22's a bit thin, I'd reckon on 25 for safety.

Josh Drinkwater?

How can we offer him a deal when we've got five imports already?

Why would we offer him a deal? I've seen nothing to merit it.

Heard that of the 5 imports 1 may not count. Maybe an EU passport?

As for Drinkwater, he can kick the ball along way but not in the right place though! Never seen a player kick it out on the full as often. Can see potential but whether he takes a step forward as a player I'm not convinced.

I can (well I used to be able to) Kick a rugby Ball a long way and accurately too.......if that's all it took to make the grade in RL then it would most assuredly be the bigger of the 2 codes.
