Talks are progressing on one or two fronts but we're not yet at the stage where we are waiting on anybody.

I didn't hear one comment from one councilman that spoke against it, yet you voted against it, ... There was not a single reason given. ... You guys seem to be talkative on other issues.

We'll obviously use common sense, in that if players aren't yet up to the level of fitness we're looking for we won't risk them. We don't want to risk any injuries before the Northern Rail Cup campaign.

The point is that we are not at a place yet where we can say one way or the other.

The talks are not around clock yet, but they've got a really aggressive schedule starting this week.

We're not playing 100-percent yet. We have work to do.
