I really wish we could get Bateman but I don't think we'll have a chance of getting him, he'll go to Wire like Jake said.

But like Paul said, the administrators will sell him to the highest bidder, regardless.

You think we'll outbid wire or leeds? They'll go where the player agrees to go anyway

Probably won't get Bateman but could easily get Whitehead.

I know lynch spoke to both players earlier in the season,selling the vision of the clubs future,and both players were impressed. So who knows,anything could happen!!!

will be bringing fullback and a halfback in for sure

So, going off confirmed signings and rumoured departures, we're looking at...



1. New fullback (hopefully not McDonnell as I don't rate him!)

2. New winger (Crookes apparently)

3. Joe Arundel

4. Kirk Yeaman

5. Tom Briscoe

6. Brett Seymour

7. New half back (hopefully Brough, but doubt it!)

8. New prop (rumoured Olivier Elima, wouldn't be a bad signing)

9. Danny Houghton

10. Andy Lynch

11. Gareth Ellis

12. Joe Westerman

13. Richard Whiting



14. Adam Heremaia

15. Liam Watts

16. New prop (NRL impact prop, although people are thinking Paea)

17. Either a back rower or a utility back (Horne).



Depending on the signings, there's definitely the nucleus of a good team there. If Tickle does go, I hope they give Whiting a shot at loose finally. He deserves it after all these years.

1. McDonnell

2. Crookes

3. Arundel

4. Yeaman

5. Briscoe

6. Holdsworth

7. Seymour

8. Lynch

9. Heremaia

19. ?

20. Lineham

21. Crooks

22. Briscoe Jack

23. Nicklas

25. Bowden

26. Cunningham James

27. Green

28. Pitts

29. Kent

*I can't see Kite coming but I think we'll sign that style of player.

? Young good players to cover key postions, could be from our own academy or we could move for other players (Brieley?)

1. McDonnell

2. Crookes

3. Arundel

4. Yeaman

5. Briscoe

6. Seymour

7. Brough

8. Lynch

12. Ellis

13. Westerman



14. Houghton

15. Whiting

16. Paea

17. Watts

I would be happy with that team, I think McDonnell would be a decent signing tbh, it is his first year in SL and like a few who play pivotal positions it can take a season for them to settle, his stats are very promising tbf. Also he would not be commanding top dollar so we could concentrate on throwing the big money at a new h/back, and like you say Brough hopefully

So Sharp? Have I missed some announcement?
