work permits might be a problem but we have got to sign some one to get us round the park

Pleased with this over all. Thought maybe Lee deserved a shot at hooker before shipping him out, but I can see the reasoning behind letting him go.

Much, much prefer to sign Wood than Obst - this is the way we should be heading and this makes a nice change for us.

Welcome aboard lad, good luck.

That point is correct. All these players are much of a muchness, none are going to particularly improve the team anymore than the other. And even if John does come in we will still have a pair of very inexperienced halves.

Agree with this, Lee's defence has been shocking to say the least. Attacking not much better, I'd be surprised to see him in the starting line up of any SL team again. He had his chance and failed.

touche

seriously though you're not easily pleased

The new stand off has already been signed, it is ...





























































































... Danny Washbrook

We'd be less creative than last year if that was the case.

Or maybe the versatile Ben Cockayne

I`m wondering about the signing of Kyle Wood we already have a young and untested english scrum half in Gareth Moore why do we need another. I hope we are trying to sign an experienced scrum half I think it would be a brave move to go with Moore or Wood

Draught aussie beer perhaps

All/most of these lads want to be out on dual registration/loan contracts.

Wood is an insurance policy in case of visa rejections. And he is better than Lee anyway.

Isaac John will be our playmaking half back, now let's move on

Wood maybe better than Lee but as less experience end of ....Your guess is as good as mine how he will go.

Give the lad a chance. I saw him on TV for hudds last year and he looked sharp and dangerous, also creating tries. He's better than anyone youve got at the minute

I'd say he is on par with moore

Lee has signed for Shudders on a 1 year deal.

yes sorry, all the "big announcement at 14:00" etc. we all knew this was coming, and it's a minor squad player signing who may well turn out to be a starter in due course. hardly worth much of a fanfare.

A tweet on twitter is hardly hype!!!
Thats like me saying, "I'm off to the bog" then going to the bog, I'm not hyping it up I'm just saying I'm off to the bog.

Do i get an award for using bog 3 times, in a sentence?

No - bog off.

fair enough i suppose. can't say i'm up with facebook and twitter in the slightest, but clearly andrew glover see value in telling people there's going to be an announcement on there.

Is there still one of the five to be announced?

Theres been five announced since they said it suppose it depends whether they were the aactual five

I believe Amor didn't count as one of the five. The excuse given was they couldn't be finalised whilst Agar was in Australia and Amor was announced while he was still out there. So Cockayne, Raleigh & Kirmond are three. Wood i'm not sure about but I would guess he was one, so one to go. Although I think theres more than one more in the pipeline anyway, more like half a dozen with two or three possibly going the other way.
