Good signing for you lot if Radford can sort out his temperament, when he was with us Cunningham didn't use him in the right way and never kicked on after that. At his best he will break through a tackle and provide a quality offload, always had a decent defence for me he still "a work in progress" player and he's got plenty of years to develop.

For me he is a second rower especially when he dropped a few kilos, very strong player though so he can be an emergency prop.

Heard the same about Lineham

Lineham or Briscoe?

Never though I'd say it but would prefer Lineham, Briscoe sadly us half the player he was for us

…. not Fonua then?

Even better

I’ll get stick for this but hey ho.

1) Jamie

2) Talanoa

3) Carlos

4) Jake

5) Buretto

6) AK

7) Sneyd

Bowden

9) Houghton

10) Green/Massi

11) Tag

12) Savellio

13) Westy


14) Sika

15) Ellis

16) Griffin

17) Hadley/Litten

Something got to give with our great second row pairing Sika & Minni, I would like to see Tag in the back row, think he would be devastating.

It will be difficult for Radders some quality will miss out.

I thought we had no salary cap space ?

Maybe we have made space, young players going out on loan for the year.

As far as I can tell from recent posts, the salary cap is calculated as the top 25 earners (whether they play or not) plus anyone else who plays (with minor exceptions for U21's).

That's why Cas wanted dispensation for Gale.

I'd imagine Logan will be in the top 25 as he's in year 4 of a 4 year contract.
If he leaves or is bought out, the player who is currently 26th in the earners will count in the cap.
I can't see that really making much difference to the cap total.

A big earner needs to leave or there is space on the cap. I reckon it's the latter.

Spending 90% of the cap still leaves £200k to play with. It doesn't make financial sense to squeeze every last drop out of the salary cap.

Or has also been suggested, Brisbane may be paying a lot of his salary.
