Lets hope Bowden gets back to full fitness and starts to hit some form.
Green is miles ahead of him at the moment.

Disappointing to lose home grown players but so long as the quality of the team goes up then we just need to accept it. Greens probably been our form forward in the last few games and him and paea been much better than Taylor and bowden but maybe they are putting themselves in the shop window.

Litten always brings energy to the game when he comes on but when the coach prefers Danny washbroom the writings on the wall. He wont be a other Josh Hodgson but the fact we seem to be intending to use fash as back up hooker is a worry. I think Houghton has mused a chunk of each of the last 3 seasons and I wouldn't be confident of many wins with fash as our hooker

A shame to see them leave but with respect neither are game changers. Green has done well in recent weeks but has missed about a third of games over the last five years with injuries. Litten is unlikely to be another Hodgson. If Rovers want to take that chance, fair enough.

Radford and Pearson have got little wrong when releasing players.

Don’t think Fash will be seen as a long term option, just that’s it’s something that can be added to his game (as he’s not seen as a front line prop).

Think we’ll maybe look elsewhere when Danny plays less minutes.
Didn’t we look at O’Brien before he joined Giants from the Bulls?

Maybe there is something in the rumour recently about us being in for Cunningham?

they'll be maths involved too, with the salary cap. if we are bringing in a few quality players they won't be cheap. i like green and he will always be one of the CC16 players, but you can't keep everyone

Looking like were losing 8 forwards and no backs and adding 2 backs and 4/5 forwards. Leaves the squad lop sided for me

Numbers could be different if you add savelio talanoa and miloudi in the mix

So far we've lost 2 backs and added 2.
Miloudi and Talanoa out
Swift and Fonua in.
In the fwds we've confirmed
Thompson
Langtree
Green
Litten all out

Jones
Savelio in.

I reckon the following will also leave
Washbrook
Mini
Manu
Hadley
Paea
Westerman
Logan

add Dawson Jones to that list

If Greens injury record was a little better no doubt he’d have another contract at Hull. Unfortunately he just misses too many games.
Not overly fussed about Litten, way too small to do 80mins at SL level.

Andy Ackers is an interesting one.

Maybe Radford rates Webster in the Reserves as back up hooker ?

Meh, since Radford took over the only player thats been released that you could say we've missed is Watts &that was a completely different circumstance. If he doesn't see either player as good enough of good enough value for money next year then that's enough for me.

That's one way to look at it. If you take the squad we went into the season with, vs the one we might start next year with:

Out
Backs:
Talanoa -> Naulago
Miloudi -> Swift
Griffin (to the pack) -> Fonua

Forwards:
Minichiello -> Griffin
Manu -> Ma'u
Paea -> Ikahihifo
Westerman - Sao
Green -> Savelio
Litten -> Cator / Cunningham?
Hadley -> Ellis
Langtree
Thompson

Would love us to sign a big lump like fifita or walmsley.
