No i thought that at first, but if you read the post



They were chatting about past players moving on Eg Kopzac and then the Kear subject came up because of Kopzacs link to Salford too.

With you.

Tbf Kear would be a good squad addition as we don't really have cover for Nial.

Still could do with a battle hardened prop though

Happy Christ mas everyone. Does everyone feel that its likely there will be no more players arriving now even though we are short up front of quality? Cheers

A big guy wearing a red shirt was seen in Weaste last night - perhaps he was the marquee signing?

Didn't know that James Gavet hadn't been picked up (released by Brisbane) and seeing as we're short of another bit barnstorming prop.

New Year present please Doc.

Non-fed quota would be a bit of a problem.

Pah, such trivial things don't matter

There's one or two of our current non-fed's I wouldn't mind being released to provide space. Can't see it happening this close to the start of the season but then look at Patterson last year I guess.

We can always hope!

I'd not be disappointed if we tried to resign Lee Jewitt, didn't realise he was only 28 so very much coming into his prime as a prop.

Happy new year all. Anyone aware (rumour's or fact!) whether we are still trying to bring in another prop? cheers

We are signing a player this week.Only info i got is that he is English

That narrows it down.

Will we sign him in ' the morning ' ?

This might be a possibility. Although Lee is happy at Cas (and the club supported him massively when his twins were born) his family circumstances may be that it is better for him to be closer to home.

Was thinking the same about Jones, do we need another utility centre/back row though?

It'll be a like for like body to fill in the absence of Hauraki, so I'm guessing yes.

Also decent centre cover, as for me Obrien just doesn't have the size

Anyone know if we are still after a big prop or not?

Ian Watson is quoted on today's BBC sport website saying we still have money to bring in new players. He also said it was his and Tim Sheen's idea not to act like kids in a sweet shop and spend all their pocket money. (Or words to that effect)

Tim Sheen said that if the right player was available at the right price, they would act but they weren't looking for one: yesterday's MEN

It does give us options if the right player becomes available for whatever reason. Most coaches would blow the entire budget just for the sake of it. It's always easy spending other people's money isn't it? Fair play to them I say, if it doesn't fit don't try and make it fit.

It'd be wise to save a slice of the cap prior the middle 8's to secure a superleague place.

I hope our players are more positive about our prospects. Although I do understand your pessimism with our history of bad luck, self-destruction and underachievement. The gauntlet has to be thrown down and the cycle of failure must be broken.
