Dragons invest in youthful forwards


Recommended Posts

Catalans have signed 22-year-old forward Matt Whitley from Widnes on a 2-year deal.  meanwhile, Mickael Goudemand, also 22, has signed his first full-time contract with the club, a 3-year deal.

This looks like sensible succession planning to me.

Thanks for liking the post, audois and S80.

Looking at the Dragons' forwards, they look to have 6 who are 30 y.o. or more, 4 aged between 25 and 29, and 7 under 25, though I imagine that last group will include one or two who will not necessarily make it.

I think that's probably a reasonable balance between youth and experience.  I think Goudemand and Whitley have both been nominated as SL rookie of the year, albeit in different seasons and neither got the nod, which went this year, I think, to Truman from the Tigers (a good choice, in my opinion)
