Someone has put on twitter David Hala from redcliffe dolphins. Now he will bust a tackle, he's a monster!

The only position that I have real reservations about is FB, maybe marshy will prove me wrong though. In Tim we trust!!!!!

Just looked him up looks a big dude! Whose twitter feed was it on?

Hope there's some truth to this!

If we sign that Hala then our pack is potentially better then last years, especially as we can play Blair in his preferred position.

I think we need another winger though, shaw/Oakes/wardill is pretty uninspiring Get a winger in and this big man and you've got to be happy with the make up of the squad, especially with cap space on it still.

Not sure what options are about for wing though

Think you might get a shock with Oakes this year. I think last year was a year of growth for him but I saw him training last week and he looks a real prospect. The same goes to Jubb, that boy has some engine on him. I'm backing both of them to shine throughout the upcoming campaign.

does anyone know what the loan agreements for Abdul & Ellis is with regard to parent club recall?
My concern is if Huddersfield and or Hull find themselves in the middle 8's could we lose one our both our halfbacks at a very important time of the season.
If that is the case do we need to be signing suitable replacements before this could happen.

Nowt wrong with a bit of depth!

I think Heffernan is pretty versatile, so bringing Welham back could be a good move. I'd be slightly less clear on where Chisholm would fit in.
