doesn’t leave much for the no 6. rising star position will be interesting too. Initial thoughts were hodder due to his links with the previous NDL team but with his recent leg injury will anyone take that risk?

I like the sound of Flint and Thompson leading the line. I think there’s a lot of potential there and significantly more to come. Both continuing their development in the Premiership and abroad can only benefit us.

I still hope so.  I see a hunger and potential in him. 

Just like Tom Brennan...? 😁 "Supported his career" over two whole seasons ..?😄

Now that Tom has confirmed he is having double surgery this winter to remove metal work from both legs could this have played a part in Mayfields decision not to renew his contract. Concerns over fitness and all that.

Same as Ipswich with continuity  2023 Doyle Emil King Thompson Rew All part of the team in the 2024 cup winning side and then 4 of them in the title winning side … Jenkins and Edwards also in the team in those seasons as well  Ellis was sacked by Sheffield so we didn’t have to do any poaching and Brennan needed to leave a club that was not paying its riders after Belle Vue showed him the door…. We couldn’t keep Rew after he demanded pay the same as Doyle and Ipswich won’t overpay for a rider  Continuity isn’t always possible as Belle Vue have found before with Lidsey and Brennan  Shame with what happened at Ipswich at the end of 2025 otherwise Doyle and Ellis would have still been in the side … Dan Thompson was already going to Leicester as he had a sponsorship deal Ipswich couldn’t match  Now we have to rebuild after a season of just staying alive so hopefully moving forward Bewley and Cairns if they sign will be part of Ipswich for years to come
