We get a one more decent prop and start doing some damage down the middle, while i had my doubts over ratch at centre, i can see him doing some good work on the back of a good pack.

Sounds good to me, If we can sign a prop that would make it for me.

I'm not sure why but I always thought of R EVANS as a centre playing on the wing. Is he ever going to make a centre spot his own, and is that perhaps TS's thinking. Has King overtaken him, and then there is Wheeler...!

King hasn't overtaken him, he's not played enough yet, though rhys best patch of form iirc was back in 11, or 12 when he came in and was playing centre. Whether he's fit enough to give him a run there, is another question.

Think we're done on the signings front.

I think we are still on the look out for a prop based on all the paper talk we saw last week.

A big offensively destructive prop would be just the ticket.

There must be a massive South Sea Islander out there somewhere?!

Can't fault the club for taking decisive action.
Yes a destructive prop would be great but not many around.

Really not sure if we're good enough for top 4 though.

Leeds, Wigan, Saints will still be there and Hudds won't be far off.

:

1. Russell
2. Evans
3. Currie (still too young for a full time forward spot)
4. Ratchford
5. Lineham
6. Gidley
7. Sandow
8. Hill
9. Clark
10. Simms
11. Westwood
12. Atkins (until Currie fills out)
13. Westerman

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

neutral zone. I like your thinking. but want to expand.

I think that ryan atkins will make a great bench 2nd rower. and should be his position going forward. it solves a couple of problems that can and most likely will occur next year.

so as stated. I would move atkind too 12. Whilst currie for me will not be in the 17 as I like how neutral has the 17.
I would move jack Johnson into the regular full back position and matty russell into the centres with stef ratchford. this will accomplish 2 things.
atkins is available to play in the 2nd row off the bench and bust through tackles we know he can do.
but if any of the back row gets injured. we can utilise atkins back in the centres and then that frees up rachford too fill in the hole of the injured back row.

we have a virtue of talent in the backs now. there is massive strength in depth. maybe 1 more second rower is needed and 1 up and coming prop. move benny westwood into the prop as others have mentioned and prolong his career a bit. but then we have a world class player ready too come in when benny calls it quits. with currie and the other kids we have. the future is certainly looking alot more brighter.
