'In spite of the user name I'm confused, 'your' That was a typo, I am hopefully getting a season ticket my 3rd in 4 years so I can have an opinion
Poptart said ' I like Clough and Baille but what makes you think we are not looking at better' we can't be looking at too many players has I think we could only have cap room for one or two more players after Tim Smith, those two players should be getting the same amount as Ashurst would. I'm just making the point that those two would be good squad members adding some depth to the back row I think has been missing over the past few years.

Playing Union for either London Irish or London Welsh.
I think we are short of a full back, centre and another prop. Most SL teams seem to have 6 props in their squad. We've got 5 and 4 of them will be in the 17 every week unless injured/suspended.

How have we lacked depth in the back row the past few years? If anything we have had an abundance of back rowers. 2010 onwards we've had JD, Hendo, Morrison, Ferguson, Mariano, Howarth, Molloy, Kirmond, Lauitiiti, Mellars, Southern, Washbrook, Walshaw, Annakin, Trout. Next year we will have Kirmond, Lautiiti, Ashurst, Washbrook, Annakin, Molloy. No shortage there. The two places I can see us lacking next year is in the 3/4 line.
Just looking at that list there is 9 players who weren't up to scratch, played out of position or wasted. Southern was wasted at prop why play a player who played his career in the 2nd row at prop? Mellars what a waste of cap room, Ferguson, Molloy Walshaw, Trout haven't been used right and the biggest waste is/was how Mariano and Annakin have worked out. I know that Mariano left to go to Cas for more money but he really impressed, Annakin I think has been one of the best young forwards I've seen down at Wakey but he needs game time and the signing of Ashurst just puts him further back down the pecking order and games at Fev although good for fitness won't give him the right physical workout that Superleague would.
I do agree with the later comment about lack of depth in the 3/4's Riley and Owen have now competition for places, I don't believe that Webster is going to risk the youngsters next year so they have no pressure on them. Also we really NEED a full-back and cover half (someone how can come in and do a job for us at 6 or 7, not Skeija)

| I disagree about Fev, they are going have to be SL standard next year to compete in the middle 8

I agree, the competition in the second tier next year will be a massive step up from what it has been.
Although I can see Fev struggling to finish in the top 4 next season.
