Grayston and walshaw are the 2 quality youngsters we have at the club.. and i think they should both feature in some super league action next year, mathers has done a half decent job this year and assuming grayston could learn bits from him, aka positional sense and put it together with his pace and strength he could be a very good player. walshaw should definately be coming off the bench in most games next year, hes a strong running lad who could easily cause teams problems out wide. oh and another thing, lee smith out- step backwards.

Agree, much rather have Fox than Foster, I don't rate him one bit.

Having lost Johnson, spires as you say and James ooc? (sure he only signed a year) that is 3 props down and we were one short anyway.

Kirke - would be a direct replacement for Johnson and add the solidarity PJ did but the size he didn't.

A.N.Other - hoping for a quality prop here who can offload and break the line. Big ask to find and should be the big name signing ideally. Think Manukafoa at bulls could be tempted.


James - Thought he showed up well in the games he did feature this year so would retain.

Wing for me is not an issue, foxy and Ben are the catalyst in getting our attack on the front foot early in the tackle count. Long may that continue.

Be tempted to look at a quality centre and move smith to full back. That Lulia from bulls might be worth a look too.

Spending any sizable amount of cap space on wingers would be a waste. They aren't perfect but probably the right balance between cost and effectiveness in what is a peripheral position

Matt James signed a two year deal.

I stand corrected, hopefully will contribute more after another full time pre-season.
