Top six 2005 - Trinity.:



Quote: Kirmudgeonlyisback "Having just watched the London game was very impressed with Rourke , now storton is confirmed and if you add in the other strongly rumoured or confirmed signings we seem to be building nicely “


Full backs max and Rourke
Wingers Johnson walmsley possibly olpherts

Halves Russel , Truman Lino lawford

Front row mckmeeken , atoni , uele , Bain vagana

Hookers parcell doyle smith

Back row rodwell Storton pitts griffin ?

Russel possibly and an overseas berth starting to feel very positive about our sl return

With at least'"


You’ve added in a few you’d like to see but from what I can see currently we stand at the below.

Here you go:

Fullback
Jowitt
Rourke (rumoured)

Wing
Johnstone
Walmsley

Centre
Pratt
Hall
Croft
Booth

Halfback
Lino
Russell
Lawford
Truman (rumoured)

Props
Mckmeeken
Atoni
Rodwell
Uele
Vagana
Bain

Hooker
Doyle
Smith

Second row
Storton
Scott

Loose forward
Cozza

We only have 21 signed next season. Though I’m unsure about a couple of younger players.

It’s clear where the gaps are.

Second row, loose and hooked are 3 x positions we need strong signings in.

Personally I’d look at Bienek from London for a year or two as impact prop and play Bain at 13 with Pitts and Cozza.

I like Parcell and for 2 years think he would be a quality addition! If not I wouldn’t be against looking abroad for a quality 9. Judah Rhimbu PNG number 9 would be worth a look on edge of NRL.

Otherwise it’s clear we need a couple of edge forwards and I feel if we are to make a big signing it would be worth it here. Not sure there’s many about though.

As for wing - I think Booth can play there if required and if we sign Rourke he looks like he’d be an option too.

I’m expecting the club to announce Olpherts at some point but personally I don’t think he’s SL level and has at the tail end of his career found his place in this league. Whoever was on the left this season has scored tons from the space created from pivots. I like Olpherts but I’m sure he will get a contract at a good championship club like a few others should they wish.

Quote: Trojan Horse "Very harsh to attribute that to his position he’s playing.

I’d say it’s far more to do with his first game in 3 months and doing the full 80.

As for Leeds, the ref really offered Leeds a silver platter and front foot in that one.

Bentley gets up walks two steps pushing a Catalan player and ref waves 6 again to Leeds not for first time and not for first time. Catalan were snuffed out of that and weren’t allowed to generate any ruck speed.'"

I agree with both of you, he was blowing out of his proverbial in those last 10 minutes and as you say it's his first game in a few months, so it's expected you're not gonna get a 100% McMeekan. I also agree with Poptart's point about the amount of involvement he has playing at SR. When he plays at Prop imo he's far more involved and he's such a big guy now he tires defences out when he's constantly taking hit-ups and making big meters, which were few and far between tonight with him being wider. Tbf If Catalans had been leading they'd have probably subbed him, but to say it was his first game in 3 months it's impressive he can still play the full 80, especially when that second half was just defensive work from them, with Leeds just putting them under pressure all half.

Also, agree about the reffing, particularly in that second half, he seemed influenced by the crowd and none of the 50/50 calls didn't go the Catalan way.

Top six 2005 - Trinity.:



Quote: PopTart "I actually said his lack of involvement was partly to do with first game back.

But if you are going to get tired, you have more protection in the middle.

No matter what the reason, they targeted him twice and he missed both times which gave away 2 tries.

I prefer him in the middle. Just my opinion.'"


Maybe so, be interesting to see how he will go over the next few games once his match fitness gets back up. He’s certainly a big minute player wherever he plays which is good.

When Rodwell came back from injury his fitness seemed to have dipped alarmingly and he’s a young guy. Some players struggle more than others regaing fitness. However to judge a player on his first game back regardless of position is imo wrong.

I'm not judging him on that one game, I'm judging him off the times I've seen him play SR compared tp prop, plus I mentioned it was his first game back after 3 months off a few times and he did well to get through the full 80. Anyway, I've said before that I prefer him and think he has more impact as a Prop nowadays than SR. The Catalans seem to prefer him there because that's only about the 3rd time I've seen him at SR all season.

True, Rodwell first few games back he clearly lacked match fitness. Look at him now though back to being a machine.

I can’t wait to see him in a trin shirt next season.

As for Storton. He will be a good signing. Playing his part in KR’s success and another solid game from him today.
