I actually had to Google Danny Langtree. Don't remember him at all.
Danny Langtree has some superb performances in the reserves, he never got a shot in the first team, he was a second row with great pace, and an eye for the try line, but the whisper at the time was because of the salary cap and appearance constraints he didn’t make it, I’m surprised this passed you bye.

Once I actually saw a picture of him it did start ringing bells, I just couldn't remember anything about him.
there would be a lot id let go before hoy.carlos,brown,cator,fash,okunbor,lane.its vital we get a top 7,at least 1 centre and at least2 secondrowers.if brown and houghton go,we also need another hooker and to play him at 9if i was smith and pearson id be trying to announce a top signing as soon as possible to give fans something positive.its all doom and gloom as moment..
Our shopping list for next year is ridiculous, taking into account who will definitely be here next year and what our priorities are, I’d probably look at something like this
1. Walker 2. Martin (or McIntosh if he stays) 3. New centre 4. Sutcliffe 5. Tindall 6. Trueman 7. New 7 8. Ese’Ese 9. New Hooker 10. Ashworth 11. New back row/Sao 12 Okunbor 13. new loose
Ideally we need atleast another decent winger but probably not a priority. Okunbor needs to improve but he’ll be here next year
3 quota spots available for a 7, 9 & 13 for me. (Assuming Tex, Carlos & Brown leaving).
Off contract I think Dean Hawkins got to be a good shout for 7 but south Sydney have called him up this week. Looks to have a good kicking game) Clifford a maybe).
Not sure on Hooker, zac Woolford and options but not sure if he’s got enough zip out of acting half
Loose I’d go Ray stone but I think he’ll stay at Dophins. His only issue would be his disciplinary over here I reckon
Need a non quota centre & backrow. But genuinely have no clue apart from the obviously unattainable Mcmeeken.
Then I think we need players like Bullock for depth, attitude and reliability.
If we nail a good 7, 9 & 13. I think we can probably battle for lower end of play offs

All irrelevant we will be scrapping the bottom of the bargain basement. We won’t sign anyone of note. Davies, McMeeken, Johnstone all been linked elsewhere we should be looking at them all but we won’t be anywhere near signing that calibre of player. Championship dross for us.
Hoy played on Saturday like someone looking to prove the club wrong, I hope he catches a break with injuries and stands out at FB, I do think there is some promise in him.
