Good news. Gives PG a chance to build his own side and work out
what he wants.

Have they actually said he's going, or just a repeat of the old
rumour that he's in talks?

So DC named 25 players that are out of contract at end of
season, just looking at the squad list on the website I have had
a guess at 23 of the 25:
Alofa
Boyce
Buchanan
Catrakilis
R.Chisholm
Cheeseman
Elia Elia
Horwill
Ibuanokpe
Kunatani
Lambert
Lewis
Luamanu
Mcnulty
Merrick
South
Swainston
Visser
Walker
Wallace
Ward
Waters
White
Thoughts?

If that list is correct - it would get rid of a huge amount of
dead wood and would be hugely positive.
The only players I would keep are:
Elia Elia
Ibuanokpe
Kunatani
The rest I would happily see leave

I think that is a good opportunity for PG to clear the decks
with a few names. Laskie, didnt he only sign a 1 year deal???
I would keep Cheeseman, Ibuanopke, Kunatani, Waters for definate
(also Laskie if he is ooc) Elia depends on how RB comes back,
but I do like him as a player
Others would depend on how they come back from injury RB,
Horwill, Visser, The Cat,
Then it would depend on who else is coming in. Cant make my
mind up about South, Swainston, McNulty, R Chisholm. Like I
said, depends who may be coming in

Yes, but that is always the problem of the DOR, isn't it? You
may want to get rid of all those people, but what if you can't
get anyone better? What if you can't get anyone at all? You've
just invested a huge amount of time, effort and trouble getting
the team to play your way and now you're jeopardising all that
by replacing half the team. Suppose some of those people have
fully bought into your vision, and you think you're going to be
swapping them for people only interested in the money and the
glory? Suppose all the people you want to get (who presumably
are better) are also 20% more expensive?
