If true a very sad and disappointing end to his career at Warrington. Been a great servant.

Bit weird to do that unless we're looking to bring someone in Quickly this season?

Not really. He's only owed 3/4 payments.

He's had another op last week. Probably very unlikely to get back in the team before the end of the season.

Strange if true, as it is Ryan Atkins testimonial year.

I assume it's the type of operation that would normally take place at the end of the season however, if he didnt have a club he'd have to pay for it himself. So, maybe the club are are helping him out and making it easier for him to gain a contract next season.

I stand to be corrected but I think the norm is for the club to pay for any necessary surgery to a departing player at the end of their contract. A bit like getting the dents fixed on a lease car before it goes back.

It could be that we're paying for his surgery now and the rest of his contract.

Whatever the truth, I hope it's been on his terms. He's been an excellent servant.

So we seem to be shipping people out, is this prelude to another big signing or a few. Gelling is the only name consistently mentioned but like others have said Prop is priority.

Re: Rumours 2 : Wed Jul 24, 2019 4:43 pm  

I think it is with the amount of people we are shifting, making room for Burgess maybe? Supposedly tabled an offer for him even though we've said we're not interested.
