Squad pretty much done by the looks of it. Maybe another winger needed to cover for Taufua and Okunbor but expect Myers to cover wing and centre next year.

A solid looking squad assembles and as Bullseye says, that's probably it now (28 players is it?). Good to have everything sorted before pre-season. Having the full group together (inc coach) for this cannot be underestimated.

Pressure is on to deliver now....

Solid looking indeed. Nice to see some size in the team, a good big un beats a good little un (usually).

Don't think i'm biased...
...i'm just very narrow minded!!!!!!!

Re: 2025 Recruitment : Fri Nov 01, 2024 11:20 am  
Decent looking squad and going to be really interesting to see where every fits in. Think there is likely to be some decent players missing out, so Nobby is going to have to use all his experience to keep the squad happy.

In terms of squad depth, I think we are covered really well in the halves and forwards but look weak in the back line. If Holmes gets an injury, there is only really Billy Jowitt who has done that but is he going to stay fit?

I can see Myers bouncing about a fair bit and its a shame given how good he has been this year. However, you have to play Armitage in front of him for size, experience and being able to handle the bigger occasions. Myers is one for the future no doubt, but does have that tendency to have a brain fart in big moments (the Fev ball steal and Toulouse tip tackle for examples).

Really big season ahead and looking forward to it already.

Meadows plays as a Fullback, so him and Holmes will be ahead of Jowitt.

Looks like Waqa Blake could be on his way from Saints.

Struggled at Saints. But then look at Okunbor. I was livid when we signed him. But did very well for us. Could be a shrewd signing.

May have been poor at Saints but he looked good at Parramatta before last season and ought to find Championship easier.

Would be another huge signing.

It'd be another good signing if we can pull it off. The pressure is certainly on for next season, but i honestly can't remember being this excited for a season to begin and its still November.
