Rinaldi at 7 anyone?
Old head, a full pre season, who knows??

You've got to assume it's either a Prop or SH. Personally i believe we're weak in both positions and to a certain extent it's about damage limitation. I'm worried about our kicking game more so, and for that reason i'd hope it's a SH.

I think we need a scrum half more. But didn't Tommy Lee start out at there? He'd be my pick over Smith.

Strange recruitment decisions again. Lets load up with full backs and hookers but be short of props and a controlling scrum half.

We saw how badly we struggled last year with a lack of a controlling scrum half and lost some go forward after tronc left, but at present have done nothing about it.

Oh and don't forget it refers to others possibly leaving as well - which could weaken us further or nullify the impact of any new signing(s).

I appreciate we don't have bundles of cash, but to me that makes it all the more important to ensure you have the key positions sorted out first.

As I said on the Paul Johnson thread I don't have a lot of time for the guy and what he said, but the comments about the coaching staff seem to have a ring of truth about them to me.

It is always difficult to judge a work in progress. I think the above comments are valid - as we stand today, but I suspect at least part of that issue will be dealt with before we start next season!

could it be JM? or is he a difinite no?

I think you might be barking up the wrong tree there...

edited for correction

JM has signed for Cas, for 1 season then off to Wire.

So it would appear. www.heraldsun.com.au/sport/nrl/j ... 5958752098

or maybe rob purdham?

Presuming we had the money to pay the taxman before rodders kind interjection, and with us being up to our quota limit and being short of a attacking 6/7.
Would the purchase of Kyle Briggs be a good way to spend the money?
21 tries and a good goal kicker.
