Signing 14 is 25 yrs old Jack O'Brien,who,like Sam Herron,arrives from quadruple winners Red Star Belgrade.

Jack is Australian by birth and has played for other clubs,including Hemel Stags in 2017.

He can play in a number of positions preferring to play in the pack.

The 16th member of the squad has been announced.

Prop Ross Price will be with us in 2019.

It seems he has been training well and earned the praise of head coach Kim Williams.

Ross showed huge promise last season.

Re: Playing Roster 2019 : Tue Dec 04, 2018 9:35 pm  

Some welcome news with the re-signing of 3 players from the previous campaign.

Morgan Jefferies,Dalton Desmond-Walker and Rowland Kaye commit for 2019.

Signings to take the squad to 21 in number are - Dan Maiden,who was with the club last year but did not feature. Ryan Shallish,from rugby union who has played for the Welsh national Deaf side in Australia. Both young men have really impressed head coach Kim Williams with their efforts at training. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VARIzkXawDM Press Report

Re: Playing Roster 2019 : Mon Jan 07, 2019 8:21 pm  

I seem to have omitted the signing of Dai Evans,a winger from the other code,which was announced on 28/12/18

Another former Scorpions player signing for the 2019 campaign is Chris Vitalini.

28 squad members names,thus far.

Re: Playing Roster 2019 : Wed Jan 09, 2019 7:00 pm  

The 29th player announcement is Mike Connor who has represented Wales at under age level in rugby league,

played for Scorpions,but also played and coached in the other code.
