Not 100% accurate, but close. Some factors are still involved

Ok, if true we are going to have a huge pack next year but also very athletic. And then we have some serious speed in the backs. Also Danny brough and gale will hopefully make a good partnership. Things are definitely looking good for next year. Getting excited

Things are certainly looking very positive down at the Sir Ken Davy stadium just now.The news about Kopczak & Gale would explain the sudden vexation of the RAB forum.

Where does this leave Fa'alogo & O'Donnell one wonders,they both have another season with us.

Ta'ai being Tongan born,I think exempts him from the o'seas quota.

Gale is a fairly skillful pivot from memory of his London days,not seen much of him recently though,but not the greatest defender.Loves the 'no look' pass that much I do remember.

Oh and despite any rumour to the contrary Danny (Danny) Brough is definitely staying right here at the SKD stadium next year.

Great news if you are right and if it means Fa'alogo and O'Donnell get pushed out that is a shame but I'd say well worth it getting those lads in, it is better hard decisions are being made by Anderson than him being low on options as everyone rushes to get out of the door and certainly things are on the up at last.

Anothony Mullally is a project similar to Eden but with a good pre season could force his way into contention.

Josh Johnson might surprise a few with another pre season

We are looking at 2 Bradford forwards i believe i know Kopkzak is one of them i do not know if they are both props or one is a 2nd rower as well. Wouldnt touch hargreaves/scruton/langley however bateman and whitehead are going to end up at hull or Warrington you cant help but feel.

I have also heard we are in talks with Steve Crossley after his good performances for Dewsbury after i mentioned it the other day, again 21 could be a project or a one year to prove himself.

We certainly are going to have a bigger pack next year for sure

Looks like both Faalogo and O Donnell will be going

Excellent news if true, looks like PA is going the route I kind of suspected in trying to rebuild a heavy pack.

Not sure how this is going to work with Fa'alogo and O'Donnell as they have one and two years left on their contract respectively.

scott taylor wont be coming anymore i dont think.

if signing these 3 players means we lose o'donnell and faalogo then so be it, we have been abit short changed with those two and its worth having a crack with others rather than see if they can string 5 games together again next season

We've seen this season that we cant have too many forwards, but you definately can have too few.

Maybe we will see the likes of Fa'alogo properly converting to prop, maybe O'Donnell too? that would give us a good choice of big props.

Hopefully that will leave LOD and Fa'alogo on their way. Very expensive bench players
