Pettybourne Released : Fri Dec 19, 2014 9:50 pm  
With immediate effect, for personal reasons

Shame, never really reached his full potential with us.

I had high hopes for him in the coming season.
Hopefully whatever problems that he has can be resolved.

Re: Pettybourne Released : Fri Dec 19, 2014 9:59 pm  
Surprising news but it's not much of a blow going of this years performances (although I did expect better next year).

In the short term it may be a loss with Flower and Mossop out but long term he'd have been my 6th/7th choice prop after Flower, Mossop, Crosby, Clubb, Tautai and Patrick. I'd also like to see Sutton given more games and Greenwood given a chance.

One thing I would probably do now is keep Dudson at least until Flower and Mossop are back. No point leaving ourselves short and who knows, maybe the threat of leaving will give him the boot up the backside he needs.

Has Mossop gone to Florida for the pre season training?
I assume this means we have some room within the salary cap therefore, I hope we can utilise it to try and obtain another centre as I agree with NK that we should be able to cover this loss if we retain Dudson and he gets on with doing some hard graft rather looking for the big hit all of the time.

Mossop is in Florida. I seen a photo of him and McIlorum training separately to the others online somewhere.

If we retain Dudson I'd guess that may be Pettybournes money pretty much gone. I think the plan is (or maybe was) to release him to ease salary cap pressure and they may well have already accounted for that money being off the cap.

I don't think we need another centre tbh. Happy to give Gildart a shot and then use Bateman, J Tomkins and even one of the wingers as back up.

'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.

Re: Pettybourne Released : Fri Dec 19, 2014 11:14 pm  
Although Rads stated it all happened pretty quickly, could this have contributed to the reason Dudson hasn't moved on despite the 'he's finished at Wigan' rumours?

Why would that be a reason to release you from your contract ?

I'm speculating but maybe a family member has contracted a long term critical illness and he feels he needs to be closer to them?
