Why sign a full back when our best player this year is a full back?

He hasn’t played so how do we know yet. Also he’s more of a 13 who can play prop with hands than a prop.

The club signed him for 2 years because they saw potential in him. He should have the opportunity to show that in the coming months.

The quota isn’t the ultimate blocker you make out but we are at full quota for next season with 20+ games left to play. That is a fact. Should we wish to release a player from quota I’m sure that’s because the club have secured a player of high quality on that position.

Improved them? Wasn’t he the full back in the 4-60 thrashing by a 12 man Saints side?

We have an excellent young FB coming through in Noah Booth. I reckon you will see him figure in a few games later on in the season, especially if we take top spot with games to spare.

If we are interested, I suspect it will be to take over at 6 as Gale is retiring.

Adam Doueihi is being offered to Super league clubs. Coming back from an ACL injury but is a terrific centre/ stand off.

Coming back from his third acl injury, played 57 times in four and a half seasons, was earning $400,000 a year, has been offered a one year deal worth one fifth of this by the West Tigers

Not for me, very talented yes, but a big risk and a big price tag.

He hasn’t played so how do we know yet.

He played last week in the reserves and looked to have a great pair of hands to link the attack and a decent offload. He looks to be a different style of forward to the others and pretty sure he played at 13.

Regardless, it’s unfair to say Bain would be the one to make way if we need to open up a spot as he has not just returned to fitness. It’s his turn to impress now and let’s judge him on the on field performances after he’s pulled the shirt on a few times.

Got a feeling we may have a player announced at the fans forum this week.

I’ll guess Corey Hall for 2025 onwards

When he played for Scotland he looked more like a LF than an out-and-out Prop but obviously, he can do both. He's got this nice little scoop offload he gets away a fair amount of times in the tackle, he's also a decent ball handler. He can play big minutes as well, not your atypical prop. We'll see what he can do for Trinity when he gets a chance. I bet he's chomping at the bit to be part of a game, he's come all this way and has just been getting back to full fitness while watching his teammates have a great time.

Doueihi is one of my favourite players despite him playing for a team I cannot tolerate! (As a former Wests Magpies fan… I hate merged entities with a fever similar to the French revolutionists)
Very skilful, big and quick… and plays the game with passion… if fit he would be a top drawer addition to any UK/ French based clubs.

Would be a great option at 6 in my opinion rather than centre. Strike half to go with Russell as organiser at 7, issue is his injury record though obviously.

He’s a great player if you can keep him fit though and still only 25/26.

I’ve a feeling despite Lino being contracted we may be trying to move him on or negotiate a release after this season. Just a thought, not a rumour.

Cas announcing something tomorrow, presumably a player. Have they secured Hall despite the rumours of him edging towards Wakefield?
