Now confirmed

Quality signing and we nearly had him before his move to Hull KR by all accounts. Certainly a big upgrade on Harris, Robinson, and Grix if we can keep him on the field. In Keyes and Joufrett we would potentially have our most exciting half back combination in nearly a decade.

Hopefully the extra speed and craft of Keyes/walmsley and Wood will help us get on the front foot more next season as there seems to be a dearth of the type of forwards we'd all like to see at the club.

Quality signing and in my view is good enough for Super League. Probably better than Harris as has that experience.
Not quite sure why we have been linked with other Half backs.

aston to announce
in todays papers.

Welcome aboard joe looking forward to seeing you play in 2022. Simon mentions that there is 10 new signings to announce that would cover the names mentioned on here and a few surprise ones too.

Liking this Terry...optimism abound.

Im not having any of this optimism/enthusiasm nonsense This is a RL Forum after all !!

Looks like "The Game Caller" has put his foot in it again! https://www.seriousaboutrl.com/oliver-r ... our-44233/

Was disappointed that Harris left as he had an impact when playing, but I do think we’ve upgraded with Keyes .

That brings the squad to 17 with another 9/10 coming in which will be a similar size squad to last year unless it’s fleshed out with some loanees .

I’m not sure jouffret is coming as the stronger rumours seem to be linked with Aston , I can’t see us having Aston Robinson Keyes and jouffret ( I hope I’m wrong )

Rumoured incomings are :

Lachlan walmsley , Brandon Douglas , Alex Walker , jouffret, Corey Aston , Kyle wood , joe arundal .

That leaves another 2/3 personally I’d rather have one of Aston or jouffret and have some more oomph in the forwards as I think that’s what’s needed plus another winger as we’ve lost rawsthorne and McGrath, although tibbs might get more game time .

Certainly going to be an interesting few weeks and I’d be interested to see who grixs’ starting 13 will be once all the signings are complete.

I don't get Aston. No improvement on what we have.

It's never nice losing players who've been committed to the club and have made a real contribution to past success - for this season I'd include Harris here - but most accept we can't afford a massive squad and that to bring in new quality players some of the existing squad have to go. The exception for me here has to be JWH, having had the chance of a run in his preferred position for the first time , he improved his defence and positional play, and became both a great link in a attack and someone who could bring the ball out from defence . Earlier in the season he looked for the first time like a potential superleague player - he should be coming into his prime now and along with Salty would be the only one I'd be absolutely gutted to see leaving.

My bad I meant foster not Walker
