Depends what the bench is like.

Tickle and Burnett starting, Manu doing 2 spells replacing one of them one time and the other the other time.

Sounds like we are going to have a virtually new pack next season.(which we need)

Damn right we need to change our pack !! So Thackray, King and Tickle to leave ??? Does that seeem to be somewhere near the mark ???

Heard that the club are trying to get rid of King, it seems unlikely that Thackray will get another contract and now Tickle to Wire ??


Anymore forwards ?? Hopefully we will find enough money for two big no-nonsense forwards to replace them !! (aswell as Lauaki)

I reckon only 1 more forward to come in (hopefully a big prop), turner who I reckon will play in the centres (although I'd rather play Briscoe there) and either a utility back or a specialist FB depending on what he's planning for tansey

Just one forward isn't enough for me. We have one of the weakest packs in SL with almost zero go-forward. This will not be sufficiently addressed with just one more forward if we want to be challenging for the top spots of SL.

Although it's a decent start.

The signs from rule would indicate there aren't anymore props coming in, although if said people move it would surely have to be addressed!

No more props coming in would be a total joke !!!!

I haven't got a clue about the quota spots though. Am I right in thinking that we have two more quota spots available as long as Lauaki is "Tongan" ??? and where do we stand with the "Kolpak" spots ???

Is it one Kolpak player allowed but Manu will not count ???
