It's almost as if we've signed Cust as a back up half back because we are concerned Abdull is always injured and Sezer will miss games because of his age but Cust isn't injury prone. Don't get Cust simply don't get it.

I've always said he is the one signing I can't get my head around, should have kept Reynokds or gone for Leyland, even Hampshire.

| you also need players with guile,flair and expereience in your team.our back division is devoid of them.you can see why we have only averaged 12 points a game.

Better but still not good. The players on the pitch mostly put into practice what happens on the training filed. Some clubs look like they know what they're doing and some don't. Personnel play a part but also training it into them.
I really hope cartwright isn't another coach who encourages players to "play what they see"

Can't cover half back or full back.

Ideally, a Quota Player should be in 17 man squad, as a 1st pick, NOT someone who if everyone else is fit, won`t get a game.

| Quote: Dave K. "The main thing is to improve the robustness of the squad and get value for money, so signing Hardraker and Chamberlain to replace Sutcliffe and Scott makes sense.
Although Seizer has missed a few ganes, the last 3 seasons he has played 55 games, whilst Trueman has played 44.
Rapana has played over 20 games just about every season. Same with Asista apart from this year.
When was the last time we signed a captain and recent dream team player along with 2 players from the NRL who are first choice players.
Hopefully a new backroom team wi help this also and keep the likes of Abdul fitter, which he has shown he can do at London amd his first few seasons at Rovers, we're he was in MOS contention and playing internationally.
if this is our starting lineup first game, I can't see how anyone can say it is well ahead of this seasons side and that's without any coaching impact.
Walker
Barron
Hardraker
Rapana
Martin
Abdul
Seizer
Ese Ese
Cust
Aydin
Cartwright
Holmes
Asiata
Sao
Ashworth
Staveley
Balmforth
I'"
But why are we signing Rapana?
No doubt a quality player in his time but he is a wing now playing full back and you see him here as a centre.
According to the HDM is was not our first choice as once again we were turned down by the player/players we wanted.Sailor was mentioned
I know we are weak at centre so why dont we go all out to sign a centre.
There is just no strategy
We are ok in the wing positions,and even if Walker leaves we have full back cover in Moy,Litten and Hardaker.
Notice there is no place in your proposed team for our star 3 year man Chamberlain

Easy to kick the boys when they are down to the bare bones, Cas have quite good quality at 1, 6, 7, 9, and 13, we don’t, but we did manage to get back in the game, and a couple of missed opportunities you never know.

Chamberlain is a decent squad player, will provide good cover in a number of positions, replaces Scott, not sure why him signing is a big deal.
Maybe there aren't any decent centres available, so we sign a good player in another position rather than a poor centre.
I'd try him at centre, but suspect he will play fullback.

with their championship half backs and their part time electrician!
I'd love us to sign their coach as an assistant to work under cartwright. danny ward, Laurent Frayssinous and richard marshall all former SL head coaches now working as assistants

Er possibly 28 year old ham n egger gets a three year deal, replacing 24 year old centre with pace, who regularly doubles up as a second row.
I’ll let it go now Dave.
