Quote DSJ1983="DSJ1983"Just on this they are proactive as a club but they’ve had money pumped into them left right and centre while we’ve been absolutely skint for 5 years. Pearson and Clark have made mistakes over this period and Rovers have got stuff right mostly but the odds are stacked in your favour if you’ve got money.
They’ve simply been lucky that they’ve had people but money in. In a sport like RL with TV and sponsorship deals that don’t even pay the bills it hard to be proactive without one or a number of sugar daddies. Hopefully the Myler appointment might level things up at least a little bit in that respect if 2 and 2 does become 4 and investment comes in from where we think it will. I’m not massively impressed with the recruitment so far TBH but I’ve have been really impressed with how Myler speaks and comes across. I think he’ll get it right especially as he grows into the role.'"
Rover are pretty ruthless with their recruitment, probably comes from Peters, which isn't a bad thing.
They signed Whitbread for this year, which meant moving on Kennedy who still had a year left to run.
You'd imagine the same will happen to Opacic to accommodate Martin.
Myler has had his hands tied, but he's done a good job of creating cap space for Cartwright moving on a few under contract players already
