Time to trust in our youth, alot of those youngsters like Fash, Lane and Masi are pretty experienced now.
saints and wigan churn out better quality young players than us on a consistent basis. We'll be fine unless we get 3 or 4 injuries in the forwards when we'll be in a hole
Pack next year likely to be
taylor houghton satae
jones ma'u
sao
ellis savelio griffin bowden
back up props/13
brown masi fash bienek? nzongou?
3 of those have barely played a SL game between them
2nd row
lane cator? - is he even a back rower? Don't know anything about him other than he player for rovers
hooker
no one, but fash will go there if we lose houghton which would be a disaster if long term
So we need to pray we don't get too many injuries or our pack simply won't be competitive. 3 or more and we're in the mire IMO

Couldn’t agree more , plus Ellis for me is getting less effective now and picking up more niggles and injuries. It’s swift we shouldn’t have signed , especially if we was planning on keeping the 2 wingers who are playing at the minute . The balance of the squad is odd at the minute unless things change , way to many decent backs ., who will be on a decent wage .

Obviously hooker is a concern, but I seem to remember Cator doing a good job for Rovers at our place last year when it chucked it down. He started that game and put himself about.
I'd also like us to sign up another british prop, If we are planning to use Ellis as our fourth prop, it leaves us a little thin on the ground.
Looking at the stats for Sao and Satae in the NSW they both look a handfull and chew up metres for fun.
both get well over 100m per game, and look to have a decent offload game.

Great stats, thanks for sharing. The 4 incoming forwards all look like they'll bring some quality to the pack. Agree on another prop.
