Isn't Totori on a 1-year deal? Sure he'll get the boot?

I get the feeling that Smith will be let go (I don't agree with it cause he is a good player, but I understand that we should use our import slots on a certain kind of players).

I guess Sanchez becomes a bit redundant now with Carlos - unless Ricky wants to play him on the wing again - in which case I really hope Ricky becomes redundant himself!

Totori's 1 year extension has been activated (the suspicion is that it was a player option)


That cannot be true - why would you ever give a player an option to extend his contract?  There is zero upside for the club


This is great to hear though - has the potential to be a quality signing.  He's not an amazing athlete but he's definitely got the goods and he's good enough to build a team around.  We've actually got a bit of mobility in our forward line, we've just never had anyone to centre it around.  Just need to get the young guys in and around him to do his running for him.  As others have said, I'm cautiously optimistic.  


May all depend how hungry he is...(hope I'm first in with this line)
