Keale Carlisle at hooker?

Good call.

Southernwood at 7? He played 2 games for us there.

Yeah, he did. But he wasn't so much 'tapped up' as just not retained, wasn't he?

Same applies to Bridge, Atkins, Patrick and Ferres :/

Yes, you're correct it does. I didn't mention them as they were mentioned further back in the thread, though it's different with Cain anyhow, as unlike the others, you can't really say that, if he were available, he would be anywhere near the standard of the current side.

Jason Crookes can also be included as an ex-junior.

Jason Crookes another good call. Scrum Half must be the only position that we haven't produced anybody of nnote recently.

Tyla Hepi released by HKR. Only 19 years old.
I was quite impressed with this kid and was surprised at them releasing him, pretty sure he won some kind of young player's award last season.
We should sign him, replace one promising 19 year old with another

He looked pretty small from what I saw of him on Tv, but was only Tv though. He was quite terrier like though.

I'd expect there must be a reason why they would 'release' a 19 year old who had just won an award?
