spanishknight Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 James Glover a centre has signed from Sheffield Eagles. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BridKnight Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Another excellent signing. Backs looking very strong now with threats right across the park. Just need a couple more big forwards to help punch holes in the opposition and create some space. But then what do I know! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spanishknight Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 (edited) Think the backs look much better than last season, much faster and the average age has dropped, defence will be better which is a good thing, 16 players signed on upto now think we need about 10 more, 6 or 7 forwards I reckon.

BridKnight Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 Yep - about right there SK. Thought we had more than 7 forwards signed to date. Fingers crossed for further news very soon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flatman didn't wanna blow anymore money than he had paying ford's contract off 500k was quite enough for one season Why do you think all the big rollers are retiring Cut the wage bill.. Do the mathematics 3 of your players were more than our entire wage bill Ask to see the books Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still would like to see another half back,can't go with just 2 like last season and maybe another winger,don't know if Dixon has been offered a contract for next season and he can kick goals as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggyroad Posted October 21, 2021 Share Posted October 21, 2021 I think overall we need to learn lessons from last season.We need the balance of youth and experience. I take what Coolie says with a pinch of salt,but he is probably right that last years squad with the ex super league players in it would have been on good contract plus paying out extra for a lot of loan players. The way the squad is been pieced together so far I think they are been alot more cautious about having a squad of ex super league and focusing more on championship experience.I think we need to see who is retained really,but we will need experienced players to keep us in with a chance of a top 6 place 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
