Abit of doom and gloom, not looking good but never say never until the club tell us.

Gutted for him but think we have really good cover and you can see why Bateman was brought in, clever move.

Up the wire!

Oh how the mighty have fallen. Some over on Redvee would be happy to take Chris Hill on a 12 month contract at 37 years of age.

Warrington Wolves squad contract expiry dates
November 2024

Joe Philbin, Joe Bullock, Tom Whitehead, Sam Kasiano, Gil Dudson, Stefan Ratchford, Matt Dufty, Josh Drinkwater, Leon Hayes (OP), Josh Lynch (OP), Jake Thewlis (OP), Rodrick Tai (OP), Wesley Bruines (OP), Matty Russell, Adam Holroyd, Luke Thomas

So of that list as far as I know we still don't know about Whitehead, Lynch, Thewlis (Jake), or Bruines?

Guessing we will get a press release this week confirming what's happening with them ahead of the traditional end of last game farewell for Nicholson and Drinkwater (though we haven't had official confirmation on Drinkwater yet)?

Edit: Max Wood missing off that list, but think someone mentioned he's signed up for 2025?

Canberra have ended their interest in Walker due to us asking for a 'ridiculous' transfer fee.

He's young enough to wait two years and then try the NRL. Hopefully we'll have another homegrown replacement coming through the ranks by then, in Hartill.

Probably wouldn’t have had official notice about Nicholson either if it was for SB dropping a bollox.

Drinkwater leaving finally announced.

In excess of £200k apparently. https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/ru ... s-29960900 As long as Walker is happy to stay is the key thing here, no point having a player with us who doesn’t want to be here. I’m assuming we’ve been able to play hardball on price as Walker is happy to stay, presumably to move for less next year or at the end of his deal. We don’t need the cash, would rather keep the player if the club feels he is part of the plans - which he obviously is.

George King off to Huddersfield apparently, would take him over Bullock in a heartbeat.
i don't think we're even looking at a prop for next year though, as even if Bullock does move on, we have Vaughan, Harrison, Yates, Musgrove, philbin, Wood, Crowther, Okoro and Luke Thomas will be back next year.

Re: Recruitment rumours and links : Thu Sep 19, 2024 8:25 am  

Good stance from the Club. Effectively telling Danny we won’t stand in your way if we get a decent offer, while telling the NRL don’t take us for mugs.
Probably we will start looking at replacements for next year as they will come knocking again with a year less on his contract.
