Still a few free agents out there that might be worth a look and can do a job at SL level.

I liked Lovodua at FC. Never felt like they made the best use of him and ended up playing in every position accept his strongest for most of his time there.

Hampshire would maybe be interested in a move if he's looking to stay full time. Could be a handy option at 6 or FB cover for Alex.

A few of those blokes seem to have issues with injuries.

With pre season starting probably time to hear about new players and whether Norman, Butler, Whare and Parata are in or out.

On the other site suggestion that Albert was last year’ s best paid player. Also that Hughes wasn’t overly happy with performances. I can see the latter certainly earlier in the season but the former must surely be a scurrilous rumour. He came from a L1 side if I recall. If true may explain why a few senior players perhaps holding out for a wage increase. One assumes Kennedy has come in for Albert.

I won't be disappointed to see Albert go. To many loose carries and poor off-loading decisions.

Whilst I assume he would've been on a decent contract as an overseas and current international, I would be surprised if he had been our top earner, especially given he was essentially an interchange forward. Must have a cracking agent if true and maybe that's why Hughes was down on him.

As you say I thought his form to begin the season was decidedly average, but he did seem to pick up towards the back end. A lovely guy to speak with, but when Mike announced the 9 or so that were leaving, he was one of the first that came to mind.

Waine staying. Thought he might be one to go as well. Definitely made an impact in the games he played. We’ll see how he goes in SL.
Would like now though to hear about some experienced SL recruits. As is, all the retainees will do a job for us and will only get better as they have been teammates for quite a bit now and most of the new recruits know the club so should be good team cohesion BUT even so we are light on SL recruits and recreating the squad that finished 5th in the Championship is quite a gamble.

I wonder if we’ll retain any of the most recent crop of Academy step ups? Hoyes did well and I also wonder if any of the younger age group will stay. Harry Stevens stepped up so I wouldn’t be surprised to see them recruit him although where game time will come from who knows.

A bit of out of the blue, but got to say I'm pretty happy with this. Astute additions and in the case of Sheridan, some much needed SL coaching experience.

Excellent news especially acquisition of the ‘former Ryan Sheridan’ as Broncos Media have dubbed him.

If it doesn't work out with us, they can go back to driving, given they are joining the "coach team"
