Here (But Only for the Beer)

There was a lot of talk of Ben being Fev bound but with the flat cappers again falling at the penultimate hurdle (and Campbell's subsequent announcement that he will be taking his foot off the gas, on squad spend at least) who knows now?

The Yorkshire press, who are normally hot on the transfer speculation, suggested that most of the targets lined up for Fev are now available again. They believed that Ben Reynolds was a done deal even with another year in the Championship.

If Lammy can get Milford out of his lazy suspected attitude, He'll accompany Lockie with devastating effect, and destroy many SL teams next season. Reynolds is a decent champ player but, we need that important execution when it matters, and Ben just didn't have that most of the time.

Prior to last season's outset, when the general consensus hereabouts was that Joe M would be in the halves with Lam (kudos to Dick Jones as the naysayer), Bongser posed the question "Who will take the place kicks?"

He now asks the same question.

Re: Squad for 2024 : Wed Oct 18, 2023 10:19 am  
I have to say I’m a bit disappointed with recruitment for 2024 so far, we excelled in 2023 and finally stopped our yo-yo routine.

I completely understand the need to pad out the squad with young reserves but I was hoping to see some better quality signings considering Lams comments about shopping at the top table now.

We have been linked with Croft, Partington etc but as yet other than trout haven’t signed anyone that will improve the starting 13.

I know it’s only early but was hoping for a couple of wow signings.

Re: Squad for 2024 : Wed Oct 18, 2023 6:05 pm  
Totally agree with everything said so far. No impact to the 1st XIII starters, although Norman and Trout will definitely see game time from the bench. It can be argued that the starting 13 can compete in Super League, and the bench will be slightly improved. Wigan, Hull KR, Warrington and Leeds look to be recruiting well and Leigh are going for consolidation and creating a squad big enough to fulfill Reserve fixtures.

Still gaps in the halves, centres and hooker. Expecting Milford to fill one of those areas and would be happy for Sam Powell to fill the reserve hooker role. Possibly another overseas signing to replace Big Ben might strengthen the team.

Ok, maybe not Milford. Widdop and Austin still available. Widdop is a good goal kicker.

"Widdop’s next destination has yet to be confirmed." Nope not retired, but he is 34.

See Ridy won't be at Oldham next season. :D

Nor will Gregg or Blagbrough. Though Joe W will.

And, on all our yesterdays, Nene being home/baby sick then signing for Rowls is a strange one.
