Hopefully not more than enough quality in the forwards also know for a fact club dont want to go down loan route

No, he’s SL quality and will be in the HKR 17

I’m optimistic that once he’s fully fit Bayliss Brow could fill Doro’s shoes. Fitness is key for Nathan Mason too, he looked really good when he was on his loan spell with us in 2023 but has looked well short of fitness when he re-joined in 2024. He needs a big pre-season. Meadows has apparently played a bit of fullback so could cover for Holmes there if needed. Think the signing of Donaldson is v important. We miss the leadership of the likes of Lawrence and Smith sometimes and with them missing a few games with injury we needed to address that. Donaldson is a leader and pretty durable so should be a lynchpin in the side. His display at Fax in 2023 was really good when he was the best forward on the field.

Mason Corbett signed. Leeds Academy hooker. Let go by Leeds at the end of the season.

Latest Squad for 2025 - another winger needed IMO.

Tom Holmes
Billy Jowitt

Jorge Taufua
Jayden Okunbor

Guy Armitage
Kieron Gill
Jayden Myers

Joe Keyes
Jordan Lilley
James Meadows
Sam Ackroyd

Mich Souter
Tyran Ott
Mason Corbett

Michael Lawrence
Ronan Michael
Ebon Scurr
Nathan Mason
Logan Bayliss Brow
Franklin Pele
Dan Smith
Jamie Gill

Emmanuel Waine
Matty Gee
James Donaldson
Eliot Peposhi
Jacob Bateman

Kevan Appo
Sam Hallas

Please just play Jordan interchange hooker with Souter

I'm guessing that Myers/Armitage can slide to wing if needed, especially if the club sign Waqa Blake as is being touted.

Blake played a fair bit of wing too. If he signs I'd say we have a complete squad for now.

Myers will be missing for the first 4 games due to his ban so could do with a bit of cover there for the early part of the season although friendly games will count towards it.

Happy to be proven wrong but ive heard negotiations with blake have broken down

May have dodged one there if true.As olpherts signed for anyone yet he scored a lot of tries for wakey last season.

Liam Tindall released by Hull, if I recall he scored a fair few tries whilst on loan with us. Worth a look?

Jack Walker released as well. Wonder if we are interested in bringing either of them back to Odsal.

I guess it depends on what Nobby wants and how much it'll cost. Either way it's quite a squad we've put together. Hopefully they'll look as good on the pitch as they do on paper.
