We've signed a fulback got a winger on loan a second rower on loan a hooker on loan where's the No 6 we desperately need

1 by getting those it frees Smith up to play
2 there are no stand offs available as far as I can see.

Going back to the 5-2 swap deal with Leeds,we absolutely stuffed them,and everybody knew it.Spencer was a very good player but lacked a yard of pace.We couldn't believe it, a bit like now with with the CH fiasco.

We've got a number 6, he just couldn't play last week due to injury.

Smith and Lino have the makings of a decent little partnership, not world beating but enough to guide a team around the park. It's no coincidence that our best game was against Salford with those two paired.

Gary Spencer’s performances from Full Back at Leeds Kept Andrew Ettingshausen on the wing until he went to the Coach and threatened to go home unless he got the No1 shirt

Well good for Gary Spencer!

In the days of solomona Sam Obst semi kotkidas ectwe erred always near the bottom of the league but these players were always a joy to watch and gave us great wins I'm afraid players in the team give us nothing not even hope

4-2 swap deal

Fox, Mason, Conway and Raine I think.

Just listened to the podcast featuring both KR and Trinity Chairmen discussing the deal in detail.

KR suggested we instigated the contact although not confirmed by Mr Carter.

The rest is pretty much as expected.

We had to look short term to secure a player that could play at fullback.

Every decision at the moment is a short term decision because it is all about survival in 2023.

Impossible to plan long term with the threat of relegation. Contract extensions offered to players at the club but all have stalled because of the lack of security due to our position.

My main take away though was that Mr Carter insinuated another such deal may be on the horizon which will see a player leave and a middle join.

Yep and if it's the rumour going round it is likely to go down just as well as the last one.
