Quote Mighty Wires="Mighty Wires"Wouldn't mind Wild or Purdham.
Although we would need a bring in a quality centre to replace Gleeson, as you don't get many centres as good as Gleeson in SL. We'd miss him.
And Although Lockyer would be great signing, he won't be here in SL for 3 or 4 years, he'd be more of a stop gap rather than replacing Briers. I'd like to us aim for a younger/promising player to enable him to blend into the squad, (as we did with Briers) i think thats what you need in such as pivotal position. You can't to sign a player these days and expect him to settle in straight away.'"
The thing that worries me about our right hand side is that within 2 years we could lose Gleeson, Briers and probably Hicks.
Gleeson will be a big loss, but if we have Briers then it isn;t as big a loss, as Briers deserves a lot of credit for putting players into space out wide with his crisp passing. We were always strong with Grose and Smyth on the right, and I believe much of it was down to Briers.
Shenton was the last right sided centre which genuinely impressed me in this country. He ripped King to pieces last year at our place. I haven't seen that much of him tbh so I don't know if that's his regular standard, but he certainly has potential.
I like some of the other names mentioned here too for other British players:
LMS, Wild, Purdham, Westerman, it may also be worth keeping an eye on Myler at Salford.
