Huddersfield looking good for next year. Top 5 side for me if they gel. Good too see tbh and let’s hope they attract some fans to watch the team

Great signing if true and even better if we keep Ava if not another one please.
Still think we need a decent FB.
But doubt that will happen.
Another CC win and top 5 will be a success for me next year.

IMO fullback is way down list of priorities. If true another middle even if Ava stays which judging by the silence seems unlikely. If you are looking at the backs then maybe a classy SO or centre before fullback but now I am dreaming.

Assuming the Tetevano deal is done, I’d still like to see a British Prop (Thompson?) and if Ava goes, another one too.

That would do for now, we bring the kids through some more and then recruit again for what we need after another season reviewing. Pace should be a priority for next closed season recruitment.

As much as i agree Tetevano is likely to be a Marquee salary. I can't see Thompson coming back for anything less than a Marquee salary unless he is absolutely desperate to return to England.

If ava leaves we need two props.not sure we'll get the quality we need in this country.hopefully theres enough diamond we can pick up from aus.or maybe get merrin back.

All depends on cap space.

Can’t see Merrin coming back and he is not the big enforcer we need

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Thu Dec 24, 2020 5:18 pm  

I agree.keep ava or buy another big lad.
