It had better be a rough tough aussie prop. Anything else and we are going the way of bradford.

hes your conditioner for next year

I agree KC can't play prop. Maybe few years back he could but not now. Not a chance in hell he could play prop now.

He struggles to play a hour in two spells. He couldn't do the hard drives anymore. Kc is either better to retire or play as bit part hooker.

If your gonna get an good aussie prop you are leaving it a bit late!! All the first tear players have or would have wanted deals done already, the second tear signings have already been done too so it doesn't look good for you guys! If say an aussie international luke bailey type forward was coming the deal would have been done

Matt James is out of contract at Bradford he would make a good squad player.

Jimmy Lyon? Plucked straight from the farm, get in there.

yip.

Saints are believed to be speaking to a number of overseas forwards with Luke Bailey being strongly rumoured. Whether KC re-signs will obviously impact on who are able to get in under the cap.

Given weve replaced Gilmour with Soliola and Longy with Scott Moore, and Cayless returning home if KC signs then we will be shopping in SL.
I would take LMS not sure if hes under contract, or look at an impact player say a Ferriol at the Catalans.

Whatever. Your maths is questionable.

Gilmour for Soliola is about equal, perhaps the new boy on a tad more.
Longy for Scott Moore will be a ridiculous mis match. Moore is still on the deal he signed years ago before he was a proper SL player so won't be on any sort of wedge compared to Longy who will have been the top earner at the club.
Cayless going is a whole overseas salary in itself and KC will be signing for a whole lot less if he stays for one more year.

There have been contract renewals for a lot of the kids but we should have room for at least one massive sigining.

The kids contracts are quite expensive. They surprised me when i heard how much some of them are on.

If thats true we've made a mistake as very few of them are going to amount to anything.

I've heard the same. One more in, maybe two.

I'd agree with that. Plus we let about 6 players over last 2 years and only brought 1 player in.

I'd agree with this, if we're near salary cap with cayless and longy off, KC on reduced deal, let alone No Fozzard/Scully/Baloo/Bennet, etc out and only TP in, i'd be very dissapointed!
