Probability a HB/FB and a couple of forwards would be my guess, but that’s all it is.
However I do think we are forgetting as MC pointed out, we have actually signed five players for the season already.
Bowden, Taufua, Butler we’re all signed for this season but arrived slightly early. None had a pre-season, they all played less than ten games and Butler in particular was never going to be fit for last season,
The above players actually replace almost man for man those who left, whether you think they are better or worse is your choice. Applegarth also stated he expects at least ten games from Eseh this season.
Come the start of the season we will have 30 players and they will be the right ones. No offence but you know squat compared to the coaching team and neither do I. They know what we need, they always do, despite what the touchline coaches think.
Whether they can make them work as a viable unit, only time will tell.
