Squad 2025

[Haven 123]

Weatheral has played there too.

[donald]

Kieran Tyrer from oldham the latest signing

[donald]

Ben Fisher the latest ex wigan and Salford academy 

[TerryM]

Never heard of these fellas and they have played little or no semi pro open age rugby. WhatS the point of bringing them up from Lancs .  If they had some experience and a  track record  i get it,  but this makes no sense to me  . That's both Fisher and Tyrer .  Nothing against them but they aren't going to change the fact we are cannon fodder next year so why not blood  more locals . The board have been clear 2025 is about fielding a team and not results  so just stick to the plan.

Tyrer played for the Wigan academy that won everything the other year and turned us over pre season if you remember . Came thro the system with nsemba and harvie hill

Least there’s gonna be 25 plus at training, on away games. We know where we are this year, just got to bite bullet and see where it gets us. How can we be negative when there’s lads down there who are young and are seen as the best kids out of the amateur scene. I can’t wait to see lads and what they can do. 

[JMB]

Can I ask who is doing the scouting and recommended the players for the club?

Gonna have more hookers than the red light in Amsterdam 

[Haven massive]

Is someone able to put positions played against the squad? Happy with the additions and great that we have a larger squad than this year but I am unfamiliar with quite abdew of the lads and it would be nice to see where we are covered and any possible weak areas positionally

We really have took the best local talent around here this year. Holgate the pick of the bunch for me, an early Christmas present. Well done to the board and everyone involved in making this Squad i am very excited for 25.
