Luke Gale
Re: Luke Gale
Can’t believe folks actually can make themselves believe Jackson Hastings would jump ship at this stage.
Then again who am I to say. It’s easy to get excited ha ha
We need to get the cheque book out
Thing is Luke’s wages will be covered by insurance and him taken off the salary cap so that’s at least 100k to spend on the cap.
There’ll definitely be an up and coming Aussie half back we’ll uncover. Meanwhile , and no I’m not joking, would rangi be intertested or capable?
Other than that, brad Davis! Lol
There’ll definitely be a half back on their way before long.

Good point. Evalds instead of Sau then and switch Peanut to centre.nottinghamtiger wrote:We only have one place on the non-fed quota though, so we can’t have both.The Firm wrote:This would be the perfect scenario, signing him would be the difference of making the top 3 or 4 and going with what we have and probably looking at around 7th. Gales goalkicking and drop goals alone is probably worth 5/6 points a season and inreckon that mid-table will be congested. Four places in the table is worth 100k in prize money alone, thats without better attendances coming from better performances and maybe a run at the cup.nottinghamtiger wrote:Jackson Hastings.tigerfeat wrote:if you forget everything else just on gales goal kicking alone its going to be a massive loss to us,this point few weeks to go to kick off cant see a lot of options out there who we could bring in to replace him
He just seems to make sense to everyone.
Cas - we need a half who can kick. But we only need him for a year until Gale is back.
Hastings - he’s been clear that he only wants to stay in England for a year, so that arrangement suits him.
Salford - in danger of entering administration. If selling one player (who they only have contracted for a year) avoids this (and the points deduction that will make them relegation favourites) then it makes sense for them to sell.
Obviously, I don’t know the club’s finances. But with Hastings only having a year’s contract at Salford and the fact they are staring down the barrel of administration, they won’t be able to command a massive fee. Likewise, we’re only guessing where we are with the salary cap, but if Gale doesn’t play all season he won’t count anyway.
Can we afford to pay a transfer fee and a salary to someone to cover for an injured player? Who knows. Can we afford not to though?
We should dangle the carrot to Salford at the very least. In fact 100K & Wardle for Hastings & Sau would be very nice indeed.

Re: Luke Gale
If Salford have the choice of selling him or going into administration, they’ll be encouraging him to leave. Even without him they are far better than London and should survive in SL. Go into administration and cop a points deduction and everything changes, they’ll be favourites for the drop I’d imagine. They won’t take that risk for one player who has already said he’s going home in 2020 whatever happens.Mysterio wrote:Can’t believe folks actually can make themselves believe Jackson Hastings would jump ship at this stage.

Rangi got a full 2 year ban, so he can’t play again until the end of July. I think he blew his last chance at Cas though.

Re: Luke Gale
Or maybe, we give Ashton a go, the lads absolutely chomping at the bit to play for us. Danny Richardson didn't do too badly last season when thrown in.

Re: Luke Gale
Confirmation of Luke Gale's injury. Will have surgery this week.
Best case 6 months. Worst case a year.

Re: Luke Gale
So 6 months takes him to July, that's without any kind of training what so ever. Permitting that he fully recovers and is allowed back training, he's have to have at least 3 months under his belt after half a year off. That takes him to October, there's just no way he can be match fit this year.

Re: Luke Gale
Sky sports noting we are looking for salary cap dispension to sign a replacement.....
Re: Luke Gale
Jon Wells mentioned in his interview that if they decide to get a replacement then they would approach the RFL for dispensation for Gales salary. But he did stress that that this wasn't the case yet.Fryston Tiger wrote:Sky sports noting we are looking for salary cap dispension to sign a replacement.....

Watch this space I guess. I'd still like us to see if our current halves at the Club can fill the void left by Galey's injury.The Fox wrote:Jon Wells mentioned in his interview that if they decide to get a replacement then they would approach the RFL for dispensation for Gales salary.

Re: Luke Gale
In this scenario Hastings would be a dream fit and would have the added advantage of helping both clubs. Will keep an eye on the salary cap dispensation with interest.tigerfeat wrote:hastings i rate highly it would be great if we were thinking along those lines ...

Re: Luke Gale
Whilst we may apply for dispensation on the salary cap it doesn't mean we have to spend it on another half back,I guess it all depends on who steps up and how they perform its very much in the hands of the back up halves to show we don't need a replacement.
Re: Luke Gale
I think it depends how the club want to play it we could give young players a chance not really challange regroup for 2020 or make a couple of good signings one would definitely need to be a good half back to partner trueman and with the forwards we have have every chance of glory this seasonFryston Tiger wrote:Watch this space I guess.

Re: Luke Gale
IMO they have had long enough to prove they are super league quality and unfortunately they have not.we need a replacement for gale that can step up to the mark and lead the team round the park,but where we would get one from Is anyone’s guess but I don’t think the answer will be any of them three .Fryston Tiger wrote:Watch this space I guess.

Re: Luke Gale
Mc shane is more than capable of stepping into Gales shoes, no need to get another player in. Milner to 9 and roberts on bench as interchange hooker :dance:

With going down to 8 interchanges can we really be wasting 2 on switching the hookers round?westerbeast wrote:Mc shane is more than capable of stepping into Gales shoes, no need to get another player in. Milner to 9 and roberts on bench as interchange hooker :dance:

Thanks. I guess my cards in the post. Yeah but they wouldn’t listen like you
You wont. We all know the backs are the weakest we have had for years and short on numbers. God only knows why DP and the rest of them cant see it.
Maybe the plan is the give all the 2nd rowers a game somewhere when all the injuries kick in.
We do like to play 1 man rugby when the going gets tough so maybe you have the plan right there!!
