Looking at posts about him from his Aussie clubs - they are very variable.

My lad bumped into Innes this week- when asked he said where he will be next season isn’t yet decided. So we may well need a winger!

You guys should be delighted to sign Chris Hill. Easily our most consistent player over the last 10 years. A proper go forwards prop..not many of those about at the moment. I'm gutted he's going. We are ALWAYS a better team when he is on the pitch.

Hill is a good signing, most of us said at the start of the year that we looked light in the pack and its proved the case. I think Edwards will be a loss, looks like Josh Jones will take his place on the left edge with probably Yates or Bruno at loose with Hill in the Front Row, will Ashworth return?

Are Matty English and Oli Wilson contracted for next year?

A new spine next year, will we see Will Pryce become our number 1 full back, could Lolohea end up there with Pryce/Russell at half? Has anyone seen enough from Cogger, he's too similar to Frawley for me. Will Ashall-Bott sign on for another year?

Agree on the one out drives, thats been our way since Baloo, i'm fed up of seeing our backs being the only ones to take a carry in our half

I see you've re-signed Nathan Mason. Surprised he's managed to get signed up for Super League next season. I was expecting to be playing for us in the championship 2022. Good luck to him anyway, nice friendly guy.

Good to see Nathan back. A typical Watson signing- only signed for a year which is good business as he now has to prove himself if he wants more. A player like Nathan is likely to put in the effort for the team that gave him a chance to play.
