What happened to the Huddersfield player we were rumored to have signed?

It was Sebastine Ikahihifo. I’d be happier going with the young lads from Warrington than a 33 year old that will want good money.

He's going back home , his kids played at Elland and said their goodbyes recently.

We've already been stung with expensive ex SL players who have disappointed. Let's avoid in future, eh?

Probably a shadow of that now and you have to wonder why Bradford got cold feet on signing him.Should have signed him and a couple like him 3 years ago...

Yes we saw similar video footage of how brilliant Greg Eden was but lhe looked a completely different player with us.

just seen today that Warrington have announced they'll be continuing their DR partnership with Widnes next season - not sure where that leaves Fax. On another point I know it's been mentioned on here before, but Crookes and Tibbs featuring on photos of pre season training - are they signed on or not?

Re: Squad 2025 : Wed Nov 20, 2024 12:23 pm  

Can only imagine they are signed on but are being allowed to move on if a suitable offer arises.I'd like to think Eastmond has 2 pacy,blockbusting centres lined up that he'd prefer to bring in...

We might go dr with Bradford and get keyes back , lol

I am disappointed that Seb isn't joining us i think he would of gone well for us providing what we have been missing up front. I would guess that we will still be dr with Leeds but getting some loans in from Warrington, which if we don't sign anymore players would be very risky because as soon as Leeds or Warrington pick up injuries they will just recall there players leaving us in a right mess. And with Crooks and Tibbs not getting any social media announcements of new deals i would think that Kyle would of told them they can leave even if they are under contract for next year.
