See Satae has offers, still 50/50 on him, one of the best props I the league on his day, but that doesn't happen enough for me.

Would probably rather him stay, but wouldn't be devastated if he went.

Wouldn't be getting into a bidding war for him. Seen a few mention Makatoa, which would make sense if it was Sataes replacement.

Can we get Whitbread in to replace Evans?

This, don't panic make sure we get the right man, Wakefield signed Gale so looks like they are preparing for life in the Championship.

All speculation but perhaps if some of the younger players haven't featured yet due to cap issues maybe the release of Evans will allow the room to give them a try?

I still can't believe we are at cap.

I wonder how Elijah Taylor is getting on at Featherstone.

I think we’ll replace evans with a non-quota player. I don’t see us bringing anyone over from Aus right now and no SL club are going to let us bring a decent quota player in now.

I can’t see any decent back rowers available in SL either. It’s going to be tough to recruit. I think the best option is to look at bringing in a prop and then roll the dice with a back rower from the champ. We need long term solutions not stop gap signings

Re: Shopping list for 2024 : Mon May 01, 2023 12:26 pm  

Have seen Whitbread and O Donnells names being mentioned, that would be a good start

Re: Shopping list for 2024 : Mon May 01, 2023 12:37 pm  

By all accounts it is a mutual consent termination with no pay-off for Evans, perhaps a good deal for all involved

Hasnt put enough effort in this season so think it looks like he wll go.
Got himself into shape but hasnt used it to any good effect.
Sorry to see him go if he does but still a plodder in defence and needs to do more to become a top front row
