We all spend time talking about wanting Mason or Lockyer or O'Meeley when infact we all know deep down it's not going to happen.


Agreed.

It's very unlikely any ESL club will ever sign a current Aussie/SOO rep player anyway but given the salary cap its next to impossible.

It's a very closed market in RL for players anyway. None of the best Aussies will come to Britain until the end of their careers, and there is hardly any movement of any real quality between SL clubs. Maybe one big move a season.

Indeed. So let's go for Brett Kimmorley. He is 30 this year and is not going to be selected for any more rep football. He is a great organiser and short kicker, which is what is required at the moment. PLus at his age and in his current situation, we would have a good chance of getting him.

I'd rather have Matt Orford, quality.

We need a quality halfback and a BIG prop

Hes our best full back. I dont see many full backs on the market so he is worth keeping.

It's going to be impossible to improve every area of the team for next season imo and fullback isn't a priority imo.

Whilst i wouldn't call Phelps superb he's been very good at fullback and is easily good enough to play that position in superleague. He's worth signing up for at the very least another year.

I think one thing they need to do with Phelps is rid him of this utility tag. To me he's an out and out fullback, he's looked nothing but average in other positions yet has always been very good at fullback.

Not worth a quota spot though imo.

Richards at FB
Ainscough and Roberts on the Wings

What's wrong with that?

Phelps is a better fullback.

Who in all honesty would you sooner have at FB Ashton or Phelps?
