Transfer chatter for 2025 - New Dec 1st tamper date : Sun Dec 01, 2024 3:54 am  

The anti tampering deadline changed to Dec 1st 2024
for the 2025 season !!

Matches the Aussie deadline and in all reality it
allows the negotiations that took place ‘in secret’
to become more common knowledge.

However - feels weird finding out that for example

Lewis Martin has just signed for Leeds for 2025

I’d like 3 of our forwards to be joining other sides
in 2025c that’s for sure.

So we have cap space and 2024 is still with us so
I’ll leave that to Shopping list 24

2025 - do we have a Xmas Present from
Father Thirkill for 2025 Marquee type ????

Surely Abdull, Rapana and Asiata will all be our marquees again as they're all contracted?

Tarkers - change the title to 2026, the change is for that season. From today clubs can approach players out of contract at the end of 2025 for the following season.

We'll probably have the 1 quota spot next year, I imagine Cartwright will want to use recruiting oversees, looking at super league there's not a great deal available next year, I hope we're looking at the following:

Josh Simm
George Lawler
Sam Halsall
Morgan Gannon
James McDonnall
Mikolaj Oledjski
Joe Batchelor
Toby King
Connor Wrench
Liam Byrne
Matt Whitley

I've left out the likes of Lees, Knowles, Farrell etc... as the likelihood of them leaving St's and Wigan will be near enough nil, but it looks like a lot of clubs will be fishing in a very small pond domestically next season, shows the importance of giving your youth a chance.

What we need is a couple of young players from the next batch ready to play SL, if say Moy and Westerman are ready to play SL regularly in 2026, that's our backs pretty much sorted.

If we can add Sutton for this year and bring in some like Byrne and Batchelor. The likes of Charles, Kirby, Wainhouse getting stronger and ready to play 10 plus games a season.

I think would continue to improve amd aim for the top 6.
