hearing that St Helens have signed Laffranchi
Bluing with Searle about his offer? Anybody know about this?
Four reasons to escape to Queensland: Sun, Surf, Sand & the Titans.
Talks of a mid season walk out, probably all bull **** though.
You serious? Mid season walk out would be highly unprofessional and unprecidented.
PUT EM TO THE SWORD! SHOW SOME STEEL!

WALK TALK AT TITANS
WE KEEP hearing Anthony Laffranchi is a cranky Titan and it relates to the club throwing big dollars at rival players in his position. There has even been talk of a mid-season walk-out. It’s one to keep an eye on.
SMH

Anthony Laffranchi poised to sign with St Helens as Titans close in on Nate Myles's signature
By Matt Marshall The Courier-Mail May 02, 2011 11:47AM
Ex-Test forward Anthony Laffranchi is poised to sign a lucrative English deal with St Helens as the Titans close in on the prized signature of Maroons Origin star Nate Myles.
Laffranchi, closing in on a return from an ankle injury, is expected to announce as early as this week that he will end his 11-year NRL career at season's end to link with the British Super League giants.
And Gold Coast, who have already snared Kangaroos Test rookie and Bulldogs star Jamal Idris on a long-term deal, are close to securing another major coup by poaching Myles from the Roosters in Laffranchi's place.
Myles, 25, was last night omitted from the Australian team to play the Kiwis at Skilled Park on Friday night.
The 2010 Four Nations squad member is set to face a further blow today ahead of a likely dangerous tackle charge. Myles was placed on report for a lifting tackle on fellow Test casualty Greg Bird in the Coast's 24-13 win on Saturday night.
While reports have suggested a disgruntled Laffranchi will walk out on the Titans mid-year, upset at the amount offered to him by his club while they instead go hard at Myles, he is expected to play out the remainder of the season at Robina.
Myles, a key figure in Queensland's historic Origin five-peat, is expected to exit the Roosters a year early and form a lethal backrow partnership with Bird on the Sunshine Strip in 2012. Bird is happily settled and is midway through a four-year deal at the Gold Coast.

Say it aren't so!

Good news for Laff, he would be getting a fair few dollars.
So that "deal" mentioned is for next year? Is that right?
A much better player than Harro and Mini and even myles - he has been poorly used here as a up the middle battering ram the last 2 years to cover the poor work rate of our props (especially when Bull was out) rather than a traditional second row.
Look at his stats outworks everyone as well as scoring tries and producing the most offloads - will be sorely missed although we have already missed out his best due to Carty's game plans
