A young, nubile semi professional in a team of part timers against a highly decorated long serving pro, in a full time team. Not the fairest of comparisons

Harsh to judge someone on their performance against Blake Ferguson as a 19 year old. But we could do with a winger that can get us on the front foot early in sets. Not sure McIntosh gives us that, and given our kicking game is likely to be lacking again next year, and we're losing key forwards, it will be needed even more.

Based on reports, rumours etc, could be looking at this:
Backs - Armstrong, Charnley, Niu, Hanley, McIntosh, Hodgson, Brand, Towse
Half backs - Lam, Moylan, O'Brien, McNamara
Props / loose forwards - Pene, Mulhern, Trout, Hughes (since move this year), Norman, Brogan, Davis, Liu
Second row - Halton, Condon (all i've seen on that is a post on this forum though), Brad Martin
Hooker - Ipape, Dwyer (plus Davis and McNamara)
That would give us 25. Chester is quoted as saying that there's 33 signed up for next season. Don't know if the other 8 would be new signings, promotions from reserves or a mix of the two. But I'd say we need a prop to be ahead of Norman and Brogan in the pecking order, and another second row.
Group of backs is starting to look a lot younger. That could be a good or a bad thing.

We were also inked with 2 NRL wingers, Sivo and one other that I can’t remember, so we may have picked up one of those

Tesi Nui was the other and it appears we've gone for him rather than Sivo according to press reports.
Going off press reports, the confirmed outgoing list and the odd hunch(I reckon Luis Roberts will be back next year to replace Nisbet), this is where i think we're at with 4 still unconfirmed from the 33 Chester mentioned in my list:
1 David Armstrong*
2 Umyla Hanley
3 Darnell McIntosh
4 Tesi Nui*
5 Josh Charnley
6 Matt Moylan*
7 Lachlan Lam
8 Aaron Pene*
9 Edwin Ipape*
10 Rob Mulhern
11 QUOTA TBC*
12 Frankie Halton
13 Isaac Liu*
14 Brad Dwyer
15 Owen Trout
16 Matt Davis
17 Jack Hughes
18 Gaz O'Brien
19 Ben McNamara
20 Keanan Brand
21 Brad Martin
22 Louis Brogan
23 Luis Roberts
24 Dan Norman
25 Nathan Wilde
26 Bailey Hodgson
27 AJ Towse
28 Jack Derbyshire
29 Kavan Rothwell
30 Andy Badrock
31 TBC
32 TBC
33 TBC
I think of the 3 non-quota TBC we need at least 2 forwards and at least one of them should be an experienced, front line one to be pushing into the 17 | | | |

Can anyone on here please find me any article or report linking us with AJ Towse - I would be extremely grateful.
I'm interested to see who exactly has said that he is signing for us. Ta.

QLD Cup Grand Final Norths Devils v Redcllffe.
Tesi Nui has scored twice in the opening 18 minutes for Norths Devils.
Norths Devils win 34 - 20
Tesi Nui gets MOM.

In belated reply to BigTimeLeyther’s post (foot of page 9 of this thread):
Dunno, but there have been a couple of head-scratchers recently. One such is the club’s announcement of their expectation of the upcoming release of IMG’s club by club ratings (15.24) and, therefrom, rankings. The season is not over - we are in the play-offs. There are therefore rating points still to be gathered or lost.
At least there are according to pages 17 & 59 of IMG’s Handbook:
https://www.rugby-league.com/uploads/do ... %20Version).pdf
Leigh’s (three year average) League Rating as of October last year (2021 (relegation year) 12th, 2022 (promotion year) 13th & 2023 5th) was 3.0004. That, however, was bolstered by a (one season only) bonus of 0.25pts for winning The Challenge Cup - 3.2504pts).
This season, Leigh enter the play-offs in 5th after the scheduled 27 rounds.
Should Leigh lose on Friday and Saints win the following day, Leigh would be placed 6th by IMG for a 3 year average of 3.2222 (and no bonus); a drop of 0.0282.
Should both above-mentioned teams lose at the weekend, Leigh would retain fifth place: 3.2593 - thereby offsetting the loss of our CCup holders’ bonus with a gnat’s wotsit to spare
Were Leigh to beat Salford on Friday, we would be guaranteed 4th - 3.2963.
THE POINT IS that the “minor tweak” (that should NOT happen mid-season!!) may be merely to rate on placings after 27 rounds.
We’ll see. |

Another possibility: the club by club scores were based on 36 being in the top three echelons. There are only 35 now. An according adjustment of the scores out of a maximum score for this area would see ALL remaining clubs get slightly more points - the gap place on place, however, would increase infinitessimally.
That, for Bongser, would be an excusable mid-season tweak.
