I'm not sure there is really.
Of course they have some good players but if we've made the effort to build a team that will work well together and with Powell, sometimes knocking players back to keep the ethic in place, adding someone randomly may break that.
I'd be looking at young potential there rather than top players.

I agree, there isn’t anyone I would be desperate for, although saying that, I would like to add a hardened super league level prop. Granted we have McMeeken but I would argue that Atoni was hit and miss in SL and Rodwell and Uele are unknowns at SL level. So whilst not an exciting pick up, the likes of Singleton, Bullock or even Hill could be useful over the course of a season.

Good God! Our penalty count would be even worse than it has been of late. Unbelievable, I know but very likely.

In for Watkins apparently

He's done alright since he got rinsed by Bill "Tornado" Tupou!!

He will put the season tickets sales up Over 30 reaching end of is S L days .Though those days had gone

Short term he would do a job but if we are looking at second rows then Sam Stone could be an option and if the quota is free could be a good long term addition.

Stone’s alright isn’t he, but even with age against him I’d still prefer Watkins. Honestly don’t think Singleton, Bullock, Ormondroyd et al would improve our squad, which is testament to the job Paul Rowley’s done with them all as a unit.

In terms of pure talent, McDonald, Nikorima, Lafai and Sneyd are the standouts. But I’m not sure how/where any of them would fit in our system at the moment. The first two are also big hard-to-coach characters and we seem to be avoiding those types at the moment, which I’m all for.

I’m happy with where our squad is - it’ll be easier to see where we really need to strengthen by July.

I think McDonald would be good but we don't need centres

I trust Powell and Steve Mills if they think they can get Watkins and he’ll improve the squad then that will do for me. A lot of experience was lost when Ashurst went and Watkins would be good value on a 2 year deal. Plus he could also provide cover at centre as it’s a long season and a relatively small squad of 30 players. 43 were used when last in SL.

Yeah we did have 43 but we were desperately trying to stay in Super League, so were loaning players from any club that would lend us any !!
