Obviously he's not quite the guy we thought he was whilst in Admin then. Not RW&B through and through!

Andy Raleigh is a tough as nails and will be a superb backrower for us should he stay injury free.

Welcome aboard boys.

With regards Aaron Murphy time will tell how good he is! The word 'potential' doesn't mean he will definately progress like everyone suggests.

The majority of us want you to do one, so it looks like disappointment all round.

Each and every time you post you have this wonderful knack of outdoing yourself.

Murphy has gone get over it, no player is ever going to tell supporters he is leaving. As the press release says he could have gone at the beginning of the year during the time when the administrators were running the club, but he decided to stay and help his team mates and then go at the end of the season. He was offered a new contract and probably what the club thought was a fair amount. Huddersfield offered more and anyone with an ounce of sense (something you clearly lack) is going to take the better offer especially when they are only able to earn that kind of money for a limited time as a professional Rugby League Player.

Murphy is a good player but he is gone now and time will tell whether he can fulfil his potential.

Even God doesn't believe you.

A bit unfair - he's a young lad facing a short career; he can hardly be blamed for acting in his own best interests.

The real ambition should be that our club becomes sufficiently attractive and able to compete in the market place, such that we become a viable option in terms of the ability to attract and retain quality players; not that players agree to stay here on a reduced deal, out of a sense of loyalty. That's never going to happen and if you wish for it, you'll be persistently disappointed.

Good luck Smurph - time to move on.

2 important points to remember the man that helped bring him through to first team level Pete Riding is now at the Giants and so is his younger brother. I would expect that both would be a draw.

Good bit of business for mine. Wakefield have got a lad who will run himself to water and go about his business quietly but very effectively in Raleigh. He gets some stick for not being flashy, but I played with him for a number of years in rep teams and whenever you need a runner and other forwards go missing Raleigh will be there willing to take it up, time and time again. Great engine on him.

Kirmond good solid strike backrow, nice bit of business for Trinity given the circumstances.

Forgot, we should do an 11 min video on how kirmond and raliegh look forward to playing for Wakey

I suppose if either of them were regarded as one of the best players in SL and had just won MoS, perhaps we would?

I agree that the Cas PR machine backfired a bit on that one, but can you imagine if Broughy were still here and had just signed a long deal - we'd be shouting from the rooftops.

To be honest, I'd rather have ambitious players than loyal ones who profess their 'love' for the club. Though the ambitious ones may not stay for 10 years with the club at the level it currently is, you know they'll be trying all the time to show their abilities off. I'd rather have a year of two watching an Ellis or a Brough, than 10 years of Henderson.

Its a bloody awful deal Kirkmond the knock on penelty machine missed tackle kid I am not happy if anybody is ask yourself this WHY ARE HUDDERSFIELD LETTING HIM GO
Whatever next Obst

There's no loyalty in RL, money talks. Hudds offering a better contract with better chance of international honours. It's a no brainer for any player.

I can't argue with that, it's just whilst in admin Murphy got elevated to some God like status by some posters on here for not doing a runner at the first opportunity. Wakefield doesn't obviously mean as much to him as was made out.

I'm looking forward to seeing Kirmond and Raleigh. I think our team is looking interesting for next season!

True, hugs and kisses don't win you trophys!

just getting fed up with shudds nicking players with the thing that have happened at barrow its about time the rl looked at other clubs abit closer to us if the car is to be believed a player as had running around in

At last someone with a brain .... Thank YOU

Can't help but notice the posting styles, pretty sure they're not the same person though.

Edited for accuracy.

When do we sell Walshaw and any other talent we have.

Now murphy has gone, wait for the announcement that he has been drafted into the england squad......

it will be alright for mcnamara to pick him now he is at another club

I hope this is a bit of taking.

Murphy wanted to go. We got the best deal possible. We have a young Walshaw who will relish some gametime this year.

The time they want to leave and go play for some other team.
