GeordieTownie Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's whether they can afford 30 that's the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 You need a strong squad and you need quality ready to come in and be a game changer . I don't see it as either or . To me , a player like Lewis , there's no down side for a team at our level . I'd snap both your hands off for a year of him . It raises your level all around . Competition , being around good players and depth are good . It sends out a good signal if it ever happened , but that's just my opinion . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anonymouse Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 to be honest i dont see it as an area to be worried about and the last 5 matches have shown that the wings are fine , cash is tight and there are other areas need working on more , but that just my opinion too .

DavidM Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 It's funny looking at all the forums . They're all starting the same craic , about signings and what they need . Certainly getting into that season now. All to often though it's much of separating wheat from lots of chafe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wonky Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 why pay another traveller fb /wing while theres forrester trying to get game time ? I think the back line is covered well enough unless injury loans are called for . PV has said he wants to have a 30 man squad so i dont see much need for loans if town manage to sign 30 in all cover positions .to be fair Lewis is the finished article to come straight into champ rugby. Obviously vievers dosent think that Sam is there yet. Tierney at full back with Brett and ell on the wings would be excellent for next year. Although I don't think there's much chance we will ever see him in a town shirt again. the futures bright,the futures blue and white Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GeordieTownie Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 I think Sam has been error free in the games he's played so while he doesn't have the physique of the others he does have the ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidM Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 If we don't sign another centre , next year I'd like to see Eliot tried alongside Dec . Sam is ready to come into the back three . Worth a go anyway for me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anonymouse Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 If we have a 30 man squad next year we have to have some kind of A team where guys get game time agreed and in your 20's in your prime you have to play regular as you have spent your life reaching this level and have very limited time in a very short career , playing at top amateur level would be more appealing than not getting a game , it isnt all about the money which in itself is very low pay at this fringe level .

DavidM Posted August 28, 2015 Share Posted August 28, 2015 It's about half an A team isn't it ? After the Rapley Report , and talk about cooperation , what about starting off with a combined A team ? If we both have around 30 players , couldn't you together get a viable A team for players ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith T Posted August 29, 2015 Share Posted August 29, 2015 Well all the young lads have been named in the matchday 19 but no Stack or Callum? Where's Stacky? We missed him last match. I remember when ............................."It is impossible not to feel a twinge of sympathy for Workington Town, the fall guys this season for the Super League's determination to retain it's European dimension, in the shape of Paris. While the French have had every assistance to survive, the importance of having a flagship in a heartland area like West Cumbria has been conveniently forgotten." - Dave Hadfield - Independent 25th August 1996.

Monkeydo Posted August 30, 2015 Share Posted August 30, 2015 Please PV pick Scholey over Whiteley, he offers far more off the bench. Have a feeling it'll be the other way round unfortunately Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
