Paul Wellens - 2013 : Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:11 pm  

There is speculation on various threads about Wello's future, we might as well discuss it in the one thread.

Questions are:

Is Wello still going to be with the club next year, in a playing capacity?

How long of a contract will he be on?

What position will he be playing in?

Re: Paul Wellens - 2013 : Mon Jul 30, 2012 2:13 pm  

Yes.

One year.

Full back.

Correct on all 3 counts. He still looks to have another year in him on yesterday's form and doesn't count for a big chunk of salary cap.

He's captain next year according to my season ticket renewal letter so he'll be here for at least one more year!

Re: Paul Wellens - 2013 : Mon Jul 30, 2012 3:07 pm  

Defo here

1yr rolling deal

Fullback

Hodgson coming into saints for one year.

And which one of Puletua, Soliola, Perry, Hohaia and Laffranchi will Hodgson be replacing on the 'non-federation trained' quota?

Regardless of Saddened's constant whining about Wellens, backed up by a couple more mindless gimps, Wellens has had a good year this year, and certainly deserving of a new contract. I guess a rolling contract means that there is no set end date to it, as such?

Wello's had a good year I suppose he had a good game against Huddersfield as well?

You are right though, I've said it all about Wello. Another season will just see him further erode his legacy and further enhance his position as a joke figure for opposition supporters. We'll see another year of flapping arms at referees, him arriving late or not at all to bombs, grubbers, positional kicks, breaks and tries being scored. We'll see him being stood up or embarassingly sat down by lumbering props or pacy backs and we'll continue to see him be an absolute black hole for attacking moves.

But hey ho, he's still the best fullback in Super League isn't he

Wellens be in a playing capacity at the club but not as first chioce Full Back

One Year.

I would have Wellens on the bench as a utility player. Full Back, Centre, Loose Forward

Roby to takeover as Skipper.
