If Sutton, Whitehead, Cooper can start every week Thompson will have no trouble. A couple of strong runs and the Aussies will love him.

I think he’ll do well but I’m surprised he chose the Dogs. They’re not in good shape

Can’t see him ever been as good as Napa.

He'll probably play more at 13 anyway.

Anthony Don is being offered to SL clubs next year. He's good mates with Hurrell, and Briscoe may leave but Don would be a very underwhelming replacement.

I don’t think there will be any big/exciting signings for us next season. I reckon it will be a year (at least) of consolidation and recovery for the business from this whole episode. I expect more of the youth to get a chance.....which is by no means a bad thing.

Agree on all counts.

So do we think we'll sign a replacement for Ward (Greenwood), or give Walters a chance?

Weve a lot of back rowers as it is.

Dwyer being linked with Wigan also.

If Myler, Cuthbertson and seems likely now Ward all leave, I would hope we keep Dwyer, think his attitude and energy are becoming increasingly important.
