| Quote: KaeruJim "Yep this. It's not all about size in those early carries, it's targeting weaker spots in the line with pace and while the opposition line isn't fully formed, and then heavy artillery comes in.
I am looking forward to this year but I think next year could be really exciting. If we make a few calls and release some cap, we really should have the opportunity to fine tune this team to make it into a real contender. Must make the right steps in next signings but the youth system is obviously producing - was great to see the camaraderie of the young lads against Bradford again.'"
We seem to be saying ‘next year’ every year!

| I think there is a lot of overhype about Sinfield Jr. There is certainly potential, but I haven't seen anything to suggest that he is ready to start as the first-choice half-back. If he didn't have the surname he has, then I don't think there would be half as much clamour for him to be in the team.
What are your thoughts? Do you think he's being pushed too quickly, or do you believe he's ready to step up?

| I don't think it can be said that Jack has been pushed too quickly. He has only made two appearances all year. I think the club is doing the right thing with him I don't think he is ready for SL week in and week out.
Hopefully, he will be in the 17 against London.

| Agree with lots above. Bit of an out of body experience.
It's highly likely Fus will be moved on, but if he does by miracle stay fit the rest of this year and play into form, and he'll take sensible money to stay, I wouldn't be surprised if we offered him another year depending on who else is available, if Martin goes etc. It's likely we will need at least 2 quota spots in reality though to fix our immediate problems.
Again if we can sign Eseh, and assuming we have Hudson and one or two other fit and more ready to play SL, we could probably sign just one really good prop who's at the Mik+ level and we'd be different gravy up front. One big back rower to partner workhorse McDonnell, and some more pressure on Smith with the likes of Gannon.. I think we have issues in the centres still - elephant in the room again is Newman, he's not been great again this season. Mom has some time but he hasn't blown my socks off either.

And there we go, back in body again...
I didn't say we should, I said I wouldn't necessarily be surprised if the club did.
