If so it looks like weve gone for some more height, their all 6 foot - 6 foot 2 inches tall!

So it would appear ratchford is leaving, so that would make 5 new signings

Ryan O'Hara
Jason Chan
Daniel Mortimer
Ade Gardener
Hooker (Scott Moore or Andy Ellis both rumoured to be leaving?)

Would prefer Senior over Mortimer though to replace Stef

guessing our recruitment drive will be heading towards the Racecourse Ground rather than Belle Vue now ..

Keith Senior?

Anyone think Whitt and Schicofske are worth a look at?

seem to remember Godwin & Clinton Schifcofske are best mates, that'll work

Mark Bryant has been on twitter today - mostly & understandably ripping into the Crusaders board but he did mention that he had a team sorted already for next season in the SL. Could we be him for him?? Could only imagine someone like us or maybe Cas/London RL (in whatever guise!) to be after him.

Re: 4 signings for next year : Tue Jul 26, 2011 5:28 pm  

I thnk O'hara would be ok. Mortimer as a 'ratchford' role would be ok (wasnt he in running for rookie of the yeat in NRL?? - cant be that bad), I'd quite like rob prudham on a small contract (but think hes semi retiring to cumbria)

Sammut would be a good interchange hooker maybe? bring him off the bench when godwin tires......cant think of many other crusaders players that owuld be ideal. Jason chan maybe as well?

Anyone know when the new signings will be annoucned...someone mentioned we had some sorted already?

Re: 4 signings for next year : Tue Jul 26, 2011 5:37 pm  

now the welsh team have gone, what about there little french player dont know his name, but ran riot over us, and a few other teams, plus cliton and a few others are there for the taking, i reckon we cud get a few on cheap contracts if they want to play next season.

Schifcofske is a good player, but would he oust Patten at fullback? Unlikely, and at 35 he's not one for the future, so I'd be surprised if we were looking at him.
