I’m more interested in who we’re bringing in rather than where he’s going?? We heard anything?? No matter how sheepish Rohan was there must be something lined up

I can’t see how we can have anything lined up, we can’t go overseas unless another player leaves and which English hooker could we get ?

Don’t think we’ll replace like for like. Personally think we need some pace and more competition in the back line. Let’s see….

Which English players are in the NRL but not playing regularly.

Gildart for Leeming?

Any thoughts on who you want, Shabs?

I don’t think it’s a 9 we will go for. But we need some pace and/or some organisation.

Who? I’m not sure but we deffo need the above

Leeming surely will be one of the better earners. Should free up some good cap space.

At this time of year and our overseas quota taken up the cap space might not be much use.

At least we're in a position where we won't have to pay overs on a long-term deal for someone out of desperation. There might be some value in signing another reserve hooker on a short-term deal, as we're down to the bones there now. I thought O'Connor might make a hooker before he was given a go there. I'm less convinced we can rely on Bentley having played there as a kid, which is something Smith has referenced a few times about other players, and I'm not sure it holds up in practice. Really though young Johnson needs to be given a crack. We need to find out once and for all whether he'll make it.

Our focus for next year must be about quality for the spine. It will be a bit annoying if we have to add hooker to that list as well. Leeming may not be a superstar (or as good as he thinks?) but with him in the squad it was the strongest spine position. Now that's looking shaky as well....

It will be interesting to see what we do. There doesn't seem to be many available pivots of the required quality at the moment, or any OOC. If we really want to strengthen then we may need to get the cheque book out.

Whilst he was ok, it's the most important position in the pitch. If he's not good enough then we should set out sights higher. It gives O'Connor and Johnson a chance to fulfill potential. We can look at hooker's and fullbacks for next year and see where we get to
