You would hope someone like young Marwood got at least a  year when he signed. 

There’s a fair bit of recruitment to do so hopefully whoever is the coach is appointed in good time so that things can be done in good time.

Great starting point. Be interesting over the coming weeks to see if any of the current faces are announced as staying?

[DavidM]

Getting a full squad and keeping them for the full season would be a good start 

[Spike]

Amy players in particular u would like to sign 

[town2018]

Why is it every year we have to start building a new team again we always seem to get a team just for 1 season rather than build a team for years to come

14/15 players on contract so wouldn't say we need to build a new team .

Has shown the odd flash of class , but generally been a disappointment

Given where he’s been and what we’ve seen before ... underwhelming tbh

[town4me]

I 'd like to see another addition in the halves for next season.  This is a key area that IMO we need  strengthend in.

Make same mistakes every year

[David69]

Like to think sign penky. Scored some good tries,and on his day no better hooker in this league.

I like penky but he isn't the future and will be costly. Dec odonnel and marwood will be our 9's imo

[town2018]

I think for us to move forward a club we need a good clean out off players and start again people saying we don’t need to rebuild a new team but how many times this year have we not had numbers at training or games where most don’t look interested why don’t we start with players that want to play for the club

weve got 2 players that have been injured all year is it really beneficial to keep them next year knowing how injury prone 

[DIG IT]

Need to name who the coach is first then he has the players he wants.

[Cumbria RL]

I can’t believe Rooney has give backword.

[DavidM]

Penky’s been great in general but he was obviously upset when Leon went and i’m not sure if he’s been quite the same consistently since . I can see him moving on tbh

[The Voodooguru]

I'm amazed Danny Tickle hasn't been mentioned yet as he has been very good for us this year, almost like a player coach on the field. He hasn't exactly just came up for a final pay packet.

Correct. Largely goes unnoticed. But he's one Id defiantly like to keep. With Ollie finishing and the prospect of saying bye to a few other experienced folk, keeping him would be a plus (if he doesn't want to retire himself). Been very consistent this year and plays big minutes
