L Sutcliffe isn’t a back rower for me. If we were to sign another prop I would imagine there will only be one space on the bench for a back rower, and that likely could be Cam Smith.

Are we sure Thompson does count on the quota for next year given that Toronto have folded?

Like I said, I’m sure the club have a plan and we won’t be making lots of changes to this squad for next year.

To be fair to Thompson he’s shown a couple of nice touches here and there. It’s not a great use of a quota spot if it is.

I dont think back row should be anywhere near our top priority but if we want another why not get the big lad back from wigan? Bit of a gamble and perhaps slightly more money but if it paid off we could have a top quality versatile forward for the next 4/5 years.He also wouldn't count on the quota, leaving them open for genuine class from oz

Yeah he counts for 2021 as he was out of contract with Toronto at the end of the season. All their players are now unemployed and can sign elsewhere.

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Poor use of an O/S spot

I'm happy with Thompson resiging would have preferred a 1 year extension but 2 years isn't end of the world and yes he does take up a Overseas spot but we still have 1 free and we could still go after good English talent but I only expect 1 new signing with how club have come out and said not much change this off season. Thompson is hard working player and also gives us options in back row if we have injures or other players are out of form.

I'm not a fan of using Overseas spots for squad players. Each quota player must be a starter.

Replacing average players with average players is very boring.
