| could it be in the starts that we now get sam Burgess.
Heavily linked with Leeds. Cannot fit him under slary cap at the Rabbitohs.
Need somewhere for him to play until next season.
Only obstacle was he has just get married and would not want his new wife around Ferres who has now gone.
Save £150 k on the salary cap make Burgess our marquee signing.
Sam gets his wife pregnant. 9 months later season ends back to OZ and nana Burgess looks after the newborn.
I tell ya i feel it in my water

| He is undoubtedly a class player...but life goes on....and we managed without him last season.
Would imagine Ken might wait until season starts before spending the money , when people in teams start seeing the pecking order. We won't panic buy.
Will miss his toughness and probably won't help our soft pack reputation/ no enforcers etc. Not sure if rapira or hincliffe add that.
Serious question - but assuming no clause in the contract he would not face us? It could end up being a rather nasty encounter that both clubs would like to avoid.

| run leroy its a transfer not a loan . as replacement now is they time its a short season before you know it its top 8 play off time. any one coming from nrl would need work permeates ect which takes time, anyone who is any good over here are already signed up i would look at getting furgerson back from Bradford if fit .getting rid of fairbank also looks like a mistake

2 tries and 2 assists and 1 red in 2015? I doubt you'd find anyone who wouldnt be unhappy to see him go but maybe his recent international form is fresh in the mind. He's played a small amount of games recently for us so as a result we won't miss what we haven't had much of.
Hinchcliffe is going to be massive for us if you've seen anything of him last season, hopefully Rapira will be playing his part too, as good as ferres was he's gone on account of his own choices, life goes on.

Sure you will miss ferres but both rapira and hinchcliffe are tough players.

| Ever so slightly off topic but kinda relevant, Huby, heard he's out for 8 weeks for a hand injury...not causing poop as my club have faced similar shenanigans in the last 6 months...

Gary Hypocrite Hetherington changed his tune then?Mr Hetherington changed his tune it seems
"We'd be appalled if his application was granted because it would damage the integrity and profile of Super League," after trying to block Catalans signing Todd Carney
He also had the following to say after trying to block Catalans signing Gregg Bird
"It is disappointing that a club should want to sign him," Hetherington said at the time.
"Our competition cannot become a dumping ground for other people's problems."

Mind you Leeds fans kept tellong me Ferres was e when at the Giants, amazing what a change of shirt colour can do

What are you whinging for? You've got rid of a problem in the dressing room and have some nice cash to show for it. Ferres must be glad he has a realistic chance to win something now. (Yes, we all know you won the hubcap a few years ago....)

| Not whingeing just stating facts as much as it hurts. Hubcap was load of e as well till Leeds win it now its part of a treble. Laughable how things change very quickly, depending on club involved.Aiiii Ferres will be delighted he can now win sommert.
