The most high profile 6/7 who spring to mind who can kick goals too are Lockyer and Orford. However both are knocking on a bit and would surely command a huge wage.

Would take either. We need some direction out there.

Would also like to see us sign a centre or wing with some quality. We have nobody out there who can create something out of nothing and get us out of trouble. In the past we've always had someone like that, a Newlove, a Vainikolo, even Phil Ford.

If we get a quality halfback we could do with a some cutting edge.

Looking at the academy we have some good forwards coming through so the emphasis needs to be on the backs.

If that's the case they could do with announcing them now to try and raise the spirits a bit.

Which may dampen Deacon's spirits and make him play even worse ( if that's possible) because he will then know hes on his way to the championship.

Who cares what Deacon thinks he knows he's here for another year no matter what.

any player who reacts like that needs to be shown the exit anyway.

A quality, consistant half back with some threat is the only priority for me next year. Without improvement there it wont matter who else we sign/resign.

I suppose so, if he continues to play that badly then i'd just drop him down to reserves permanently.

I can't see Deacon acting that way IMO, he seems professional enough.

Professionalism isn't his problem, it's ability.
