Flash started 4 games last season in the league and took part in 14 in total including challenge cup. Without wanting to under state his contribution it was time to pack it in. I'd have kept welham for another another year lol but he didn't want it and high class centre's we ain't exactly short of, being replaced either by our best two players from last season or championship winning Watkins.
They all have shown that extra throughout their careers so I'd not worry about it.
Squad looks fantastic for next year easily the best I can remember balance wise and I'm frothing at the widgy to see how we get on 👍

Got the players but got to make a team now. That's the tough bit.

This isn't the shitshow of coaches that we've had before though, Ian Watson excepted. Look at what he did at Halifax and tell me we aren't swapping like for like with the new and old coach?
Let's also not underestimate the role of Ian Blease over the last few years.

I'm guessing that A enforced Lockdown starts at €500. |

So which hookers are around Dec Patton ? Possible its Patton he played there for Wire over a Season - assuming we've filled our overseas spots who else is available that is UK based? If its not Patton then may be a Championship player? Marshall must have a target in mind. |

Cadiz FC in Spain have the strapline: 'The fight is non-negotiable'
If we have the 'fight' in us, we can do something special next season with this team.
Over to you Marshall and Orr.
Bring it on.

Team for the first match Escare Sio/Inu Watkins Sarginson Burgess Tui Brown Lussick Addy Mossop Greenwood Lannon Taylor Ika Livett Johnson/ Burke/ Pauli/ Roberts Ackers If we don’t sign another hooker my guess will be that Ackers will start and Atkin will be cover for hooker and halves on the bench Too many choices for back row and the last bench place!!! Other than that, it looks like the strongest line up to me. Will be fascinating to see what Marshall makes of everyone and the decisions he makes |

Biggest selection headache has got to be who starts on the opposite wing to Burgess. Inu, Sio, Williams?? An embarrassment of riches.

Yes,the second row will work itself out but ,on the face of it,his real selection dilemma is in the three quarters. Sio may not be fully fit. Williams would be very unlucky but I think he’ll start with Inu. As much as anything we need a goalkicker. I still have a sneaking feeling that Escaré may come under pressure. |

With Patton being the final piece in the puzzle what would your 17 for round 1 be?

How big is our squad now? It has to be the largest squad we've had in SL, and probably one of our best on paper. Can only be a good thing going forward. My first 17 would be:
1. Escare
2. Inu
3. Watkins
4. Sarge
5. Burgess
6. Brown
7. Tui
8. Mossop
9. Addy/Patton
10 Lussick
11. Lannon
12. Greenwood
13. Taylor
Bench:
Livett
Ackers
Any number of second rowers that we have
