5 new signing announced on Official Web Site from SL. But I see no props. More to come?

[Jason Alcorn]

These signings appear to be for the under 23's squad. Are there any 'super league' signings for the first team? And as Jamescolin says, any props?

[thundergaz]

Nothing official as yet but heard were talking to 2 SL props at the minute and trying to get both signed up not just one of them. Heard one is matt James don't know who the other is though.

[Kirkie]

This has to be good though cos if were looking to sl for 2014 then surely we have the numbers and by then the experience but yes for know all we need is a couple of prop forwards then and then the championship we will be ready to rip up once again just my opinion you understand

[Matt J]

In the props we have;

Haley
Crossley
England
Lockwood/Bostock who can fill in.

Think we need 1 prop as well as give opportunities to the highly rated U23 props.

[Kirkie]

In my opinion of those named above only england and crossley are out and out props lockwood haley second rowers and bostock centre or second rower all in my humble opinion of course

Haley is definitely an out and out prop, just more 'compact' than your traditional prop forward.

But I agree with the other 2.

I really hope he doesn't join us I've watched him quite a lot of times and he wouldn't add anything to our team IMO he's past it
