I think we need a prop, half back and winger! Any thought? By the way travelled 400 miles for Friday's game, anyone further? How did the reserves go?

We need pace !! any positions just pace !

Don't think we need any more props. But half-backs are essential and probably wingers. Whatever has happened to Hodgson D & Aspers?

Surely there's nothing to be lost by giving Hemingway a match or two [Ponner keep quiet!].

If we didn't have Leroy I'd add a FB to that list!

Wingers are a concern, but the problem was we had 3 standoffs on the pitch on Friday, last thing we need is another one

FWIW I thought once he got into it Fulton looked pretty useful at standoff.

Wings are a concern, but lets not "do a thorman" on them just yet eh.

Wonder how many tries a fit Paul White might have got with the same amount of ball as Hodgson

Reserves won 50-18.

None, he'd have dropped it.

It was a cracking game - Greg(?)Johnson has an amazing turn of pace and never took a backwards step, Cas had no answer to him. They played like a team who had actually been introduced to each other (unlike the first team on friday night)and the committment and enthusiasm were exceptional. I get far more enjoyment from watching these boys play than I do the 'elite' at the moment!

or Jermaine Mcgilvary

White would have bagged a few this season i reckon with his pace, he would have loved the amount of chances Hodgson gets
