We've struggled all season when paea and watts were off together. Personally I don't think we're fine. elis may be an option if he comes back but how many games will we get out of him? His body is shot

As I said, we've sorted out the wing position. If you want to use founua in the centres it addresses point 3 but leaves us short in point 4.

Like I said, we haven't addressed the problems IMO


Totally agree Jake...

What is most baffling, is that we are allegedly in for another backrower.. when we already have Pritchard & Minichiello.(and backups Whiting,Hadley,Thompson,Turgut ,Yeaman,Washbrook Fash)

In the HDM,it stated it was to cover for Ellis, who was rumoured to move to prop anyway.surely we should target another prop, if their is a doubt over Ellis's future.??

Then ,why have we signed another 6, who has played infrequently at centre? - Surely Abdull can cover 6?

I like the signings of Pritchard,Taylor & Fonua.

Had we not retained Michaels & Yeaman, coupled with Sa and Rankin, surely we couldve signed a centre and a hooker? instead of signing two players who are predominantly play in other positions. ie Tuimavave & Washbrook

Taylor is a big minutes prop so that will address some of the impact, I don't see many SL teams (only Leeds ) with better props than us.

Out recruitment isn't perfect but much improved on last years and as good as any other team in SL.

With out squad we should progress on thus season and challenge for 4th next year.

For us to challenge the top four, who do you expect to drop places? Huddersfield, Castlesford, Warrington? Not having a dig, genuine question.
Back row is fine as it is imo. A young hooker who isn't needed to play every game but give Houghton a rest once in a while would be a good idea imo. If we don't sign Vidot I'd play Fonua on the wing and sign a specialist centre.

Well we're not getting a hooker as we are getting another backrower. We can't sign a centre because we are using the cap room on yet another backrower. And we are moving Yeaman to the backrow just in case we get short of backrowers.

we had one called Cunningham

Everyone but the club knows we need a specialist centre
