You've missed off Butterworth and Leadbeater, who both play on the wing.

Mikey Wood just been announced by Newcastle.

Did we lose any juniors this off season other than Mudoti?

There was talk of that Murphy being on the cusp of fist team last season but he doesn't seem to have been mentioned stepping up.

That would be 8 signings instead of the mooted 6. Possibly evidence that we'll be reliant on the DR system as many have suggested.

Yeah, but I feel we need 8 more bodies wether they come from DR and we sign them.

Surprised we haven’t tried getting Sammut back for another stint. I know he has some flaws in his game but he would go well for us I feel. Apparently Batley are talking to him so you would imagine he isn’t asking for silly money.

With the rumours around Kear and Chisholm last year and there being a clash on style of play, I wouldn't be surprised if Sammut wasn't Kear's kind of half back in the same way that Dane wasn't.

The thing that concerns me is with the bodies that we have is how the hell are we supposed to run a reserve side as well.
