Agree we need to look at hooker. But if we signed a backrower of a decent standard I wouldnt complain to be honest. Hed need to be a good un though. Not just a grafter. Its right what it says. We've missed ellis enormously each time. Hes off to prop so that leaves pritchard n mini. We have cover yes. But next in line is way behind in standard. Plus pritchard be much more effective being spelled. Mini too for that matter. I look down the league and every top team is massivly relient on 2nd row strike.

Agree.
I'm not saying we should get another Pritchard but we need another 2nd row. We lose way to much when Ellis and/or Mini go off and Whiting/Hadley come on.

Backrow is probably our strongest position in the squad. I really don't see we need another backrower, unless one is leaving.
I would be interested to know what is happening with the three-quarters. We know Lineham is leaving and strongly suspect Sa is too. We've signed Carlos and Fonua is looking likely but it doesn't look like we will be signing anyone else. Does this mean Michaels is staying? This would give us
Talanoa Lancaster Logan Naughton (who will presumably cover at full back too) Carlos Fonua Michaels? Yeaman?
