i would get him and sell washy

He fits the bill of the squad. Not wanted but has shown he can do it. Would probably buy into the team ethos and spirit. Could go well

sell him to who?

Our priority is not another backrow forward.

Walshaw and Trout are better players than McCarthy.

can someone explain how we can bring in players when we haven't yet reached our target to even keep the ones we have now

No i can't mate.

Money will be extremely tight even if we sell 3000 STs and it's an area that can be covered with players we've already (hopefully) in Aiton, Washbrook, Annakin, Trout and maybe Walshaw. We don't need Mcarthy.



Any money will be needed on an experienced scrum half and at least another prop after losing Smith, Amor and Wilkes. Need to raise the finances first....

Whatever happens we are going to need some players from somewhere as we can't raise a team with what we currently have. So unless we hit 4k season ticket sales, which is highly unlikely, then we will be selling higher earning players to spend there salaries on more players overall. So if a couple of our biggest earners and more sort after guys are backrowers then McCarthy may yet be a handy signing. Don't rule anything out yet, i would be very surprised if the 15/16 players we have now are all here in a month or two.

I would imagine kyle amors wage is now available and also depending on wether tuson comes or not.

Think McCarthy would cost more than Trout, Annakin or Walshaw and they'll do for me if we can keep them as back row regulars.





If we need a couple of bargain basement props let's recruit from championship if we get some limited funds. Maybe Tom Lillycrop, Keegan Hurst or Colton Roche....



Roche was Mark Aston’s only forward signing ahead of the 2013 season but the Eagles’ boss had a chance to assess the player after picking him for Ireland in the autumn internationals.



Aston added: “Colton won’t find it too difficult. He’s got a big future and will be a kid people will take notice of. He can play front row, second row, he’s an athlete.



“We are going for mobility and speed and Colton has got all them.”

Every time I read that name, I think of Corrie.



Bring our own in.
