A myth perpetuated by wakey fans who don’t like this signing to make them feel better about it I suspect.

Think you may find Rankin goes later in the season when injuries kick in around easter, unless we keep him due to the fact. He's not a bad player, just not worth the money he's on in Woolfords opinion. Same goes for Seb

Equally Woolford is making it be known he’s not happy with expensive mediocrity. Good on him.
Seb was brilliant in 2017, dream team yadda yadda ....then he signed a long term deal and suddenly in 2018 his form dipped
Perhaps it will inspire them to improve next year and play their best to prove a point!

That's obviously what your coach will want it will be interesting to see how it goes

It's hard to believe he doesn't want Ikahihifo - I don't know what wage he's on but I also don't know where he's going to find a Prop of at least the same quality at this stage. He's 27, in his prime and already at your club. From the outside looking in it's a strange one for me.

must one some other players in that he has his eye on and needs salary cap room

If the rumours are correct you're probably right, would be interesting to know who he's got his eye on as a replacement.

The story i've had on ikahifo is that Germ wasn't impressed with his fitness levels and told him if he wanted to stay with him and the club he needed to sort it out, he hasn't done enough so germ stood his ground and told him he was offering him around as he didn't do as asked, it seems a deal can't be done so for now he's staying but unless he bucks up he won't be playing much.

Dunno how much truth there is in it though as i can't say i ever really noticed any fitness problems but i guess that's why the coaches know best.

Strong rumours coming out of Cas today that your getting wardle and we’re getting ikahifo. Anyone heard the same ?
