I agree, but as always, you have to wonder just how much scope he has to significantly improve things. Even with, potentially, a couple of non-fed spots the quality of imports from the NRL is dropping due to economic factors. I doubt we're in a position to pay fees for SL players. Whose ooc and would make a big difference? Best case is 4 or 5 who each make a small difference I guess.

Although I don't have any confirmed knowledge, I was told by a usually reliable source that 7 will be going, Webster, Galea, Watts, Murrell, Netherton, Mc Donnell and Clinton. This was from someone within the club.

I've heard nothing.
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

I'd keep Lovegrove for his utility value. I'd also keep Nev as well, he won't cost much and can be relied on when the heavy defending is needed.
