He would be a great signing , unfortunately this would signal the loss of one of Monas M, Mickey H or Brad Dywer

Clarke and Higham one more year, with Dwyer probably a year off the Wire first team.
M.Monas to be released

We need props though

Carvell, Morley, Cooper...rumours of Wood going that's some loss up front.

I can't get my head around them not moving mountains to keep Riley. Trust me on this, props are in very short supply in the youth game.

Where is Paul Wood rumoured to be going?
I know that Bradford are rumoured to be after Carvell, I'd take Wood too tbh.

I'd like Tim Smith and Daryl Clark

sign a Hooker, 2 props, a stand off and a centre

Don't need a Centre, we've got Ratch, Ryan & Bridge . All 3 are Class.

Rhys Evans & Grix also... not a position we need to strengthen in.

yeah I forgot those.
Centre is sorted

ryan maybe off, rhys is injured lots, grix may get a permanant role at 13 if harrison moves up to prop full time.

Hopefully Blythe, Ben Evans, Dwyer and Mendeika will return to us at the end of the season. Think we'll see less new signings than departures.

Ratchford at FB next season, guessing briers will retire, so we need a stand off, atkins is off (maybe) grix to loose, bridge and evans are always injured, medieka isnt good enough yet..harrison to prop sign another prop and hooker

Problem at youth level is that lads who are seen as big/strong for their age at at 16 very rarely keep growing at the same rate to full maturity. I had this discussion with coaches about one of Wire's current youth props who is a fantastic reader of the game in play, but based on his parents/grandparents I'd say wont get much bigger than he is now - don't get me wrong, he's not small, and is already strong as an ox and deceptively quick, so I actually think he'll end up being perfect as a destructive attacking centre in SL ......

I assumed Riley was doing a Mossop and would come back to us in couple of years time. Next year we might well have Ben Evans as our young prop alongside Harrison, Hill, Wood (he's rumoured to be leaving every year) and maybe even Morley. Carvell does look to be on his way though.
