Was common knowledge anyway but the club have announced we have signed Walters from next season on a 3 year deal, I'm personally happy with that signing, I think he has bags of potential.

Still falls within the 'potential' category for me but he definitely has lots of it. Be interesting to see whether he ends up in the middle or on the edges.

We need more power close to the opposition line and Walters will help with that. I’ve been impressed when I’ve seen him recently.

I think Walters would be better suited to play 13 if I’m honest, big lad with a cracking set of hands and a good offload.
Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.
