That would be a good signing mate.Then Phelps can play in the centres.

We've got to release John Kite.

Tbh will depend what he's like in training and what progress they see got him.

He's had a shocking time with injuries before us and got a little one at a bad time here. We are unlikely to see if he's worth it this year on field BUT what be a shame if we got him right then saw his potential realised elsewhere.

Cracking player but be big money in arguably our strongest position.

Phelps back to centre and him and Briscoe fight it out.Depends also how much game time we get from Briscoe too.

Aye problem is a fully fit Briscoe and what do you do? Kearney can play 6 but you have Kevin Brown so probable 3 best players fitting in to 2 slots.

Personally my target would be a centre using Phelps when Briscoe out who in his own right is a very good SL Full back. Then allow Isa / Marsh / Dean to fight for other spot whilst also being wing options (Dean back row too).

All options though mate and competition for places will make us stronger as a team.We all know injuries occur and a good squad is required.Marsh has not signed yet, but maybe soon. Depends on Kearneys demands and for me we need a proper 7, as i still cant figure out Hanburys best postion.I like Hanbury but seems a player with great pace over 30 meters, like Johnny Davies at his peak.

you need a big intimidating forward as i have said previously pickersgill is not a prop or a starting player or even a bench player god knows why he got another year must be cheap lol but cross is getting better and he is now adding try scoring to his ability ha ha but hope you get some good players and i said this season is about finding feet (you are getting there), weeding out the crap players (yet to see), and seeing what positions need a boost and in my eyes you need prop x1 at least, alot of people are saying a 7 but hanbury will go well with gametime, a hooker and i hope you keep mcshane and 1x centre then maybe a couple of squad players 2nd rowers utility players
