There is a likelihood that a whole year group will be lost - last years school year 11 - with the likelihood of little if any RL action this year and if there is, the risk of the union season overlap. No Origin games to tease out the best players for the Broncos pathway. This under 16 age group only have Open Age as a next step !

Where are we with the squad for next season, has anything been posted?

Apart from what I posted originally, Ive not seen or heard anything.

OUT

Fozzard - Ottawa (confirmed)
Butler - Wire
Smith - York
Ashall Bolt - ??

3 Good players out there (Never really saw much of OAB). Hopefully we will hear about some decent incomings soon

Ive got no idea about the contract situations for next season

Bott the FB from Widnes off across the Atlantic

One game he played.

Still interested in where ottowa are gonna be based, might have been a pull for OAB as he is gonna be back home.

They do seem to be signing mostly Widnes Vikings or Widnes born players...Foz and Bott from us and possibly a quartet from current Widnes squad...

OAB was off contract ages ago - remember the list the RFL issued, LB didnt offer him a contract.

His only game, I felt for the lad. Took one hit and hobbled around for the rest of the game, bearing in mind he'd come back from a lengthy lay off with back issues.

Good luck to the lad.

OAB confirmed now

2 out

Sad to see, he was standout at widnes when we played em, shame about his injury, maybe the standard of RL at SL and top end of championship was too much, a step down to NL1 might give him a chance to bulk up a bit and help with preventing re occurence.
Yeah looking at the recruitment looks like they will base themselves up that area.
Reckon the coach choice was driven a bit by canada location will sit well with the locals in runcorn and Hull (thats hull ottowa)

League Express reporting that we have 14 signed up for next season with 14 OOC (guessing that included Fozzard and OAB) Ward unable to do much currently until we know what is happening with next seasons funding.
