And now one of the coaching positions is filled with Rhys Lovegrove supporting Mikey. What the eff is going on ?

At least he is familiar with club having played in our first championship campaign in 2015.

All very odd. Have we got Wembley fever? All positive though, albeit late in the day.

Maybe Hughes has had a nod from IMG and been told he needs to make things less of a ing shambles.

All true DC and Buzz was referring to the North South and West stands when he spoke of ‘magnificent desolation’.

If IMG have given anything to Hughes, let's hope it's directions to the door!

Whole bunch of loanees brought in today.

Jacob Gannon (prop) on loan from Leigh Leopards for 1 month - also recently been on loan to Halifax
Kyle Evans (wing) on loan from Featherstone Rovers for 2 weeks - aging ex union player who played for Wales in RLWC
Harvey Makin (prop) and Kieran Tryer (half back) both on dual registration from Wigan Warrior - must come as a pair because were both at Oldham ealier in season

Hearing you have made a play for matty fozzard for next season

He was very well thought of here and by management as well but I think he comes from Widnes and I think his abortive move to Ottawa, who I think were due to play out of Widnes, and then to Widnes itself the following season when we went PT suggests as he got into his later 20s he was looking to move back home. We’re definitely a more attractive option rugby wise than last season but for someone looking to settle down etc London prices, especially housing, comes into play. But it’s possible he has something work wise lined up down south. Is so great all around (for us).

Find this an odd signing to be linked with tbh. Whilst I don't think we are in a position to turn anyone down and he'd bring some good experience, hooker isn't exactly a position we currently have a depth issue with. Unless Dean is heading out the door, which would be a massive loss.

I hope not, he's been one of our best, and most consistent performers.
However he may have been spotted by an SL club..........

Agreed, he's been fantastic for us.

Would probably suit that back-up/interchange hooker at SL level quite well. Not sure how much SL interest there has been in him previously, but he's certainly coming off the back of two very strong seasons for us. He's 31 now so maybe that ship has sailed and he has other priorities.

Dean's been playing loose forward this season.
He's a property developer outside of RL, probably making more money doing that than he could make in SL.

Has alternated between both positions this season, but yeah I get your point. I thought I'd read somewhere he was a PT, but either way I hope he's the next one we sign up.
