I'm pretty sure in recent times that Saints have announced signings at this time of the year for the following season.

I think sia, lance, TP and perry was all announced around the Easter period.

No rumours or signings and no announcemt as yet so maybe I'm right when I've said we will go with exact same squad for 2013.

according to the contracts thread, Wello, Meli, Flanders and Cloughy are off contract.
I'd give Wello another year to fully train up his replacement, and Cloughy because he makes good yards but wont cost much.
Meli is a tough decision. He's off quota and still does a job, are Wheeler or Makinson ready to take his place permanently?
Flanders is going anyway.

At the start of the season it was stated we had cap room if the right player came along, so we have that, a reduction in wello's wage, Flanders gone, a reduction or release for Meli.

Have we given away all that extra cash on new contracts for kids??? I'd be very disapointed if so because non of them are Sam Tomkins

Dunno if this is right http://www.zerotackle.com.au/rugby-leag ... ract-2012/ Off contract NRL players, I have a feeling it's for last season and it's not been updated but it is all I could find.

When? I take it the rumours about him wanting to return after his beating aren't true?

Some people have talked about Brown bringing players from Hudds with him. If he does, they won't be anounced till the end of the season, announcing that now would cause serious probs amongst the Hudds speccies, knowing that their coach was being a snake in the grass. Was different when Saints announced that Hargreaves wasn't staying, and Pansy signed him for the Bulls, I would imagine any player that Saints want from Hudds will be quite an arm wrestle.

Sia is considering the clubs first offer but I think he'll sign.
