Noble and Harris need to decide whether the Welsh lads are going to get enough game time and support up in Wrexham or make sure they play regular RL by sticking with the Scorpions down here. Kear is more of a FB than a winger. I think Lewis should be given a chance but he's done well in Championship 1 making team of the week , I think he is relased by the Crusaders for this reason.Gil Dudson made team of the season too.

yh but i think noble will sign them both back up and strengthen the side up more

no tony martin? plus meli is a winger miles better than at centre and michael witt would deffo start with sammut and i dont think they have played together yet have they and i think they will be a mint partnership

Well Youngquest is now a Cas player and that's confirmed

Nick's a good player and I wish him well at Cas but if it was between Vinnie, Weller or Nick we've let the right one go.

If you are going to get Meli (and we haven't heard yet about who has re-signed for us) then I wouldn't put him on the wing. He is a liability anywhere near a loose ball whether it be up in the air or on the floor. He is playing better at centre than at wing for us at present although he needs his backside kicking on a regular basis to get him pulling his weight defensively. His was the only shiny white jersey by the end of our match against Warrington, that was played in the wet throughout.

And just as importantly as players, Nobby's making 'I could be staying' noises

5 players have been released by the Crusaders so far are

Luke Dyer is leaving for personal reasons
Nick Youngquest as gone to Cas (confirmed)
Tommy Lee is going to Wakefield
Rocky Trimarchi released
Jamie Thackray released

whys luke going? / off back to Aus?

I dont know mate he just told a few of our fans on his twitter page that he is leaving for personal reasons

Gutted

That's bad news - Luke has been immense and especially yesterday. If the club had known about him leaving wonder if they would have released Nick Youngquest. Both on overseas quota? Or is Dyer classed as British if he is a Welsh international?

I've read this thread and if Dyer, Youngquest,Mills, Thackray, Trimarchi and Lee are the ones you are binning and you are signing Reardon I think you have made sensible decisions.

I think Witt, Sammut, Schifcofski and O'Hara are the key players to hold on to.

I would add mellars and hayraki to that list

i know that i was talkin about mellars and hauraki

i see ben flower and lewis mills have been released aswell very strange seen as tho there 1 of the better welsh players

Reardon is 100% a Crusaders player next year.

mark calderwood and ewan dowes would be good signings for the crusaders, they look as tho they will be going from us as they aint contracted for next season and its very unlikely that both will be given contracts? then theres a few other players who aint got a contract at the moment players such as karl pryce and cameron phelps who could make decent signings. if someone could put a list on for all the players and how long there contracted for that would be great, hopefully the majority of the team will be the core of the team next season with a few good signings to improve the squad.

Read today in the Wakefield Express that Matty Blaymire is heading you way, anybody heard anything about this down there?

blaymire would be a strange signing seen as though hes a fullback and with the impressive performances from schkoski or whatever you call him and the young up and coming elliot kear whos a great potentail.

Schifcofske is offski, as are a number of other key players.

Maybe we are signing him as a , If he can defend well and catch high bombs we'll make allowances for his lack of pace. Reardon on one wing and our fantastic new winger with pace to burn on the other. At least we hope he will if we ever find out who he is!

but woundt you have mellars and martin as centres?

Martin is a good player but he is very injury prone. Went off injured against Saints, finished KR game on one leg. Hamstring went again 20 minutes into Hudds play off game, couldn't continue second half.

Vinnie confirmed he signed at Crusaders on Twitter so only Weller to go. Your considerations not up to much are they Gassy?
