You can hand them over in a brown paper bag in the back of a taxi, if you can find a discreet enough driver who won't be tempted to tell everyone on the internet.

Where will we ever find such an individual?

I really shouldn't but

Maybe the McMeeken to us rumour isn’t as cut and dried as some thought. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby-le ... s-22240641

We still need another backrower don't we?

Currently we have Hughes & potentially Currie signed up for next year, we will need a BMM replacement from the back row won't we? Ideally Josh Jones, but it seems to have gone quiet on that front.

We still have backrowers aplenty, even after BMM's departure. It's in the front row where we have bare minimum cover.

Based on known signings / existing players in contract negotiations, the back row might be Currie and King at SR with Hughes at LF. Inglis and Ratchford at centre (I'm assuming that Gelling has dissappeared for good) with Ashton at FB.

Do we? Back row I mean

Currently we have a back row of Hughes signed up, that's about it.

J Clark, Currie, Davis all yet to sign new deals officially, even if they all sign I think we are a back rower short. Ideally we have Hughes at 13 spelled by Clark or someone new off the bench. Currie in the backrow with Josh Jones then Davis in reserve. I'm not sure if we have options in the academy that could replace Clark / Davis...? We need at least 5 backrowers in the squad for me; 3 on the pitch, one on the bench and one in reserve plus academy prospects.

Props we have signed up Hill, Cooper, Philbin, Sita, Latu with potentially Butler from London. There's a lot of money tied up there, I can't see us signing anyone else unless someone leaves, which you would think would be expensive. I'm open to swapping Latu for David Fifita though...

Exactly.

For some reason, ppl think we still do have loads of backrowers like 4 years ago.

We started last season with Toby in the back row.

Which David Fafita? The one at Brisbane would do me.

Well I meant the one at Wakey, but I’d gladly take either!

Jason Clark is bolted-on, no way he will leave given how influential he was in signing his mate GI. We have Hughes on contract and King plays there. If you can count the unsigned Butler in the props, you can count Currie and Davis in the back row. Ellis Robson has been pushing for a spot there and will figure more in 2021. So that's five back rowers v five props: there is no chance Latu will be back in 2020.
