Need 2 forwards to replace Ellis and Thompson, Wardle and a Moors type player would be ideal.

And a winger/centre to replace Fonua.

Not sure if that is possible with our cap and the returning loan players though.

Re: Recruitment and retention : Mon May 22, 2017 7:15 pm  

Need a winger now, who is available

Briscoe - out of form and injury prone
Mcgillvary- would cost a fee
BJB - big contract offer from Wakey
Evalds- good player, but he a Radford winger
Sio - not sure if he come back to SL
kevin naiqama - out of contract, a bit like Fonua who would do well in SL.

Anyone else?

Sign Inu and move Griffin to the wing?

Re: Recruitment and retention : Mon May 22, 2017 7:19 pm  

Also Inu, nearly signed him before, very good player, but a bit injury prone.

Beat me too it, my centres would be Connor and Carlos, Inu on one wing and Talanoa or Griffin on the other.

Back ups Logan, Naughton and Rawsthorne

Like you say, nearly came here before. Two years older now though. Still a good player when fit. The fitness could be the issue against maybe?

Inu's a great player but always injured and why would anyone move griffin to the wing? Should we move watts to stand off and play taylor at full back? Griffin is a centre

Maybe because he has played lots of times on the wing in his career.


Probably not as much as centre, but certainly a few times.

Re: Recruitment and retention : Mon May 22, 2017 8:01 pm  

Maybe Griffin would be a better winger than a centre.

Re: Recruitment and retention : Mon May 22, 2017 8:09 pm  

McGillvary all day long and twice on Sundays. But he loves Hudds, so won't happen.
