How happy is everyone with the developments for 2020 so far?

With Matt Garside likely to be announced Monday we’ll have made the following additions:

Paul Brearley (Second row)
Keegan Hirst (Permanent) (Prop)
Jodie Broughton (Winger)
Tom Gilmore (Half back)
Scott Grix (Permanent) (Utility back)
Matt Garside (Second row)

What other areas do people want to see strengthened?

Fullback, centre and prop for me. Weve probably done the best that we could considering the mess of last season.Its going to take at least a couple of years to recover.

Why would it? Fev didn't have a coach or team at the start of this season.

Surely you don't want us to use 5 DR players every game, Hudd-Shay?

Is Grix a permanent? Not sure the value if we have signed him. Good for a season.

Ball playing centre but they seem to be a few and far between. Think Tyrer has improved in that regard but we haven't had a dynamic ball player since Nash.

Really can't abide Fev. Any success they have with DR is short- term. Hope they avoid the embarrassment next season of using 20+ players through DR / Loan.

As people who know me know that I really dislike DR, but to be honest where I’m sat in Toulouse, it is anything but embarrassing.

Regardless of DR and how Rovers go against Toronto, Fev were my pick for team of the year even before they beat Toulouse.
Well done the cappers on a great season.
