As the title suggests, post here to post and discuss all new signings along with any possible options, whispers or even Whiff's for this season and onwards to 2026

Will Pryce has been mentioned a couple of times recently I've also heard we are talking Toby King as well, who is off contract at the end of the season.

Matt Shaw saying we've signed Connor Barley from York. Surely that's the end of Gardiners time here

Connor Bailey he's a 2nd rower

Yeah I can't read......

Probably the end of Jebson

Could mean Holmes is retiring too? 

Under 30 so I like that immediately 

Wouldn't be against it


Cartwright, Batchelor, Bell, Bailey and Kirby, we are well covered in the backrow.

Bailey Highlights on YT

Welcome aboard Connor Bailey looks a decent pick up and an addition to the back row recruitment for 2026, not sure it means the end of Jebson necessarily at the stage though think it leaves a question mark over Holmes future on the field going into in 2026.


Cartwright, Batchelor, Bell, Bailey, (Holmes?) with one or both Kirby and Jepson coming through the ranks in time.   

Could still be a place for Jebson, does seem a bit odd that he's barely been mentioned but not aware of an injury? Bailey could just be a replacement for Staveley.


Look to have plenty of good options there now compared to this year.
