Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 30, 2017 7:35 pm  
...tentative rumour, contact made with Salford regards Junior Sau, potential deal involving an un-named hooker. Whether this indicates Gelling is now leaving, or Bateman will take an offer in NRL so Gells moves to 2nd row, I am unsure. However, talks regards his value to Salford and potential player exchange are on-going.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Mon Oct 30, 2017 8:53 pm  
So the solid rumours so far are:
- Gelling to NZ Warriors
- Michael Monaghan to be a coach
- FPN is either staying or going but probably staying

When are squad numbers announced?

'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Shaun Wane's post-Grand Final speech. 5th October 2013.

Sale are about to sign Marland Yard English international winger, with Solomona in one side and Yarde on the other you would assume Josh would be on an outer.

Interesting to see where he would end up, I’d assume back in League.

The Mole tweeted this last night so assume there's some truth in this as he's usually on the button with rumours:

Usually mid-December (leaving less than two weeks for anyone buying shirts as Christmas gifts :roll: ), but last year they got them out early in mid November. I really wouldn't put any stock in any rumour involving Gelling leaving. The same poster has previously said he has been sacked, and that he has been sold to Widnes. The other two sound more realistic at least (Monaghan as assistant coach and FPN staying).

Gelling to New Zealand is realistic, ignore the one above who like to try and belittle others, the rumour has come from a guy that knows several players from several clubs and rarely gets it wrong, believe it or not i don't care, i'm happy hearing rumours from him on the few occasions the shares.

NRL website claiming Pettybourne is coming back to England. A deal with Wigan is ‘in the pipeline, but by no means finalised’.

Always thought he was pretty average. Although if we can swap him for FPN he’d be cheaper, younger and better. But still not great.

Unofficially the most boring poster on Cherry and White.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Wed Nov 01, 2017 7:29 am  
Perrybourne would be an awful signing especially when you consider who is available and who has been so far.

He was a total non event first time round, why we would want him back is beyond me.

Really really can’t see that happening.

Really can't see Pettybourne coming back to Super League, he is Championship standard at best, even then I doubt he would get in Leigh's 17. He gets stopped by the first tackler every single time. No comparison with FPN I'm afraid, who I would much rather have. Pettybourne really is an example of a useless Aussie stopping the progress of one of our own.

Sounds like lazy journalism, really can't see that happening. Not least because he seemed to hate it here, and correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't he being left out by Wane towards the end anyway?
