you would our kid, wouldn't ya.

it's mistake in hindsight IMO...but at the time of signing sam moa, i was hopeful we'd get him signed as i think he'll progress to be an even better player and with cusack & fitzy nearing retirement i wanted us to gurantee a good pack for the future. but now we're very thin in the backs and we'll have to hope for luck with injuries as well as rely on a lot of game time from briscoe and the younger less experienced players. i think the squad is an unknown quantity until we've played a fair few games..

Enjoyed seeing him flying down the wing, when Yeaman did pass it. Sounds like greed has got the better of him and racist charge did him no favours. Looking forward to seeing the new flyers but will cost me a new rugby shirt for my son- will await the new name until mid season- think Briscoe will be a better centre.

He was on 90,000 a year, so surley we must use it?

Quote Mrs Barista="Mrs Barista"No replacement coming in, Briscoe to be first choice winger. Sorry, but: Tansey Briscoe Hall Yeaman Calderwood compared to O'Meley Berrigan Cusack Lauaki Tickle Fitzgibbon means we're spending too much on the pack and not enough on the outside backs IMO.

And who knows who will become available mid season (particularly with the financial difficulties at some clubs)

Pretty much how I see it. We could do with another back now Raynor's gone but we will need all the forwards we have got and we don't have too many.

Haven't got many forwards? We must have a dozen 2nd roweres

looks like the club will wait on this.if someone becomes available,then it will be used,but they may also wait either 1)see how injuries pan out during the season and 2)see how the likes of reece lynn develop in training.

i personally think that reece needs another year in the reserves,but at some stage he may get his chance.has jodie broughton signed for anyone else yet?i think he would do a decent job as backup to briscoe and calders.nothing spectacular,but quick,and young enough to improve.

Broughton sign for salford .

We're holding that back so rovers fans can try and justify why we make a profit next year.

A big dominant centre would be great and we do look a little light in the backs but we have some quality, albeit youthful quality, and we do have some flexibility/cover

Tansey
Calderwood
Hall
Yeaman
Briscoe
Whiting
Turner
Lynne
Briscoe
Tuffour

We also have big Willie who would be a great centre if needed. That's not too shabby at all.
