I want a big ugly mongrel prop like Ryan Bailey

Hopefully this as yet unknown Aussie Prop is like that.

Tom Spencer will surprise a few, very good player in my opinion.
Ben Evans too if he can stay fit.

Present signings:
Props
BEN EVANS ~2017
TOM SPENCER ~ 2018
10. EDDIE BATTYE ~2017
16. MARK IOANE ~2017
29. SADIQ ADEBIYI ~2018

Forwards
JAY PITTS ~2018
WILL LOVELL ~2017
11. DANIEL HARRISON ~2017
17. MARK OFFERDAHL ~2017
22. MATT DAVIS ~2018
25. TOBY EVERETT ~2017

The gap is Thackery and Slyney (in particular) offered size and experience which none of the above can? Ioanne and Battye as props offer a lot, but they will miss the leadership of the other two, so an experienced and big prop is essential in my view

Thought ioanne started too come into his own at he back end of the season and could develop his leadership skills on the park for what we need

Just read that Everett is going to Toronto on loan for the season and K Dixon is coming back??!!

Everett cannot have figured in Hendos plans, so for him to go to Toronto on loan would make sense for all concerned.

K Dixon heading home? That's an interesting one. See Sammut has a 2 year deal. Toby has a real attitude problem and thinks he is better than what he is

Yup.

Re: Ins/Outs for next Season : Thu Oct 27, 2016 9:20 pm  

I wont get excited about that

Re: Ins/Outs for next Season : Thu Oct 27, 2016 10:02 pm  

Struggling to understand why some are questioning the re-signing of Dixon!!

Surely we can all agree he's a vast upgrade on Macani??

"Thought ioanne started too come into his own at he back end of the season and could develop his leadership skills on the park for what we need"

Agree, but still would like another big experienced prop to spell Iaonne and Battye.

Dixon - i think we should welcome him back, though where will we play him - potential full-back, Kear to centre? Thought we had signed the Welsh guy as a winger to replace Macani?
