There are a lot of rumours at the moment circulating about Stacey...
Will he go to SL?
Does the club have to get vrid of him to accomodate Choc Mundine?
Remember that he was very close to signing with Hull last year.

Warriors halfback Stacey Jones and CEO Mick Watson today responded to speculation about the veteran player's future with the NRL club.
After reading weekend media reports that he might be leaving the club at the end of the season, 28-year-old Jones said his only focus right now was on the Warriors.
"My total commitment is to our 2005 campaign," he said after playing his 220th NRL match in his side's loss to Wests Tigers in Christchurch last night.
"I've just been made the club's first life member and have a huge respect for the Warriors. I owe them so much.
"As one of the senior players I regularly talk to Mick about my role at the club and I've always had the chance to look at other options.
"What happens in the future is something I'll talk about with Mick when the time is right. I'm fully aware of the club's plans but right now it's all about winning football games for me."
Watson echoed Jones' thoughts.
"Stacey Jones is playing good football this season and is driving this club on the field," he said.
"Stacey and I will talk about his future nearer to June 30 (when the NRL's anti-tampering ban expires).
"We will decide what is right for the future and what is the best pathway for Stacey, his family and the club.
"Right now he and I alike are focused on just one thing - on-field performance and the Warriors finishing in the play-offs."
