Atoni was dreadful last time he played SL, there was nothing awesome about him. He's got a lot still to prove next season.

I didn’t realise you meant starting 4. I thought you meant the forward unit as a collective. Regardless, there’s more than enough firepower whether he starts at prop or elsewhere.

You may prefer him in the middle but I prefer him in the middle or edge. I believe he can play a both to a good standard and I think it’s good to have those options that’s all.

Not totally correct. Yes for the early and mid part but he improved a lot the final 3rd when Dave came back. Did put in a few solid and good performances at the back end.

I’m sure he will be motivated to continue his uplift in form into SL.

You must not have watched the second half of the season

Let’s be honest here , the team/club weren’t up to much that fateful year . Our major signing turned out to be a damp squib ,a constant turnstile of players on 2 weeks contracts was not conducive to great rugby . Thankfully I feel that relegation was the best thing to ever happen to this club in the last 20+ years, and a much brighter future is now assured

Started off poor but got into some good form once Fifita returned and gave him some inspiration and confidence.

We are re-entering the fray at a great time Imo , lots of the big clubs are in a state of flux and I feel will take some years to get back to their best . If the opening fixtures are kind and we can get some points under our belts early doors ,our confidence will sky rocket and settle us in nicely.

Agree 100% Ketty, I know it’s another season but there will be some clubs in the SL who need a big clear out and will not bring the quality that they want, so hopefully wakey will pick these clubs off

Liked the look of Rourke yesterday, isn't what you would class as particularly quick but because he has a very easy balanced running style he is able to cover ground quickly, made a superb cover tackle to stop what looked a certain try, was sound under kicks in defence, and can get up High to apply pressure on attacking kicks.
One area I felt he needs to improve upon is chiming into the line, there were one or two issues with it yesterday where he came at the wrong time or he came in, got the ball and didn't really seem sure of what to do next, that hesitation enabled the defence to recover. Have to say a couple of problems were caused by poor decisions by the halves for example the SO gave him a ball out on the flanks which resulted in Rourke being picked up by about 4-5 defenders and carried into touch, when you watched the replay from a different and wider angle there were no other London Bronchials players on that side, so why run that play?
Think he will be a useful acquisition for us though

Adam Milner confirmed as leaving Huddersfield at the end of the season (next week for them )

PLEASE GOD NO !

Its a No!

Do not think we will find it easy as that ,we are a team who have made signing of player's who have not played in S L ,some of the new signings are average and it looks like we are taking back players into S L who were past it when we were last there .Your Huddersfield and Hull will be a lot stronger next year and think now we would find it hard to beat the rest of S L Do not think it is going to be the cake walk some fans are expecting

I dont agree, in general, we have a decent pack that should hold its own with anyone. I am happy with 1 to 5 . However I do have doubts about our halves. I think our fate lies in the hands of Lino,Russel and Truman, I hope Powell faith in all three works.

which players are past it and which signings do you think are average?
