Can't see McGowan being recalled, Giants have plenty of cover there.

Hooker is a worry. If anything happens to Souter then it's Hallas and Flanagan we're going with which will be a disaster.

Some nice worked tries for the wingers on Sunday which is pleasing and shows how we're hoping to play.

Goal-kicking is still a massive concern, we shouldn't be experimenting. Go with Lilley who we know will play every game and let him get as much practice in as possible.

Then what happens if he gets injured loses form or has an illness?? You still need other Players to be able to back up and they are the ones that need the goal kicking match practice even more than Lilly.

We need a full back, a ball playing loose forward and another mean prop imho,
Quality Half back cover would be good too, why we got rid of Lawford who could have been our next "Deacon" would have been super/

Agreed on that especially the type of player at Loose Forward. Yeah not sure why Lawford didn't get more opportunities, strange one, but definitely a loss him going to Wakefield.

We didn't 'get rid' of Lawford. He was offered an improved deal and still chose Wakefield over us.

There's also very little point in spending big on the playing squad when even finishing top wouldn't see us in SL next year. Until we sort the stadium out, we're going nowhere regardless of how the team performs.
