Owen 2 year deal

Has that been announced? I haven't seen that?

The Owen 2 year deal maybe one of the announcements the club have said they will make this week. Together with a season long loan of Ben Cockayne to play fullback???

Owen yet to be announced. Think Fullback is taken care of to be honest - Can see Hall playing there.

I heard Owen was in talks with Fev so not necessarily a done deal

If Hall is our new F.B. we will need a S.O. from somewhere.

I think we already have our 6 for next season, his names Pita Godinet.

I think we should be looking to offload Sammut if possible and use his wage on a interchange hooker, and a utility back.

It could well be that Webbo see's it the same as you do regarding Sammut, unfortunately if nobody wants him that will prove difficult, having said that what is the point of getting rid of him if there is nobody available what can do a better job than him, and fwiw I don't see any.

Re: Squad 2015 : Wed Oct 15, 2014 3:34 pm  

Whilst I wouldn't chose to move Godinet to hooker, I think Sammut at 6 with Godinet playing at 9 seems to be the likely configuration. A quartet of Sammut, Smith, McShane and Godinet has the potential to be extremely productive, especially playing behind the pack Webster has recruited

If you watch Rugby AM when he first signed for us he makes a very interesting comment.

In his words there were a "A couple of top 4 clubs in for him" and offered him something but the only teams that could fit him under the cap for the 2014 season was London and Wakefield.

Now I don't think much has changed in that time with those clubs.
