Glad we've signed some outside back depth ahead of Friday deadline, good moves. Checked out his highlights reel on YT as I couldn't recall seeing Egodo. Looks a handful and I can see him starting on Sat, with Jy going into the starting 13 once fit ahead of Grant.

don't think theres a limit on number you can have training. only allowed 5 in playing 17 though.

Only 4 of the 5 can be dual reg too, but that's largely irrelevant for us. Laithwaite being out for the season has freed up a spot. I would think it quite likely Johnson be dropped if he was as bad recently as some have said, especially since Egodo has played quite a bit of centre before, so he may be the one to slot in there until Smith or Gibson are back.

Egodo nearly signed with us in 2015/16 but we went into Admin 3 before it was all confirmed. Whenever I've seen him he looks decent, very direct strong runner and I expect him to play in the centres.

possibly another winger arriving before deadline as well. rumours going round about Pownall.

Yeah saw that. Another loan though from Toronto via Barrow - I'm losing count.

I was expecting a prop from Toronto tbf. They've got about 8 senior props I think, they can't need them all...

Out of the 8 props in their squad, the ones who've played least are Lussick (8 games), Bussey (10 games) and Krasniqi (14 games). Lussick joined part way through the season so understandable for him. Bussey is in the 19 for today. They're using them all.
