I still think we have a good chance of signing Rhyse Martin who with his versality would be an excellent acquisition and not count as quota beyond 2025. It has been confirmed that he is leaving Leeds and though he has been linked with Hull KR, their coach Willie Peters, on the Total Rugby League web, site is quoted as saying, ‘if we do bring Rhyse in, then we will announce it.’ Interestingly, I think Rhyse has the same agent as Lachlan Lam.

Would not surprise me if Rhys Martin has signed for us.

Seems robins have made room for him.woudnt mind him used to league and beer touch of class yard of pace top goalkicker lot to like how much

Wow! Bongser has no idea what the above means, but feels like it may be very insightful.
Keep 'em coming SM

Sivo named on the wing for Eels against Broncos this weekend.

I saw nothing in Sivo that said let’s get him signed. He scored a walk over try, but looked very unsure under the high ball. Sailor had a good game at full back for the Broncos and scored a good try, were I thought Sivo could have done more to prevent him scoring. Sivo seems slow for a winger. More of a battering ram.

If we are looking for a winger, what about Jon Bennison at Saints. He’s out of contract at end of season. What I have seen of him, he looked quite handy and he can play full back if necessary. What are your thoughts Leythers.

I would certainly have a punt on him. He's young, fast and probably won't cost us much in terms of cap space.

It would surprise me…

sooner have a class centre to feed hanley

On the centre position I think that we are already covered. Lammy has made it quite clear that he sees Hanley as one of our current first team centres - not a winger. He is repeatedly saying how well both he and McIntosh play well together on our right edge.

We have reportedly signed for next season Tesi Nui who is a centre who plays wing.

Bailey Hodgson, who we not yet seen play, covers full back and wing and whom the club made a great deal of play of in the announcement of his signing that he also plays centre.

Add to the above Keanan Brand who never puts a foot wrong - apart from his comical howler at Barrow 2 seasons ago. Lammy always makes a point of singing his praises and clearly rates him.

I make that 4 centres for next season

To use 2 quota spots on centres sounds a bit wasteful and I don't think is going to happen. There could of course be an announcement of another British qualified centre signing but it seems likely that the remaining available overseas quota spots are going elsewhere in the team. The consensus appears to be both a number 13 and a second rower, one of whom I am really hoping for will be Issac Liu. The Iceman cometh - I hope.

Pretty much a done deal at KR. That's why they are releasing Opacic.

They seem to have a knack for getting out of contracts with overseas players, they managed to get rid of Rhys Kennedy last year, despite him having a contract for this season, so they could sign Tanginoa.

I’d be keeping an eye on the Wigan situation they are reportedly having cap issues for next year with all the youngsters upgrading.
I’d definitely be looking at one of their young British props like Liam Byrne however Salford always seem to pick their players up, apparently Zak Eckersley may need to make way and he’s a class out and out young British centre. Id also enquire about Taiki Chan as a wide running back row, he seems to have fallen out of favour and is young, none quota and a big strong runner being used as a prop. I really hope we stock up on props we always seem to be too lean on that area and they win you games.

We seem to have decided on Niu as the Leutele replacement. If Eckersley was going to be available, I'd much rather have him and use a quota spot on another prop. Be surprised if he wasn't at Wigan next year though.
