But Manly may be looking to invest their cap in the youngsters to try and keep hold of them.

I'm sure Manly can afford to invest in youth and retain their key players, and if i recall correct, Lyon was referred to as a key player when he was offered and signed his contract extension early last year.

Would love him here, though.

It is finished,hes not coming.

Salford skint and it's 1 in1 out basis, would test the resolve with an offer for jody , lynch is back on wolfie

hope your right mate,but i dont think it is.

it is

Also hearing an ex Brisbane broncos full back now playing Aussie rules could be on the radar

karmichael hunt?

If he became available Wests would be throwing money at him for next year.

Why would we want another full back?

Is McKinnon in doubt?

Is that rhyming slang

Why would Lyon and Hunt take a massive pay cut?

Washy

two years
















extension

Is that Agar trying to get his revenge before he leaves?

Washys main problem to me is his errors of which he makes far too many with the main one being laying on. If he can improve on this then as a squad player who can cover lots of positions if needed and if cheap then its not all bad resigning him.

Washbrook's entire attacking game consists of run, catch, dummy, step, tackled, play the ball.
if he's staying, I hope Gentle can teach him something new!

To play for the mighty Hull FC!!!!!!

Fans have complained that Agar couldn't develop players, this is supposed to be a strength in Gentle so maybe he sees enough in Washy to keep him?

In Gentle we trust



Washbrook has shown in his first full season and at other times that he could be a very good SL player, if given the right coaching and allowed to play in the backrow.

Lets be honest everyone fit he isn't getting a game, but he will be a low paid squad player if he stays, so i don't see the problem with this.

With our current squad he is getting a game if everyones fit.

If a prop and centre are our priorities then he might next season as well.

Not sure were.

Not in the backrow and even I would have a bench of Radford, O Carroll, Whiting and one hooker.

Just been reading the Gentle article's in HDM & he obviously sees Washy as a backrower - "There are some great back rowers in the side too with Joe Westerman and Danny Tickle, plus Danny Washbrook is there"

'Eager to strengthen his right side, a centre is a priority. A winger is also believed to be a target, leaving Will Sharp's long-term future at the club hanging in the balance.'

'He is confident the squad Richard Agar has built is one he can take to a top-four position next season. But there will be changes. Further additions will be made, with departures expected to pave the way for new faces.'

Sounds like we've still got a fair bit of recruitment to come.

Apparently according to certain reports and in the League Weekly yesterday.

Wouldn't be a bad thing if he decided not to come. He has suffered with injuries this year and if he is having 2nd thoughts it could be a blessing in disguise.
