can't understand why Agar would let him go though.

We were promised 5 SL standard signings by our new sugar daddy, this is the best of them so far (if true)

Sell?




He is out of contract at the end of this season




IF we have signed him the there will be a big £0 coming Wakefields way.

Another good signing for us, see you all soon when we replace the pussycats

From what I can gather, we've beaten off competition from two SL clubs for his signature.

Suggests there maybe more to this like they have offered him a job part time as well and he's on a cushy number. Can't fault him as you have to look at the financial side of things first these days.

Yes sell. He signed a 3 year deal with us.

Two years left on his contract. That said I doubt you are paying for him. Bad move by us, good one for Fev.

Ellis joined us from London on a 3 year deal, so he still has 2 years still to run on it. Got to admit I didn't think the rumors were true but there must be more to this than meets the eye, maybe he's on a decent deal, too decent and they thought the money could be used better else where, who knows but it'll be interesting to find out.

We can't afford the luxury of keeping Aiton, Ellis and Wood, so something has to give. If the squad is improved overall then fair do's; good luck to him and to Fev.

Disappointed and puzzled by this, but hopefully money will be well spent on forwards

Seems strange when the reserve (Wright) has also gone and apparently with Wildie going , where is the cover?

I don't understand this at all




Good luck Andy.

Not too fussed TBH hes been putting in a shift of about 30 mins a game since coming back from Fev, 30 good minutes yes but I am of the opinion we are strong enough in this dept, perhaps gives someone like Wildie another go at the first team whilst we strengthen other key areas such as prop.

Was getting 60k a year at wakey. For the majority of the season he got that playing for the reserves. Suppose ra sees wood as better value for money as the replacement hooker for aiton who will be first choice again. Good luck to him and good luck to fev, I'd have liked to have kept him but if it means we can strengthen the side in other areas then fair do's for me.

Sorry to see him go. Thought he was excellent for us this year.

Yes its a shame when somebody who is playing well has to leave but you only have x amount of money and to have so many players who can play hooker doesnt add up at the end of the day...

o'well time to move on, good luck to the lad, now who we bringing in a part from Lyne

Like to see Wildie get a go been getting more expierence, and wood and aiton perhaps more dynamic duo than ellis and wood.
Got to remember we signed ellis just after got licence so we may have had to pay top dollar to get him from going to another club.
Best of luck but with Aiton, Wildie, Wood im more than comfortable with our options in this posistion.

I'd like to see Wildie back as impact hooker after another year under his belt.
