players at bulls : Wed Jul 11, 2012 12:23 pm  
who would be your top 6 players to keep at the bulls if you had a choice.

1. Bateman
2 Whitehead
3 L estrange
4 manuokafoa
5 Kopczac
6 Lulia

I would have put burgess in but i reckon he will go to oz but would love to keep him.

Why only 6? I would keep all the above but going on recent form I would also like to keep Gale and Kearny. I'd also say Elima but if the rumours are correct he's on his way back to France next season.

I'd want to keep all our home grown players and Kearney, Lulia and Gale at the very least.

That's a best case scenario. The reality could be a very different matter.

Potter isn't returning and there are 5 players that are going - announcements going to be made once all this settles. FWIW, I don't know who the 5 are, but I do know its 5 (at the mo)

Itsa shame that 3 of the 6 are from overseas. Not the way you need to build imho.

Re: players at bulls : Wed Jul 11, 2012 3:09 pm  
Would it be a bit disrespectful for people to suggest which 5 players they wouldnt mind losing??

As mentioned in previous posts, rumours suggest Burgess to oz and Elima to France but its been suggested crookes is off to Hull too. That would leave 2 others. I suppose they would be high paid players that maybe shouldn't be commanding such a high wage?

I expect this is what Noble has been discussing with prospective buyers.

Ross H just tweeted this quote form BG

"There's an opportunity to reshape the squad with 17 players out of contract at the end of the year."

Good - it needs a sort out. If losing particular fringe / injured / not up to it players means we keep the likes of JB, EW etc then I'm not gonna argue for one minute.

Be interesting to see who Nobby chooses to stay and let go though.

I think its nailed on that Elima, Burgess and Crookes will definitely be leaving (or, more likely, have already fixed up to leave)

Presumably Wakefield would take Sykes off our hands?

Then there's any number of OOC people that could readily be shown the door - the likes of Sibbit, Pryce, Walker etc

So losing 5 players looks to be on the low side to me

Re: players at bulls : Wed Jul 11, 2012 7:10 pm  
I think it means that there will be 5 players going by redundancy now.
Might be cutting some on longer contracts and on high wages. Scruton (2014), Purtell (2014) maybe to clear the decks.
Probably Sykes (2013)
and maybe a couple who are 2012 but dont figure in selection.

There is no reason to ditch top players who will be OOC 2012 anyway. Burgess, Elima etc.to play the season out

Re: players at bulls : Wed Jul 11, 2012 7:16 pm  
Wouldn't it make more sense to pay off players OOC at the end of the year? Anyone contracted out to 2014 would surely be due more money that then counts on our salary cap for those years should we survive.
