A very positive review and up to 5 more players to come in for next year.

Very good news, although it sounds like we are looking to move a couple of contracted players out of the club, which I never like to see.

great news about signings reckon one is scotlands jonathon walker as for contracted players going sean gleeson and rhys to move on ??

3 walkers? As opposed to just Adam and O'Hara?

I doubt they will move Gleeson on unless we have another centre coming in. As much as I rate Salter, we need cover, particularly as Welham is becoming the new Jake Webster regarding injuries.

I agree Stan but if we do not think they are good enough and we can get better so be it life and rovers must move on

The two to be announced soon, I suppose most people would assume Jon Walker is one now. And I'd fully approve, fwiw.

The World Cup player announcements will have to wait until the RFL confirm the non-fed limit is going up to 7, I'd guess. O/T Pearson's comment about Hull FC's recruitment plans now makes more sense.

As for those contracted maybe leaving, I've heard the rumours, and (apart from Caro (sorry Omari!)) they all seem a bit surprising - but it's hard to judge without knowing who we'd be looking to bring in. And yeah, I'm torn too between feeling levering out players isn't nice and may damage moral and thinking 'stuff nice', we need to be ruthless. ateotd, you can't move on a contracted player against their will and they hold the cards.

I know what you are saying, and agree with it to an extent, but Gleeson (for example) was a known quantity before we signed him. He has a contract and it deserves honouring. Unless he's in breach (and being injured is unlikely to breach his contract) he has every right to dig in and fight for a place in the team.

Having watched it, mention too of development behind the East stand and at the South end.

There's already an occasional bouncy castle and an old mini bus behind the East Stand, what more do people want?

Moon on a stick some people, moon on a bloody stick.

Is Evan T ( not gonna try and spell his name) going to be with you next season or are the sacking rumours true ?

Probably as true as your last 99 rumours that you have got wrong.

I doubt we have SACKED him as you put it.

So he will be with you next season AS ?

Lovegrove, Tuimavave, Hall and Caro were the players 'Nosey' Parker said were being shopped about, iirc. The first 3 did and still do seem a bit odd - all offered something last year and were either signed by CS or got new deals under him, I think. There seems to have been some truth in the Lovegrove one though, so who knows?

Thanks MR .

id get rid of Gleeson, Horne, Carlile, E.T, Caro as there all gash, sod it get rid of the lot and start again

hasn't Graeme Horne recently signed a new 2 year deal, would be difficult moving him on

Sean Gleeson only played six games but I thought he looked very good. Certainly very creative with ball in hand. If he can stay fit he'll be massive for us.

Funny how we all see different things in the same player. I saw Gleeson make a decent debut in France, and was unimpressed every game after that. He has a lot to prove in a Rovers shirt if next season isn't to be his last here.

Good idea not to have a go at his surname, considering you got his 1st name wrong!

I knew I should have just put E.T

I tend to agree regards gleeson,but in his defence it would be difficult to be up to speed playing so few games.Big season for him and a decent run of fitness may show why we signed him.
Tuimavave looked ok in short bursts,but for an overseas spot I would expect a bit more,and dont bring a great deal of impact from the bench,not sure !

I like ET. We are a more composed team with him on the pitch. He doesn't take a backwards step. One of our most underrated players imo

I'm glad somebody else has seen this. Done a pretty solid job for me. We often seemed to lose the initiative in matches when he was off the field.

Still need to be convinced about Gleeson. Those Gidley flick passes are dangerous when they come off but you can't keep coughing up possession all the time.
