| Quote Michigan red="Michigan red"I would as has been suggested by others put DJ into the lock position, play Sneyd at 6.'"
Why do we always want to play players out of position, DJ is a half back it's either there or nowhere. Let's face it I doubt Matty Smith will be with us next season so Sneyd can partner Holdsworth.
Quote Michigan red="Michigan red"we seem to have enough cover in the second row to not worry about buying in to replace Anderson as we have Neal, Wilde, Ashurst, Adamson, McPherson, Nero and maybe a coule of the 20's squad.'"
Sorry mate but they're average at best, Neal is a prop, he wants to play prop so leave him there. Wild is a loose forward (who for me is nearing the end of his career) Ashurst I like, a good solid second rower and Nero is really just a fill in at second row. And McPherson is build like a second rower but for some reason people fancy him as a prop, he's not big enough.

| I'm not sure Smith will be moving on, he's not exaclt carried on the form he started the season with and I get the impression he might be the one that breaks the mould and shows commitment to the team who gave himn regular first team rugby and especially if Long is on the coaching staff next season.
Well you know me I rate Neal but don't think unless the weather is scortching he has the build for it and do see him as a big minutes second rower, also don't see McPherson as a front rower, suspected he might be before he arrived but I remain to be convinved and that we havn't boaught a crock as he does seem injury prone but good when he is on the pitch.
DJ definately has the size for a 13 though not sure on his defense, Wilde I see as very important as he does the hard work that doesn't get him noticed but I bet he is one of the most important players to the other players (reguardless of him being captain that is). Nero is valuable as he can take a bench spot and at a push cover the centres, or any of the back three forward positions, Adamson is performing more like his old self and is for me worthy of a new contract and surely a couple of the 20's have got what it takes to step up, so at most I'd say we need one 2nd rower and I'd go for another younger Ashurst type.

| Have you heard the rumours about Paul Wellens receiving an offer from Salford. Saints are reluctant to offer him a new deal and Salford are rumoured to have made him an offer. How would you feel about that?

I'd be gutted, very much a backwards step if true, I'd rather spend that kind of money on a prop and trust one of the youngsters or see how Towers performs.

No Luke Patten, but solid enough I suppose. Would prefer someone younger with a bit more pace though.

Is this Towers an Aussie, from your academy or French? He's the one from the French league?

He's an Aussie, who we signed from Limoux, who is now playing in our academy. So your sort of right on all 3

Pretty much the polar opposite of Luke Patten so should delight the Turkey posters who think our current full back is our worst player ever because he (allegedly) isn't much cop in one on ne situations. I think Wellens is one of the best fbs in SL - excellent defensively and good support player. Would rather we invested in someone younger but, providing he's not about to fall apart physically, he'd be a top filler fo the next couple of years whilst we bring a few youngsters through

| Andrew Dixon is rumoured to have signed for Salford for next season. Another second rower, but a much better prospect than Matty Ashurst. Shades of Lee Gilmour in his running style and a lot of Saints fans unhappy that he's been let go.

| If we get Dixon does that mean no new deal for Adamson? I think Ashurst has been very good for us so if Dixon is better brilliant! Glad to see confirmation that Williams has agreed a 2 yr deal as well. Also I asked Sean Long if he is staying long term & his response was 'all will be revealed' - watch this space I think!

Or maybe Anderson? I think they're both off contract at the end of the year.

| Has anyone heard any rumours regarding players for next season yet? Being that the pack is a priority the OOC player I think could be worth considering is Morley, Cooper, Watts? Any other suggestions? With Smith more of less some I hope PV lets Marc Sneyd have a crack for a season see how he goes. I'm not sure about Towers at FB, I think someone mentioned he had a shocker in the 9's and was terrible under the high ball, McDonnell would be a decent recruit but I doubt we could afford his wage as PV said he's looking for value players.

| According to MEN tonight Gibson has agreed a new deal which i think is good as he provides good cover in the squad. Also says that we are looking for 5 news signings (andy Dixon from saints rumoured to be one) and replacements for Patten, smith, Gleeson. Also says Vinnie Anderson and Luke Adamson are after new deals.....not sure about either to be honest

| There is a rumour on the Cas forum that Anderson is going there.I did see Millward in the stadium on Friday night.
Cas have announced that Ellis is going there from Hull FC.The press yesterday reported FC making an offer for Danny Brough.If so,it should put to bed the MEN reports about DJ.

| Wouldn't be unhappy to see the back of Anderson, good in patches but you'd guess one of the higher earners currently on the books.

Not to sure where I'd stand on that one. Would he becoming as a Hooker or Half? Think he's better as a number 9 these days but I'd be happy Godwin / Howarth and Owen for the long run. Maybe he replacing Smith, I'd prefer to give Sneyd a season to try and establish himself can do no harm. One for the Full Back situation next season, presuming Vievers prefers an attacking option, I'd try see what the chances of Russell from Wigan coming on a season long loan. That being if this Towers is not being retained.

There's a poster on the Hull board saying we've signed Holdsworth. He's usually spot on with his info to. Broughy is staying at Hudds.

Pretty certain he's got another year to go on his contract so there would have to be a fee involved, if there isn't one offered I'd hold him to his contract as we gain nothing at the end of it anyway.
