We only have one specialist centre with any experience in Newman. Not sure how that qualifies as well stocked? We do have some with potential in Edwards (if he ever plays a game for us) and Simpson I suppose....

I think Rock N Rolla is a Hull fan and responding to the suggestion Zak is likely to be Hull bound.

Signing a player (who is known to sulk and be a flat track bully) and who is injured with a serious injury is not a perfect signing for us in any way shape or form

I’m not sure I agree on the flat track bully part - he’s hardly had the foundations to thrive as Hull have been a joke for a long time.

Given the right environment under Rohan Connor could be a very dangerous (and flexible) asset

Each to their own, I suppose. For every decent game I've seen him play he's had as many shockers. And I mean shockers.

Gannon got his deal upgraded too
And Oledzki?

Connor`s signed for Huddersfield.

Purely a guess from my side:

Savings
Sutcliffe - £100k
Dwyer - £80k
Mellor - £80k
Thompson - £70k
Briscoe - £70k
Broadbent - £30k
Mustapha - £30k

That's £460k off the cap, as well as Gale before the season started which must be at least another £100k. So, £560k off the cap.

Costs
Austin - £10k
Gannon - £20k
Oledzki - £20k
O'Connor - £30k
Fusitua - £100k
Ruan - £30k
McDonnell - £50k
Hooley - £40k
Warren - £30k
Sangare - £80k

Total additional spend from new players and upgrades £410k. That lease £150k spare cap space....

Even if taking up the slack for Fusitua's wage did result in an extra 100k the club could surely move him to marquee status and save cap money. None of this ( not talking about Batley's figures) quite adds up.

I don't think we have any marquee spots available

We should. As far as I'm aware Tetevano was one and Gale was the other. Gale is long gone.
