If we're trying to keep pretty much the same team as this year then it's a great signing.

Ashurst has been great for us over the years. I’m okay with this if it’s as a squad player. We need to be finding the next Ashurst though.

Funding the next bill Ashurst would be great.

We got Bill at 30 with busted knees.
It would be nice to find the 20 year old version though.

He has been a great servant to us, he certainly isn't the player he was but a 1 year deal does seem to make sense. Would next year be his 10th year with us and get him a testimonial as well?

Good bit of business in my opinion.

If we stay up he’s a decent back up option with plenty of experience and if the worst happens and we go down he’s probably an important player in our attempts to get back out of the Championship

Another smart move.

We'll probably have a back row list of

Ashurst
Pitts
Tanginoa
Griffin


Depends if we spend to get a marquee 13 or we play Pitts.
I'm assuming Proctor and Crowther won't be here.

Windrow not signed yet either.

Underwhelming signing for me, been a great player for us, but this signing old players root or extending there contracts as put us were we are.
