No, it's his brother who has left I'm looking forward to a quality young talent coming in for a centre who is unhappy at the club and has made no secret of his desire to leave for the NRL.

But you pose a good question regarding how this signing strengthens the squad. Surely the best one to answer this will be Rick Stone himself - perhaps you could drop him a line? If you do, would you be so kind as to relay his answer to us?

I'm with you on that one.
Nathan Brown and Paul Anderson were both guilty of it.

Jon Sharp, who's hand was pretty much forced on bringing in Cudjoe and Lawrence, due to our depth of squad really paid off. Give players enough experience and they can grow to be international class with a heart of claret and gold.

its ok bringing in the youngsters , but they cant all come in at the same time like last season due to injuries and having a small squad it didnt work and having to play too many games and losing is no good for the confidence

we need better luck with injuries next season, same for every club if the injuries hit they will struggle.. more so if you have a small squad like us

Yep. I'm hoping the likes of Wood and Macintosh can have a few back to back games during the season without it being because there is nobody else.

It would obviously be easier if we were getting some good results and not fighting to avoid the bottom 4!

they may get their chance in the two warm up games, their chance to impress!
