Seen we are on about full Backs who was the guy who played about 6 games for us and packed it in to become a male model he had was very fast

Are you thinking of kevin waters ? We got him from Hull.fc he packed in to be a male model

Ryan Tongia. I remember him because he was rapid and I reckon he could have been a very good attacking full back.

He went on to play super rugby or what ever it’s called down under. I remember the dummy he threw away at wire though I’m still looking for it now

Gaskell has had a few decent games recently, he’s available for next year & hopefully not gonna break the bank. However he’s not what we need, this smells of desperation a la Gigot, you’d hope that the powers that be at Wakey would’ve learnt this lesson by now!

Its funny when a player is coming to the end of there contract they seem to string a few good performances together when in the shop window, someone always takes the bait.

Out of interest what would be your plan for signings?

How come our OOC players don’t? Apart from Joe Westerman

With no announcement on who the coach is going forward, I'd be interested who's signing this is. The club, Chester or incoming coach. My guess is that with all the negativity surrounding Chester they're picking the right moment to announce his contract extension. As for Gaskell I doubt he's coming to be a back up so I expect at least 2 of Max, Alex Walker and Hampshire to be on their way.

A good looking muscle bound athlete poster did bring this up a month or 2 back to what he got shot down for like I say tricky position until something is sorted out for next year.

Well it wouldn’t have been an injury prone 31 year old, who on his day is a great attacking player but those days are getting fewer. MC stated we were looking for a full back a while ago, so I’m presuming this is it.

The pack needs spicing up, especially at prop. I’d also prioritise signing up Max Jowitt, who’s a full back!
