There is definitely a 3 way split in SL.
There is a top 3, the rest, then Rovers.
Not surprised after our disappointing season and after being hyped up pre season as GF contenders.
We have a good squad, need to improve our line speed, intensity and defence
Plenty to work on for Hodgson and hopefully with the right additions, we'll be able to bloody the noses of the top 3 and aim to be the best of the rest.

Any news on Season passes or when there's likely to be

Hi Rocknroller I mailed the club, here’s the answer, this morning.




Regarding 2021 memberships, we have been awaiting some final details from the stadium ticket office who process elements of the programme for us, as well as the challenges we have faced without being able to open our own facilities for renewals.

Our intention is to have all the information circulated by the end of the week/early next week, with renewal packs landing in the post shortly after.

With Covid in mind, it is also hoped we can offer an online sign-up service via the stadium ticket office to save people having to travel, but this is something we’re still discussing and seeing how it might work through their new infrastructure which they have just replaced.

Thank you again and I with you and yours a pleasant Christmas too.

Thank you much appreciated.

If we are looking to bolster our front row, Remi Casty would not let us down, he’s been rock solid in his career with the Cats, very underrated and I think he’s available.

His age scares me a bit. If we're looking for an experienced front row I'd be more tempted to look at Craig Kopczak. Wakey released him and he's 'only' 33.

He’s getting on, but he’s always played big minutes, seems very rarely injured. I year deal maybe.
And he could bring Bretts post over

Why are we discussing players not considered good enough for our rivals and so released as a way of improving our team.
If they were good enough, offered value for money they would be retained.
It's like discussing the bargain bin at Boyes.

I'd look at Eddie Battye. Back to London after a year loan at Wakey. Only 29. Their fans rate him highly.

Did you see Joe Cator in that Boyes bin.

too similar to Fash.
We need big and mobile

Funnily enough no as he's a young and upcoming signing, foolishly let go by Rovers.
He's not some 30+ prop releases by a SL rival, considered not good enough for them but yet some people suggest we sign them

So you can't tell the difference between a player at the early stages of their career and ones that aren't?
Either we trust to the players coming through or we continue down the line of spending too much on has beings as well as too much on quota players that often don't offer a great deal, our recruitment has been as much off as on for the last 7 years but it's the coaching that has let us down.
On paper we've had some of the strongest squads we've ever had yet not looked remotely like were going to win a GF and had our s handed to us with severe beatings.
Hopefully with some new coaching blood they can address the core problems and that we don't need more big names that take huge % of the cap or has beings to play some good rugby and be consistent at the same time.

If we sign a prop the standard of those two mentioned Jack Brown's gametime, I'd be very disappointed.

Props we have Bowden, Brown, Taylor, Sao, Satae, Fash and Masi.

Backrow we have Lane, Savlio, Ma'u and Cator

So I'd say the need for a backrower is more needed particularly if we are adding depth.
