Dont often post, but have to on this News. I think I'll pick and choose my games next year rather than re-new the season ticket.

Yes I'll go along with the budget restraints of the Salary cap but the facts are there to see, Saints are no longer fun to watch and those 3 resignings dont offer any hope of that changing next year.

Utterly Underwhelming.

I could rant and rave about this but our recruitment for the last 5 years has been awful.

If Wellos on 50K then he effectively costs us nothing on the cap. I would like to see him as Club Captain and Roby to Captain.

Melis done enough for another year and like for like harder to replace.

Clough is part of a bottleneck of average forwards we have. Hopefully brown can rediscover something.

Does any of these signings take us forward. NO

If anything they hold us back.

If Wello is on £50k, he's costing us £50k. Roby and Gardner are both eligible for the £50k exemption, so that's no excuse.

Have I been watching a different Clough this season? He does the hard work. Not every prop can be Paul Gallen.

He's made more yards than any of our other props/2nd rows excluding LMS, and he's done so with generally less game time and carries.

Every team needs a player like Clough, he is top class at what he does - making metres.

Every club does need this type of player but he's to quite for me.

What else would you like him to do?

Can somebody check the rule book, and see if loudhailers are allowed on the pitch.

Maybe a running commentary?

I think he could put himself about more in defence. At times I forget he's on the fieid but when he does get involved he makes good meters.

I just feel if he got more involved, put himself about more that he could possibly push for a England shirt.
