If the early form of Talanoa continues I don't see the need to play Biggs this year at all, barring injuries. Let him learn the game.

As mcgoldrick could cover at centre and push a faster player to the wing. Just saying rather have him than Colborn. Surely Doncaster would loan us a winger if in need. I think we have plenty of cover in the backs. Colborn just not required and not SL standard imo.

McGoldrick was a decent signing as cover a couple of years ago. People need to get over him now & move on. Surprised nobody has suggested Jamie Foster yet, he's another people can't seem to forget about.

Dont think jamie foster vwould come and play back up to talanoa biggs and lineham

I'm amazed that we've managed to find a winger who is actually slower than those at rovers

Omari Caro's the quickest man in SL. As we were told ad infinitum this time last year. At least he's got some respite from being scapegoated after their extraordinary efforts at centre at the weekend.

On Colbon, it would be a most random signing. I guess Biggs and Crookes are some way off so we're already down to one winger plus a utility back on the other wing, so additional cover makes sense. I like Stark but wonder whether it's a bit too soon just yet.

I had discounted caro but just remembered that disco dave is injured so he may get a chance although I think it more likely that hall will play wing

How many players do we need?

Certainly a random signing but offers cover, I guess.

We may not see Biggs until April/May and then I would imagine he'll get a few weeks at Donny.

I really don't get this one. As someone said put Arundel on the wing if need be or a young one. I'm sure we could of coped. Is Coburn related to anyone at the club?

Somebody must have left us , surely?
Colbon won't have to cost a fortune but still can't see us having the space for him and Carvell without anyone leaving.

Thought I read decent reviews about one of your youngsters who played in the friendly games, was it Stark? This signing seems like overkill.

Welcome to fc liam gives us some experience cover on the wing

Strange. Think a couple of departures to be announced soon

Strange one, but welcome to the club all the same.

First of all mcdonnell must have gone and getting two players on his salary is good business. I also think crookes will go.

We onky have two fit wingers at the moment, stark isnt ready and not sure he will ever be, I dont like moving players out of position, but I would have though it would have been better to have moved Arundel.

To be honest the misfit signings we have made have looked good so far, he is coming for the right reason.

Welcome to the club liam.

Even by Rovers standards, he's a poor winger. No pace, and extremely fragile under the high ball. Those are my recollections of his stop-start Rovers career. He copped a broken jaw in Catalans in his 2nd year and never looked to have recovered his confidence until he left. I can't imagine how he can force his way into your side.

Quantity over quality it seems.

Have to be honest, I'm hoping we never have to see him play!

Biggs' wages remain unused for now. But I suspect McDonnell is definitely going to be on his way. You've got cover at fb, and SM does not offer the grunt and intensity out of the backfield that Radford mentions. Plus it was in the hdm and that.

It is cover if nothing else, as one more injury to our outside backs could cost us, it can go a few ways he could hardly play or if we do get injuries he could come in & do a very good job as he has wing experience, its better then seeing a squad player playing out of position, welcome to FC liam.

Does seem a bit reminiscent of the Kear era when he assembled a massive squad out of some huge fear of injuries.

I know we have Crookes injured & Biggs in limbo, but do we need 5 wingers on the books just to fix a reasonably short term problem? He may not even be needed, surely it would be better to wait and see and give a youngster (Stark?) a go, or even bring in a loan if absolutely necessary?

Good signing will put pressure on Lineham who was poor on Friday,
Stark is not ready for superleague yet.

Biggs' wage doesn't count on the cap.

Good signing for Donny, hopefully.
