Hopefully we can also find a hard as nails prop to complement the squad. A strike centre is what we have been lacking since Willie Talau and Paul Newlove. A organising Scrum Half is vital.

| I can't honestly see us signing anyone else. Where would the money come from to do that, presuming they really are spending up to the cap on this lot? Dixon will probably leave, potentially Gaskell and Foster as well. It would have to be a couple of really good players to better those two and according to many on here there are no players available anywhere in the world that could improve Saints.
In other news Hull KR have signed another quality NRL halfback for next season to go with their other one, which means Wigan can sign their second new halfback from Hull KR.

| Im sure there will be more departures announced in due course which will free up some much needed cash to strengthen areas of the side. Dixon is heading to Salford? Gaskell in my opinion should be first chioce 6 but whilst Hohaia is on the books I cant see that happening to be quite honest and could possibly be sent out on loan? The nonsense with Foster will come to a head when Brown takes charge unless its been done allready. I can honestly see him staying and given another chance if I honest. Ive also heard a rumour Josh Perry is heading home after the end of the season.......

Oh no, just as he's starting to actually perform. I wonder who we could get in replacement, as we'd need two props then, plus a halfback.

| problem is that we have Perry and Hohaia probably taking up 15% of the salary cap space between them. Perry is here for another 12 months, and Hohaia another 3 so unless either of those leave then we are stuck with the generally average squad we have now.
I would guess that the money spent on Shenton and Flannery has been given to Turner and Manu
anyone else who leaves, Foster, Dixon, Gaskell etc....will be on such low wages that there isn't the quality of player available to replace them with that will improve the squad substantially.

| Next year is going to be an interesting one. We need 3 things before we'll be ready to compete with Wire and Wigan:
1) A half back who can organise a game and kick a ball. He doesn't have to be flash. Just someone who can do the kind of job Paul Deacon did for Wigan in 2010.
2) A vicious forward. One who frightens people.
3) A threequarter with pace and footwork.
The likelihood of us getting all three is close to zero. Unless we can cut loose one of our current non-fed players we may well not get any one of them. If we can't get 1) then Gaskell has to play in the halves. He's far from the finished article, but at least he can kick. As for 2), who knows? Maybe Alex Walmsley fits the bill. It seems that Jordan Turner is the club's answer to 3). Hull fans are extremely dismissive of him, but I'll reserve judgement until he's had fair crack of the whip in the red vee.
