I meant clearing the decks since the MPG could of been to your advantage it lets the coach sign who he wants and retain who wants I know you lose a few but that's life not every player will want to play in a lower league even for a year but you seem t have done well in keeping the players you wanted in general how big do you think your squad should be at this stage ? and how many have you actually got at present ? interesting that Bradford had 30 not much room to move anyone else in it seems

Well we've shown our commitment by offering a contract I thought out of our top end players who could get SL contracts I thought Josh would stay but if he's hanging out for SL contract good luck to him but I think it's time to say make a decision either way

Lancaster would be a decent option, but he's not played many first grade games and there's already a lot of 'potential' in the squad.

the fact that we are starting with a lightweight back row, makes it imperative that we have 2 wingers who can take runs down the middle of the park to compensate.

So if Quinlan is coming we have 4 quota spots at our disposal? I can't see us using one for a winger...

Jamie Ellis on loan from Hudds?!

It would appear TS has signed who he wants and retained who he wants from the players prepared to sign for 2017. As all Superleague contracts were nullified on relegation the decks were automatically cleared. The aim seems to be 3/4 more signings and leaving space on the cap to sign experienced players for the middle eights should we achieve a top four finish and finances allow, following the Leigh model.

Exactly the kind of signing we need, a good player, with a good kicking game.
We can offer him a chance to rediscover his best form and who knows what the next season holds for him.
Next we need to find an "under loved" winger. Tom Lineham anyone ?

If Ellis signs I don't think we require Abdull, more of a running half.

Agreed, probably a young Aussie instead

The player I mentioned earlier in week is a young up and coming Penrith player.

Think he is called Heffernan, and is only 21. He can play half back, full back and centre, but has been down the pecking order below Wallace and Soward.

Maybe Hudge was telling the truth and we won't be signing anyone front the dullers

Decent signing is Ellis at your level, I'm sure I suggested him as a signing a while back.

Can't sign Abdul surely now as him and Ellis would be fattest halfs in the history of RL.

Found it, in the know
