Our attack is woeful. Last clearly never had the capability to improve it and I doubt cartwright is an attacking coach. You only had to look at how cas set up in our 20 on saturday to see the difference. They looked organised, everyone knew what they were doing. The complete opposite to us
Easy to kick the boys when they are down to the bare bones, Cas have quite good quality at 1, 6, 7, 9, and 13, we don’t, but we did manage to get back in the game, and a couple of missed opportunities you never know.

According to the HDM is was not our first choice as once again we were turned down by the player/players we wanted.Sailor was mentioned I know we are weak at centre so why dont we go all out to sign a centre. There is just no strategy We are ok in the wing positions,and even if Walker leaves we have full back cover in Moy,Litten and Hardaker. Notice there is no place in your proposed team for our star 3 year man Chamberlain
Chamberlain is a decent squad player, will provide good cover in a number of positions, replaces Scott, not sure why him signing is a big deal.
Maybe there aren't any decent centres available, so we sign a good player in another position rather than a poor centre.
I'd try him at centre, but suspect he will play fullback.

with their championship half backs and their part time electrician!
I'd love us to sign their coach as an assistant to work under cartwright. danny ward, Laurent Frayssinous and richard marshall all former SL head coaches now working as assistants

Er possibly 28 year old ham n egger gets a three year deal, replacing 24 year old centre with pace, who regularly doubles up as a second row.
