So far we know we have lost Kenny Baker (Rochdale) we have heard we have lost Rhodri, Butty and Gregson to Widnes and Louis brogan to Leigh

Have heard that Roby is turning his back on York to sign for Swinton and that Bennion and Gibson have signed on for another year while Romeo hasnt been offered another contract

He's a good player is Jack. Played his junior rugby at Clock Face Miners in the same team as Lewis Hatton. He then signed up for Widnes academy before signing for Cru.

I think he's a cracking player. Good signing for you guys.

Yes Badrock accepted a contract for next year. Lloyd and butt will give you 100% each week and Gregson has been an enigma I think, but he has been moved all round the pitch playing stand off, hooker. Second row and loose. Loose is definitely his position 

 

Joe Lowe has accepted an offer to play in France

Surprised Romeo hasn't been offered a contract, if true having Roby next season is great, also heard that Lepori and Abram are staying, hope Hall, Rodden, Case and Cox also stay. 

I know I am like a broken record but we really do need an established standoff to play along side Gibson, we have struggled all season and Gregson is not a standoff but a loose forward with a good pair of hands

I am also very surprise that Lloyd, Butt and Gregson have decided to leave. Brogan will do well at Leigh and has all the talent to be a regular in their team.

Think both would be great pick ups for you guys, Brad unfortunately has too many better players ahead of him and just needs regular game time, as for Davies gives nothing but 100% probably the most unfortunate to be released but at the same time if we are to improve ourselves we need an improvement

Totally agree about another stand off, Hatton would need to come back on less money then he was on first time around. Would like Holroyd and Davies back as well

The big priority for next season is getting Gibson tied down. He was Swinton’s best and most consistent player and swept all the awards up deservedly.

The next priority is getting someone to partner him. I could probably count 10 players who played with him this season. 

Teams can see it too. Whitehaven put an extra defender on his side of the field so no wonder scoring points was hard work.

Worryingly I know 100% Gibson has not signed up yet. Not to say he won’t but it’s far from done with other clubs interested in him. Now roby has signed that needs to be the next priority for the board.

Has Gibson signed? His name was mentioned in the Barrow forum as a possible target.

Romeo gone, shame that as I thought he improved massively towards the end of the season
