Rumours flying around about Appo. He signed a one year deal with the option of a second. Hope we hang onto him as I think he's got plenty of unrealised potential.

So who do we want to see come in next season. A decent end to the season and new coach might just make us a bit more of an attractive place ti come.

Would love an Adam Gledhill or Joel Farrell. Hardend established Champ forwards.
Nathan Mason?
Can we keep Segayaro if not O'Brian?

Backs we need a couple of wingers, utility centre/backrow. Or utility wing/fullback

1st choilce fullback with Homles at 7 and Lilley at 9.
Id be after Matty Marsh.

Lets hear some (realistic) names!

Re: 2024 Squad and Recruitment : Thu Aug 24, 2023 8:22 am  
I'd keep the bulk of the squad and add 4-5 quality additions. Be first time in years we wouldn't have whole sale changes.

For me we need a quality FB or Half as Holmes is fine at either. Marsh would be a good shout.

Hooker. O'Brien would be the dream. Depends what happens with him at Hudds, may stay at fax in which case I'd look at Inman also from Fax who looks a fine player.

Couple of props, Mason was great when he was here.

Back-Row.

Hard to come up with realistic names. With no automatic promotion and relegation I'd imagine clubs will spend significantly less on players next year. I think Lawrence, Thompson and Jack Walker would have been laughed at last year when all we had signed were Brad Foster and Ben Blackmore (who I'd give another deal to)

Ioane and Doyle from our dear neighbours. Mitch Clark from Newcastle. Perhaps Alex Foster depending on what happens with Cas.
Maybe also try and get Ruan on a season loan from Leeds.

I'd be looking at who is going to fill the gaps left by our more senior players like Lawrence, Flanagan, Baitieri and Gaskell over the next few years. We need to look beyond just next season. In the short term we'll need a couple of wingers, a hooker, a prop and a backrower.

Would love to get O'Brien.

I almost said Antrobus on my original post. Absolute quality when fit.

Its much harder to identify quality backs. Seems to be a bit of a shortage
