Any one know if there’s any legs in the Woolford rumour?

Levi linked with Leeds, I’d be shocked if both left the raiders.

Levi would be a class signing to partner Houghton as he was a revelation last time. Risk since he only managed 12 months last time round.

Don’t know much in woolford, who’s the better player?

Different styles of 9. Wooldford is more a Houghton style I'd say, big engine and gets through a load of work.

Agree on Levi. Did he just play the homesick card because the Raiders came in for him though? He broke his jaw pretty early on so hasn't really had a run of games

Tuimavave looks finished as a centre and we have no back up to Sutcliffe and Scott.
Sure we know what the priorities are but if a young talented back becomes available due to relegation then we should be interested.

Tumiavave has been finished for years but people are far too sentimental. Shouldnt of been given a new contract. Wouldnt get anywhere near a top SL side

Not given up on Carlos yet, don't think he was been as bad as people are making out.

I'd try him in the backrow this week if Sutcliffe is back.

Heard from a good source. Houghton is retiring.

If he thinks it's the right decision then you have to respect hos decision and it will be great to see him bow out in good form.

You seen him walking his dog?

Sione also resigning with saints. Surely that leaves Matt Whitley in limbo. We may as well get him in the same flight as Davies and Mcmeeken. A man can dream

Guess that means the replacement 9 is sorted.

Glad he's playing well too!

Apparently Corey Norman is playing well for London.
Was surprised no one picked him up in Super League for this year.

Maybe his 8 match ban for sticking his finger up another players backside put clubs off

Think they are going to play Mata'utia as a middle next season
