Quote: Knocker_White "Yeah I wasn't quite sure who Mike was alluding to when he said that. Rhys is a free agent and might be interested in a year long deal, probably wouldn't cost us a huge amount in terms of a contract.
I liked Richards when he played for us, but he always seemed to be injured. Battye I think is all but signed up for Sheffield and I'm not sure Pitts would really bring us anything we don't already have. I certainly wouldn't want to see him signed at the expense of Natoli or Waine being extended if it came down to that.
I'd like to see Silva return, I thought he really added something when he came back as did Jones. Hopefully our new status makes us a more attractive proposition for our dual-reg partner.
Matt Davis not getting much of a look in at Leigh, maybe an option to bring him back in for the season and would certainly add something.'"
Yes. I can see Silva and Jones coming back. However whilst decent, not been regulars for their current SL teams so would need to step up and, whilst I might be maligning them from a misunderstanding of the loan system, they both seemed to do one from our squad ASAP to TO and Widnes? respectively which didn’t suggest to me a burning desire for a ‘homecoming’.
Davis would be excellent. If I was him though I think I’d stay at Leigh. He may not be a regular starter but he is a regular in the match day squad and it’s a squad that’s on the up so may want to stick around for the ride. Possibly mid season loan might be where it’s at if game time is in short supply.
