Comings and Goings : Fri Oct 19, 2018 10:57 am  

Like everyone else I am really pleased with the signings and retentions made by the club so far. It's bringing a real feelgood factor back to the club at long last.

Who else would we like to sign (be realistic) and who do we think should be let go?

Personally I would have liked to have seen more of Jordan Andrade, I think he has the attributes to be a decent prop.

Thoughts?

Personally I can see Milton going Minchella moved to loose and another 2nd row... Andrade could take him or leave him but if he can’t train he can’t play simples

I think we’re ok for props but if a big nasty championship prop was available I wouldn’t say no.

Crossley
Bustin
Green
Peltier
Wood
Kirk
Magrin
Wilson


There’s a fair amount of competition there, although Wood may be seen more as a 13.

Prop, 2 backrowers, Centre, Utility 3/4

thought Andrade had already been let go a while back?

think wood and halas will be sharing loose forawrd with minichella storton two main 2nd rowers so we probably need at least one more 2nd rower, although some of props could fill in there. another experienced prop wouldnt go amiss as while we have plenty of number there beyond peltier and crossley thetir all relatively inexperienced. Probably another Centre needed if Oakes is going as has been rumured. And either Chisholm re-signed or a replacement.

What happened to Evan Hodgson? He looked a useful prospect for second row last season, and hasn't been seen at all this season.

I'd like one more aggressive prop (someone in the Sironen mould) and an aggressive back-rower

Re: Comings and Goings : Fri Oct 19, 2018 3:00 pm  

I would like an aggressive prop to cover for injuries and rotation.

I must say, bulls must be spending some real ££££££ for next season with the signings we have made already

I really don't think we're spending "serious" money. A lot of the squad are still PT.
