I just wish we would get rid of most of the utility players we have and have a smaller squad but with more quality and then use some reserves when we need them. Like Saints do, although with the way we pick up injuries that might not be the best idea.

Every team needs utility players but they should be young kids not quota players like Byrne. Next season our utility backs should be Briscoe, Hall, Green and Broughton. Give all these players experience when the backs are injured like Saints do with Wheeler, Lomax, Eastmond, Dean etc.

reckon fitzgibbon will play a bit at prop next season. what better way to lead the team than from the front.

Another reason only to sign one more prop up. If there was an injury crisis in the front row, we can put him in for a fare few games aswell.

I,m with you on this.The last 3 are unproven/still maturing but the rest could all go for me.They have'nt set the league alight this season and i can not see anything changing next.

His options may be limited given his long lay off

Ty Williams is looking for a contract next year, here or Australia. We've not been linked but I'd be pleased with him. I think prop is a priority and I hope it's true about Kite because Lauaki or Fitz would be wasted by taking them out of the 2nd row.

I'd be amazed if long can operate behind that pack next year.

So you want to sign a winger?

I mentioned him plenty of times before we signed Calderwood, but we clearly don't need a winger. I know he's played centre before not half as good there as he is on the wing.

Not heard much on Kite other the the HDM linking us and Many saying we havnt approached them. Anyone know if we genuinely are in for him?

hes not coming

Who is have you heard out??
