Ryan Hampshire has indicated his intentions to leave with a post from his twitter account.
Seems he’s been in some very dark places this last 12 months - the last month or so being the worst for him.

Hope he is mentally ok.

No Goodwin, no Hampshire - who’s next?

I wonder which championship club comes in for him? TW? TO? LB?

Just been told this lot already gone ...

Foster
Drinkwater.
Hock.
Fleming.
Hampshire.
Stewart.
Thompson.
Green.
Crooks.
Tickle.
Hood.
Goodwin
Mortimer

All left club

Go on then, who's towd thi?

Apparently drinkys staying worst luck ... maria an pelisier in talks with Toulouse too

So Drinky's already gone, then he's staying, C'mon Gene you can do better than that owd lad.

Of the names you quote there Gene, three aren't our players to leave us:- Fleming, (St Helens) Crooks (Castleford) and Goodwin (Souths) I wonder how many SL clubs would be in for some of the names you have quoted?

Alan, He's full of $h!t.

Non id imagine as they are over the hill ..lets wait and see whos full of shall we ya pair of whoppers

Technically, at the moment they have all gone. Unless contracts were in place and signed after yesterdays game. This happened to us last year and fortunately nearly all the players who the club wanted to keep stayed. Hope yours do the same as it does not seem right to add insult to injury and circle like vultures. Keep the players who want to stay and build on it with the right kind of player and I am sure you will be in the mix next year. Who knows what the RFL /SL decide on the league format in the future but I am confident expansion will be on the horizon.

As an aside how can it be right that you can have a promotion/relegation system when not once has the best and worst teams from their respective divisions swapped places? Stinks in my opinion, thought that last year and nothing has changed my mind.

Amen to that!

But what about the promise of drama, more exposure for the game, the extra support and additional revenue from fans and sponsors -- for an 8 week period. The highs, the lows, the grown men crying while being interviewed live on TV...

Probably best to go with your idea, scrap the 8's and have a rethink.
