Very happy with the Smith signing, he's normally a pain in the proverbial when we play against him so as long as he keeps that up against the opposition I'll be happy.

Leeds should let us have Lilley on 24hr recall. Can't see him laying much beyond 2 of McGuire, Burrow, Parcell and Sutcliffe getting injured.

If he's getting game time with us that he probably won't get at Leeds then I'd be surprised it Leeds didn't agree to extend his loan with us

Any idea who the new forward we have signed is?

Re: Re-signings & new coach : Sun Feb 19, 2017 7:36 pm  

I heard Ryan Bailey

And Lowe is apparently still in NZ recruiting.
Last week I was critical of Thomas but credit where it is due. He had a cracking game today. Well done.
That now makes me think Smith should slot in at centre to stiffen up that side as we leaked too many tries on the wing today.
I can't wait to see Phoenix but where will he play? If Lilley is playing I would put Phoenix on the bench rather than a second hooker as Lilley can cover and Phoenix can come on when players are tiring in a few positions.
Hopefully a big prop next week who has apparently already signed along with Smith and Phoenix. Things are looking up. Can't wait for next week already.

Both Moore and Smith were international quality as youngsters. Now they strike me as half assed struggling to get a deal elsewhere. I hope you can get the best out of them.

Moore still is quality. In the games he played last season, he was outstanding for us. If it weren't for his injuries/discipline/off field antics, he'd be playing for a top four Super League side. In terms of ability, he's one of the best around, it's just everything else that comes with him that's the problem.

Moore was quality today.

So who's coming in? Ryan Bailey?
