welcome chris, looking forward to seeing you in a black and white shirt

Good signing for me. Definate upgrade on Tickle and will hopefully bring a winning attitude with him from Wigan.

In terms of props we have Paea, Feka, Watts, Green, Bowden, Johnson and Pitts. I doubt we'll see Ellis playing there.

Backrow could be Ellis Whiting and Westy with Tuson off the bench.

Kent & Hadley

I still don't see Pitts as a prop, personally. Johnson now gone, too. We must be looking at somebody coming in or Ellis, surely?

Although Pitts has improved this year, he is not a prop, he just doesn’t carry enough weight and has no impact, a bit like Johnson. I would look to offload him early too as we already have an abundance of 2nd Rowers at the club which is the only other position I could see him having a fair crack at. We need another impact forward and it’s so bloody obvious. We also need a replacement for Yeaman too and I’m not sure Arundel will make it to be a top centre. Yeaman has two years left on his contract and that is a concern for me.

I think Arundel has shown real promise when he's had a run of games, he has excellent footwork. At each point he got injured he was playing his best stuff for us IMO.

Ellis at prop would be a poor decision. Running out wide he attracts defenders and can create space for the centre/fb. Wouldn't be a fan of moving him. More gametime for Bowden and Green. I'd like another prop to come in too.

Agree with that, wouldn't be a fan if moving Ellis to the front row.

Like I say, I'd like another prop. I'm not pushing for Ellis at prop, just wondering if it's a possibility with the way the balance of our pack is starting to look.

Really like the sound of Tuson's attitude in his article in the HDM today I really am pleased with him been at the KC.

We seem to have a whole better attitude in the camp already, I really like players coming out with "I want to prove" there is no bigger inspiration out there that proving you can do something others think you cannot and we have a lot of that in the team.

Think all the players will really help each other this year, none of that them and us we had last year.

Thing is, yes we all like to hear the players and coach say that. But all that is words until shown on the pitch.. (Even though got 2 months yet)

Think this kid could be a star for us. Outstanding attitude and won't take a backward step against anyone.

He was offered a new 3 yr deal at Wigan but turned it down to go to Wakey on a 2yr deal so he could prove himself and be a 1st team player instead of a squad player,we then picked him up and I asked the bro-in-law about him and he told me have a good player who plays hard.

high hopes for him
