[quote="Victor":wgieeatz]Let them believe that.. Our future does depend on the takeover however, whenever it comes. We can go forward from that point. I see we have signed a player from France. One out, one in.[/quote:wgieeatz] A try scoring back who is a kicker as well- sounds great!

[quote="BigTime":1gvmlmjg]Yes just what we needed so hopefully a good signing.[/quote:1gvmlmjg] We can but hope. I see what appear to be his previous clubs, Albi are currently top of Elite 1 & St Gaudans near the bottom. Let's hope he fancied a new challenge & not that he couldn't get a gig with them.

He also appears to not have played for either Skolars or Cornwall so there is that as well. We’re definitely fishing in a different pool this year but I think he’ll be an asset. Mind you I thought Latu and Juma would do a job so what do I know!* *This is untrue.

Assuming he plays, having him & the Aussie who can kick might make some difference. We can't afford to throw away conversions like we did last year.

Kicking has been an issue for some time as we know. We have frittered away too many points previously so let us hope that that will be a thing of the past.

Whare added a level of competency to the 2023 season but it’s not since Hankinson that we had someone that was top level. Not sure we’ll get to that level but it would be nice, should we score, that we have someone that can convert from attempts that are other than in front of the posts.
