Top six 2005 - Trinity.: |
|
| There's a release on Leeds site that Ali, is leaving and he goes on to say he wants to play SL next year.
Now, i truly hope we are in for him. As an impact second rower or prop in 20 minute spells there is none better.
One year would be ideal, 2nd if he produces form similar to that at Leeds over years.
Seems like a well liked player also.

He would raise the quality of our front row in comparison to Higgins, Korki (sorry) and the 2011 version of Hickey so get him in i think. We wont be in for the real top players so we need to be realistic as to who we will sign.

I think this could be a great bit of PR by Glover.

Dowes has simply suffered from a change in strategy at the club in my opinion. He is an intelligent, fit strong prop who shows he works hard and makes good decisions on the field.
What he isn't is a monster. He has been replaced by likes of Sam Moa and O'Meley
If we sign him I think he would do well but we need to balance it out with some size too.
Dowes, Johnson and Wilkes are not big props. We need Hickey to play to his size (and make some significant game time) and Korki at his best (or a suitable replacement if he is going). Size matters in this area of the team.
(Added in edit) Saying all that....I'd rather keep Amor.

They're waiting for the £2 Billion from the sale of the Probiz Coliseum/Jungle to come through.

| So who is the other one being announced today? Have I missed it or are we still speculating?

Sounds like it could be Fox or Dowes unless they are going to catch us off guard with a surprise.
I must say it is great to speculate about us signing good players again.

| Leon Pryce (and I don't think we have him), would be a good signing.
Whilst none of our new signings may be current internationals, they are all positive.
Just look at BBC text now - it's Wakey swoop for...Wakey sign...Wakey snap up...
We are in the news for good reasons.
Signing Pryce, Dowes, Fox and Ali would set alarm bells ringing at the clubs that we are realistically battling with.
