With this signing Lacans could be cover for the half back positions and number 9 interchange with Jones who does play better off the bench.Could this mean we are not in for Jubb?.We may not need another number 9 now.Like the fact we are giving younger players a chance rather than some ex SL who have disappointed in the past.

Herring played at 9 a few times last season in NSW cup, I think he will be the backup to Reynolds and lacans and will fill in at 9 if needed 

surely we aren’t still getting Callum turner unless we see him as a fullback as cover for aekins

   As stated earlier Turner will get players round the field and his kicking game is good but is lacking pace so that's why i would rule him out.

All these signings get me optimistic, then I realise James Ford is still head coach and I crash down to earth.

Wondered where you'd got to 😉

He’s staying, so let’s just hope that he proves us all wrong. Last season was tough, no excuses this season.

Trout didn't though.

😆 We could make up a full team I'm sure.  But seriously some really exciting signings and I don't think we'll be the championship minnows this season

Olpherts not a good enough defender for centre

Gale centre with Olpherts wing if we're wanting to play Gale / Olpherts / Wynne. I don't think it'll be the case though, I think 2 of the 3 will play with 2 specialist centres so long as everyone is fit.

I think it's still difficult to say as there was mention of some players retiring but they haven't been announced yet, and we haven't had confirmation yet of a couple of players about whether they will be with us next year (notably Nakubuwei). Plus the likelihood of further additions still to be announced.

After the jamboree of recent signings I wonder what's next   a re-signing like Brad Day a rumour mill like Carlos Tuimavave  or a new new signing like Clay Webb with the recent announcements we have eighteen on the books so with the penchant in recent seasons of ending up in the mid twenties means we've got lot's to look forward to

3-year deal announced for Brad Day, which I think is effectively a two-year extension as I think he was already contracted for 2025. Fair enough as he was very solid for us last year winning the players' and coaches' POTY awards.

We were heavily linked with Hatton, and that lad from Dewsbury. We need a specialist centre, not wingers playing in unfamiliar positions.

Hatton and O’Connor both specialist centres in my opinion

I'm sure someone can answer this question 

Why have you signed Callum Turner????? 

You've just signed another Halfback

You've already a couple of more experienced players in that position 

Where you going to play him

Fullback?? 

O'connor is a far better fullback and gives far more attacking options than Turner. 

Just don't get it 🤔
