2021 squad

[townie88]

Superb! No other word for it. 

[DavidM]

Wow . Nice one . We’ve more hookers than Amsterdam !

[IanMac]

Looking at the squad on the website there’s 26 signed on. That’s probably the strongest squad we’ve had for quite a while, so a big well done to the board and Chris. You get the impression with the type of player we’ve gone for we could be watching( hopefully) an exciting brand of rugby. 

[townie88]

Going to be some real competition for places. Specifically centre, 2nd row and hooker.

Great news getting these lads signed on we all know what Dec, Jake and Calvin can do and it's exciting to have young lads willing to learn their trade at town and watching them develop under Chris, things are looking good and we look like we are building for the future and not short term, well done everyone concerned and welcome back to the club lads.

More great signings for you guys! I agree, it does look like you are building for long term rather than short, that being said, have these guys signed for a couple years or just the one? Wouldn't like to think they're going to jump ship soon as Ottawa start up again?

Ye they are only here for this coming season ,but we know that it’s nice to have them on board all the same, we will all just have to see what the season brings

[DavidM]

Unless we get another halfback one of those hookers could be covering there

Thanks mate

[Town utd]

looking at Dec, O'Brien, Henson,same type off number 9 strong players ,marwood has that bit of pace and backing up game I'm sure Chris could make marwood into a running half or full back with his pace?

[donald]

Gotta fancy your chances of promotion next season with no ottowa and barrow/newcastle not getting promoted to championship.  Jake Moore in my opinion was our player of the year until he got that bad injury and missed a big chunk of the season in 2019

I've heard use may be getting Forrestor back who could fill in the halves if needed

I think Henson can play in the halves David?

Too right.. 

[townie88]

Hanley signed on till the end of 2022 season is great news. Bed into the pro game no bother and seems a switched on young man. Look forward to see how he goes this season.

Is Miller in training? Yet to see him on any of the social media posts. Or have I missed something.

 

[Sticklebricks]

It’s great the resignings of our players, but I would love to see an extension for Chris as I think that’s probably the most important one we can make at the moment utt
