John Cartwright has been linked with the Perth expansion club this morning

The article in the Telegraph in aus looks to be throwing out random names though

It's definitely needed on the club website there's only 7 first team coaching staff listed including Grix, with one being a performance analyst and a couple of rehab and sports scientists with very little experience. Ellis isn't listed on there but that's still an incredibly low number for a professional sports team. We need to be getting in at least half a dozen experienced back room staff, imo this is just as important as next seasons player signings.

Damel Diakhate sacked by Catalans Dragons along with Jayden Nikorima and Siosiua Taukeiaho. .

These new changes are absolutely vital, for the team to become competitive next season, this will ensure the players are on a par fitness wise, with the rest of SL.

In my opinion as vital as a marquee signing.

Very positive news.

This is the reason, we had a poor culture and a disastrous season. This staffing structure has been cut to the bone, and probably is similar to a championship club .
The working environment creates atmosphere and culture, ie poor training facilites, and a severe lack of backroom staff
= amateur preparation = amateur performance .
Blame has been apportioned to the players, the finger of blame should be pointed at Pearson/Clark in my opinion for allowing this to happen.
thankfully Myler is now addressing this problem .

Instagram stalker mode turned on...

Cam Scott posted with a picture the MKM with the caption 'over and out' would we be releasing him to Wakefield early?

He is out for the season isn't he?

No idea, I wasn't sure what his injury was?

Worry for me is that none of the signings we've announced are really addressing the issues we have in the squad. We're crying out for quality in the centres and back down and have signed holmes, hardaker and Chamberlain. No real step up in quality to what we have. Likewise half back. I know some on here are convincing themselves that abdul is like the 2nd coming of Peter Sterling but he isn't. He's been poor all season, is completely out of shape and injured again. If we're pinning our hopes on him next year God help us.

What we need is another decent prop, a hard running 2nd rower and 2 quality centres or we won't be much better than we are now
