Was he speaking, English, French or that other language players sometimes use. You know the one - "I'll tell you the first thing that pops into my head that may or may not be true if you will stop stalking me".

Find it very hard to believe that he'd tell you his future plans knowing your first port of call will be to spread them all over a forum - he's either bulling you (no pun intended) or he needs to select his friend more carefully - what do you say on that Boyd?

I remember Aaron Murphy looking me in the eye and saying he was deffo staying at Wakey.
He signed for Hudds a fortnight later.

David Solomona did the same with me and I was his sponsor then signed for Bradford. I hold no grudges over this as its a short playing career and players have to do what's best for them and their families.

Just don't believe what they tell you as they will only tell you either what they want you to know or what they think you want to hear.

Elima will go where he gets the best offer, and why not.

Was he 'ing at you at the time ?

Nope, deadly serious.

Little git.

I don't see this as any different to how we would be with our own jobs.

If you were planning on moving jobs, you wouldn't tell your colleagues until it was all official. You certainly wouldn't tell someone you didn't know.
And no matter how much you enjoyed where you work, if an offer came up that was better for you, you'd consider it at least. Loyalty goes so far but not more important than your own wellbeing and happiness of your family.

Agreed, but that's not what we were on about

Asking a player what their plans are is basically asking them to compromise themselves and risk disciplinary action; you shouldn't ask at all but if you do, don't expect a serious answer and/or don't immediately report the conversation on a message board as gospel truth, for fear of being Gronked.

Back to Ollie - great player, but not one we should bust a gut to sign.

Anyone heard the Rangi Chase rumour, got told this morning he was signing for us.

How gullible are some

Right I'll start one while I'm on holiday in Portugal

Spoke to a Portuguese bar owner last night during the semi. He had Sam tomkins in the bar last week and he's definitely leaving Wigan and has signed a 7 year contract for trinity whilst also fitting some windows part time as per his sky super league supermen contract

WExp_Mark: #Wakefield Wildcats boss Richard Agar confirms he has "made enquiries on [signing] 2 or 3 players" from #Bradford Bulls. #rugbyleague
