Shaw to Carnegie seems a bit odd seeing as they are going part time and vastly reducing their budget.As for Ratu,I think union is where he feels more comfortable so could be something in it

Potential RU poster boy, they will play the Armed Forces angle much better than the RFL, good luck to him, whichever path he takes.

I don't think it will be the end of the world if we Ratu goes, he has been a revelation and scored some unbelieavle trys, but he is still a bit raw and needs work on his game. We are well stocked at wingers and woud give us a bit of cap space to play with (I'd look for a young halfback from the championship) as a back up.

Can't blame him as there is a lot more money in RU, depends on the army situation.

If he goes, I'd have Swift and Fonua on the wings next season.

He is on contract for next season so if he does go we will get a decent fee
Dont think he will go but when his contract expires then he will

He'll count 50% on the cap next year, so if he leaves early his cap space won't buy a like for like replacement.

It would be great if we could keep Ratu the Exocet, he’s box office, and has lit up our average season at times, every time he gets the ball, with just a little bit of room, every one is up on their feet.

That would be a good option, hopefully having the full off season will see him improve his game even more, certainly has good competition for his wing spot next season.

Could only be Fonua.

If there is two.
