Signings???

The bonus with Olstrom spelling off Penky is that he doesn't have to come off the bench to do it. Start him at 13 and move him to 9 when Penky gets replaced by another forward

The season is to long to rely on penky as our only recognised hooker. Especially at the age he is. I'd imagine it will be top of the list for DR if we can't get another specialist hooker in.

Karl biggest asset is he can cover anywhere in the pack and at centre. However hooker isn't near the top of the list of positions he can cover.

Just looking at his bio Hopkins scored 55 tries for Leigh , which is pretty amazing for a prop 

He  scored for us at barrow in a dr appearance from Wigan when viewers was first here if I remember correctly

He did , crashed over near the sticks . Was good enough to get signed by Wigan but ended up back at Leigh

Sam Hopkins confirmed, superb signing. 

[DavidM]

One hell of a coup . Only 28 and a regular in a team that dominated the championship 

[town4me]

Excellent signing well done to the club for pulling this one off. 

[townie88]

great news.

[DavidM]

Wilkes , Moi Moi , Hopkins , Scholey , Dawson , Curwen , Barnes , big Gordon , Tickle , Olstrum , Penky . I’d say that was a pretty scary set of forwards for anyone in this league

We've deffo got the best pack in the league.

Great signing our pack is looking formidable, sorry to hear that Kurt is no longer with us we cant afford to lose good squad players but if he wasn't happy then so be it.

[havenhater]

Sure we still hold his registration so who knows what might happen.

I hope the likes of Sutton distington. rooke seaton and a few others still get game time elsewhere if there not in our 17s. 

[townie88]

It takes a squad effort to challenge at the top. Not just a 17. I'm sure all the lads will get opportunities. Up to them to take them when they come around.
