Would have liked to see Jake get a chance on the wing, think he could have filled the void left by Walmsley (Would be very shocked if he stayed).

I don't believe we currently have the players to make up the bucket load of tries that Lachlan scored so the next few player announcements will be crucial.

Frustrating to see proven championship players, and players dropping from SL, going to a lot of other clubs whilst we appear to be treading water. I'm sure Liam and the club know what they are doing though.

I’m not feeling good about our recruiting at the moment. We have championship and championship 1 clubs signing the Fev players that have been released we seem to be loosing our better players and nothing coming in. This squad didn’t make the play offs this season we won’t have any hope next if we don’t start signing xxx❤️

I presume you left 'not' out there? Re recruitment we seem to gave got two really good players in AOB and Douglas but losing Walmsley would be a disaster. I would really like John Davies but whoever we get/miss out on it doesn't really matter does it, thanks to IMG.

I did mean not. Amended it now

Irrelevant of IMG I don’t want us to be a poor team that gets turned over by the rest of the teams I want us to win everything and be top of our league even if we can’t get promoted.

Me too Faxlore me too. If Walmsley does leave i would of like us to either keep Maizen or try and sign Luke briscoe but it looks like he is Donny bound like many others or Oldham bound who seem to be signing all and sunday.

Yeah I’m worried about the lack of signings compared to the outgoing players. Looks like at present we only have four outside backs in Salty, Crooks, Tibbs and McComb. The Lachlan issue needs sorting asap just so everyone can move on. Be a shame if our entire pre season was marred by is he or isn’t he going.

Still crickets then?

<chirp><chirp>...

Another resigning coming- only 2 possibles left and while I'm sure 90% would prefer it to be Maizen sounds likely to be Larroyer. If Maizen and Walmsley go would be great if we could get Briscoe from Fev - completely different sort of winger to Walmsley but one of the few who might come close to matching his try scoring.

Another retention today...FCS it's new blood we need not same old failings.

Battye joins Sheffield. Looks like we consolidate for next year and then hopefully Liam will refresh for 2025 .. I hope I am wrong and a few are coming on board.

It’ll be larroyer the destroyer of territory, looking forward to him giving a penalty way on the 4/5th tackle , yey !

It won’t be anyone new as it is a resigning

Worry not, as we will most likely be merging with League 1 therefore no relegation, and it's odds on Wakey will be swapping places with London at the end of next season so the Championship line up for 2025 is already known before a ball is kicked in 2024, therefore it matters not how strong (or weak!) our squad is.

Unless Leeds Saints Wigan and Wire deign to play the reserves in League one !
