sorry should of read previous posts. humble apology

no problem. We obviously agree.

Added Cowling extension.

This is great work keep it up.
The squad is starting to look really good, balanced, depth and a smattering of brill players.

Southern confirmed as leaving buy mutual consent in the Express today. No plans to release any more quota players.

Shame it didnt work out for him. Good luck in whatever you do next Steve.

Transfer rumours
Ian Kirke - could be a good signing
Goulding junior - one for the future
Mose Masoe - would be great but will go to one of the other nrl clubs after him.
Trevor Thurling - Reported offered 2 year deal but family reluctant to move from OZ so thanks but no thanks as could be another that dont give value for money.
Paul McShane - let one hooker go to sign another that would get little game time would be madness.
Aaron Murphy - think he will stop at the giants not a bad player but no world beater.

Think with Agars comment today in the media that won't be freeing anymore quota spots up that he'll be giving John another season to prove himself.

Will he go for another English forward possibly Kirke/Richard Moore? Moore was signed by Rhinos for 3 years and has played 16 games for them although the last one was on 18th August so doesn't seem to be getting a look in.

Instead of prop what about cover at loose forward for Washbrook for injury/off form/competition for that position? There has been mention of Daniel Addy from Bradford. He's got the ability apparently and he's not small for loose forward at 5ft 11 tall and 15 1/2 stone.

Daniel Addy's signed a new 1 year deal with Bradford... I'd like to see Kirke in our squad.

I'd take Kirke personally.

Cheeky.

13 is an easy spot to cover with an additional backrower or Paul Aiton, even Paul Sykes could play there.

I'd agree with Paul Aiton at loose forward should Washbrook get injured but not Paul Sykes who I believe has never played the position or played in the pack. Loose forwards normally are your top tacklers/runners, have some pace & have handling ability.

I'd be more likley to give Lucas Walshaw a run at that position if Washbrook/Aiton were unavailable. Hes got the size, speed & ability for tackling.

Kirmond could also cover 13

well pick from any of the following:

Aiton
Walshaw
Kirmond
Trout
Slater
Annakin
Ali

Still think Sykes could also play there as his game is similar to that described by Asmadasa, although he probably misses a few tackles too many. Let's face it, he's not really a stand-off either.
