Hadley is bang average and one of the reasons we went from being a top side to an average one when he came back from Wakey

Let him go and see if Lane can progress or a younger player

Despite me not being a fan of Radford i actually think some quality recruitement is going on in the background and Hadley is not of that quality

Yes but everyone knows he’s a second row so no room for Hadley.

If everyone knows he is a second row then why is he still playing at centre?
Griffin will never be a top centre in Super league

Disappointed - all the talent but questionable application - will be his 6th club stint - Cas, Hull, Wire, Toronto, Hull, Cas (or Leeds).

I don't mind who we lose so long as we improve the quality of the squad next year.

Has there been a list published of the players we haven't offered deals to? or does the lack of one mean everyone has been offered a deal?

I'd be amazed if rovers were looking at litten as their 1st choice hooker next season. Plenty of promise but not sure he's up to SL week in, week out. I can see them going for cunningham if he's OOC to be 1st choice with litten as back up

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Mon May 13, 2019 9:25 pm  

Faraimo and Litten have been offered fresh deals so far

Wasn't there a list of all players who have';t been offered deals in league express today?

As stated earlier, thinks it’s more important who we bring in than who we may potentially lose.
We’ve kept everyone we’d hate to lose, and if we’re going to bring a higher standard of player in we’re going to lose a few.
In our not too distant past we’ve picked up players big clubs have discarded, while they bring in someone who improves their team. Maybe that’s just what we’re doing now?
Smaller clubs will pick up some of our players by offering them far more than we are willing to.
I’ll judge us by the recruits, not the leavers. AP seems to be making the right noises so far.

We're likely to be losing ellis, washbrook (although he hasn't played anyway but is an option) mini and manu from the back row. Add in westerman and hadley and that's a lot of people to replace. Only savelio and lane already contracted so I'd guess the club were looking to keep westrman and hadley and add in 2 more.

If westerman and hadley go then the club have to find a couple of players who are as good or better which might be a challenge.
