The exit door is swinging open very firmly at Gilbert Brutus...
Whitehead, Garcia and Cardace have been joined on the confirmed departure list by Ian Henderson (Syndey Roosters) and Ben Pomeroy.
Pomeroy is rumoured to be staying in Superleague.
Michael Oldfield is another possibly on his way out and with Tony Gigot and Krisnan Inu only on short term deals, times are looking tough for the Dracs into next season.
Cardace granted immediate release to return to Lézignan before the start of pre-season. Jordan Sigsimeau recalled from loan at Whitehaven to cover - a potential for number 98.
