Getting pally with Reynolds wasn't a good move for him, on paper an ex state of origin player taking a young player under their wing sounds great but Reynolds was here for a holiday, I don't think I've seen an overseas player do so much sightseeing!

I thought Wynne always tried hard on the field, it's just attitude off it that was his undoing. Wouldn't surprise me to see him sucessful in SL if he's sorted his head out.

I'm not sure on Livett, looked good when he first came on the scene, but has gone little for ages. Is he better than Lane, Holmes and Cartwright, I'm not sure.

Be ok as a squad signing, but I'd be looking at any new signing enhancing the 17, I'm not sure he does that.

Would rather give Staveley and Kirby game time if injuries bite, especially Staveley he's got everything in his locker to be a first team regular.

Agree, we have also got to be careful that bringing in stop gap signings doesn't limit our ability to sign big money players in 2026/2027.

The only signings we should be looking at is a prop or a centre, Holmes, Lane, Jeddars, got Staveley, Kirby and Sao at a push to play 2nd row, sorted at 13, 9, 6/7, wingers and full back IMO for depth.

We need a PROP now !!!!
Simple as that

Then we have always needed a
Beast of a centre
Fast Big and a try machine

Agree that we should be targeting a prop and centre.
We don't need Livett with Staveley and Kirby plus Lennon Clark is impressing in training too i've been told.

In regards to Wynne, all I'll say is that if we were to be looking at signing him then I'd be a little concerned about developing youth as he would only be a stop gap signing and wouldn't be likely to offer anything above that of an academy player.

Currently we are in need of another front rower and a centre but actually have faith the club have a handle on this after so many poor recruitment cycles previously since 2018.

Agree with chris.
Wynne has undoubted talent but has his attitude changed.
We’ve got young hungry kids coming through that deserve a chance.
Think it also highlights kr issues too.
Recruiting wynne and kershaw and not promoting from within. It’s just not a sustainable model.

Their academy production line is an absolute joke compared with everyone else aside from Leigh (who have only just gained an academy license, which isn't their fault).

The fact IMG seemingly don't care about youth development either shows where the game is at. If more clubs brought through their youth we'd all have a bigger player pool which would lead to more teams in super league and the end of stupid loop fixtures.

we're two years in to the new road-map mate, we didnt give the acdemy a look in pre BOD, it takes time and picking up those sort of players allows depth, especially with the new rules about limited playing time, agreed it isnt a sustainable model and thats why its being addressed so much within the club

Surely you'd be better off giving Gorman a chance over someone like Wynne or Kershaw if you were that serious?

my honest opinion is that the crop we have at the moment just arent good enough to be competing for a spot in a top 4/2 squad at the moment, the stakes are high, they would really have to be special to get in the current team, wynne had something at FC but his tantrums masked that, hes 23 local lad and wont make any dent in the cap, as is jack brown

i want to see the academy thrive more than anybody, trust me , with the 3G, new coaching staff, money injection into it, we'll hopefully to see it bear fruits later on, our scholars beat every team last year so thats a start and hopefully the next good batch

dont disagree, they arent ready yet, but with the limited playing rules and also the toll summer games/cc cups games take they are perfect covers

both young players with plenty of scope to push on
