Disagree, Catalans biggest weakness is that their spine is really struggling to break down defences and create chances, Abdul, morgue and Fages are a big downgrade on May, Pearce and Tomkins

I think it's a team that could challenge for 6th, especially if we sign a hooker, think we will sign at least 4 more players to improve the squad.
Top 5, look good sides and squads, I don't see anything from the teams in 6th to 10th to say we couldn't finish above them next year. Maybe Salford, but they don't have the depth.
A lot with depend of the fitness of Abdul and Asiata along with how the new fullback and hooker go.
And obviously the most important factor the new coach and the staff he brings in.

| Just seen the HDM article on our quota situation. Must admit I calculated wrong and expected we still had a quota place to bring in a hooker. As it’s obvious we are talking to Rimbu the most likely quota player paid off I expect would be Okunbor.
Does this put an end to any talk of a quota centre, halfback or back row now? We’d look silly agreeing deals with players if our quota players decided to dig their heels in and stay out their contracts. What’s the situation with paying players off and the salary cap?

Cartwright will be the quota back rower.
Doubt a quota halfback will be signed now.
Hopefully a quota centre could join but obviously that would mean another current player would need to be released. Possible the way things are going but let’s wait and see.

Don't think we were either in for Sullivan TBF, think that was probably made up by Jenna Brooks.
Think backrow is sorted, although I'm still hopefully of one more, hopefully Whitehead, but seems to have gone quiet.
Don't think it will be issue paying off Ockunbor or another and don't think we will sign anyone until it's sorted, not many players are going to turn down a pay off and an opportunity to get another contract which he will either in the Championship or lower league in Aus.
Centre is key for me, really need a strike centre, this is why I think we need to shift Pele and bring in an overseas centre. Props wise we are Ok and could bring in Chan or simalar from Wigan, Saints etc.

| Apparently Sullivan got homesick moving from Wollongong to Sydney. A move to Hull might be a bit of a stretch.
Can't see it personally, especially now we've signed Abdull

But we will probably be bottom four I don't get your point? If you think we are going from 11th to top 4/5 your deluded it will be small steps every season and hopefully build back up to top 6 in time.

Agreed, can’t see Sullivan happening now.
PNG hooker Rimbu all but complete, going by PNG RL Facebook groups. They’re all congratulating him on the move!

| I'm pretty sure Okunbor will be gone at the end of the season, I also have a feeling another Quota player will be gone also, just a guy feeling.
Reading that in the HDM, it was interesting where it says we are.l still looking at moving on other players under contact. Who do we think that/they could be?
Tindall maybe? I'm still hearing whispers about that young wingers at York, but is he any better than Martin and Barron?
I'm kind of hoping we keep hold of Litten, see how he goes in centre.

We are after a winger and have spoken to Lewis Murphy, not sure at what stage the conversation is, but will have spoken to him or his agent.

This article is a couple of days old and they awful at getting things right.
Sullivan won't happen, doubt he even spoke to him, Jenna Brooks maybe things up again.

| The comments on Newcastle's Instagram regarding Cartright being let go are interesting, saying that there is no way they should have let him go, and he should be in their side - so thats promising!
Lewis Murphy would be an outstanding capture - he's going to be an excellent winger. Can't see Sullivan at all. Excited about Rimbu too, and really intrigued about what we will do with a strike centre

Murphy would be very good addition if we can sign him.

| Lewis Murphy would be a good signing .Still only young and can shift . I would have thought though , He'd rejoin the Wakey revolution if he came back to blighty .
