What do people think of our transfer business so far? I think our squad is taking shape quite nicely. Our pack really is looking much improved. . I'm expecting us to line up something like this when everyone is fit:

1. Rusell
2. Evans
3. Atkins
4. Ratchford
5. Lineham
6. Gidley
7. Sandow
8. Hill
9. Clark
10. Dodds
11. Westwood
12. Currie
13. Westerman

14. Dwyer
15. Sims
16. Hughes
17. Harrison

IMO Atkins and Currie should be swapped but otherwise I agree, we're starting to look decent.

I'll go for

1. Russell
2. Penny
3. Atkins
4. Ratchford
5. Lineham
6. Gidley
7. Sandow
8. Hill
9. Clark
10. Dodds
11. Westwood
12. Currie
13. Westerman

14. Dwyer
15. Sims
16. Hughes
17. Harrison

but I think Westwood & Harrison will be spending a large % of time subbing or at prop.
It's looking much stronger.

I'd mostly agree, I'd be swapping Westwood & Hughes around though and think Evans would probably get the nod ahead of Penny.

I'd still like to see us bring in a right centre, freeing Ratch / Gidley for full back & stand off, with Russell moving to left wing.

I think Weatwood should be used in the middle, we need a bit of aggression and someone to make the hard yards when Hill and Sims are off.

Russell
Lineham
Ratchford
Atkins
Penny
Sandow
Gidley
Hill
Clark
Sims
Hughes
Currie
Westerman

Dwyer
Westwood
Dodds
Laithwaite

Decent team, with Harrison, Evans, Evans, Wilde, Philbin, Johnson, Ormsby, Juillien, Patton, King, King and Livett in reserve.

Must admit though, a centre would really set it off.

I'm getting pretty excited now Westerman has arrived too. Another centre would be great (although not essential)

League express says we still scouting the NRL for a prop.

That is the only thing missing, the right one here could really push the team forward.

For R Evans see G Wheeler and vice versa, both to injury prone to help the team push for honours.

With Atkins improvement at the end of last season and Ratchford in the centres we have a well balanced pair. If we can get a bulldozer prop we're sorted. Penny over Evans on the wing for me.
