Not convinced we have £150k cap space with all these renewals, the being able to afford one may also be an issue, can see crowds being down all summer and that will add up. But we can dream eh!

Great news on Bowden and especially Taylor.
I wouldn't have kept Washbrook, think he is done at the top level and would rather see gametime to Lane, Litten and Turgut, who all have more potential than him, saying that with a testimonial i think he will be on peanuts for this contract,#
As a junior Jack brown was/ is outstanding and is probably the best prop aged 18 at the moment, very highly rated throughout the game.
I still think we might recruit, i'd try and release Paea and use his money and a couple of young players out on loan to bring in a prop, I'd take a gamble on Dave Taylor, who I think we could get cheap. I wouldn't rule out a move for Josh Jones aswell.

Dave Taylor to replace Paea? Wow. Here's a thread from March... I hate to think what he looks like now.
Certainly not the model professional we want our club to be built around.

For all the lack of recruitment for 2019, 2020 will be manic in comparison I reckon. Can’t see us renewing at least Washy, Paea, Tuli, Mini or Manu. Lots of salary cap and quota spots to play with.
