What happened to the 21 man squad announcement?

They've been allowed to make it tomorrow with how close the games are.

From what Rohan saying it sounds like we are down to barely a 17 to play.

Just in terms of volume of bodies letting Mellor, Broadbent and Walker leave early this year without anyone coming in could be a mistake Smith comes to regret in the next week.

Fingers crossed we play better with the ball and get another win and get the job done.

Hoping he maybe doing a touch of the Syd Hynes favourite of announcing a team missing a few that actually play.

I'm sure part of letting them go early was for the salary cap. Signing Hardaker meant the club had move over players on to balance the books

Could be but I think the cap is “live”, so you can’t exceed it and then dip back in by signing Zak and then letting someone go 2 weeks later. We needed space to sign Zak. Whatever the case we are again short of bodies near the end of the season.

With Gannon a doubt it might be this, but with sinfield in the halves as O’Connor at 13.

Re: RD 26 | Catalan Dragons (A) : Sun Aug 28, 2022 11:25 am  

I reckon Gannon and possibly sutcliffe or prior to drop out. We will do very well to get anything from this with catalan only missing Tomkins.

I did think it might have been Edwards moment to come in.

Jack Sinfield played for u18’s today so he must be out of the picture for Monday.
