Interesting- hope that’s in addition to McQueen and not instead of. I like Livett. I do worry that Watson can’t /won’t recruit outside what he already knows though- not sure where that leaves us going forward!
I’m glad we haven’t been successful with Watkins. His days are long gone, and unlike Leroy hasn’t the affiliation to our club as that extra incentive.

Totally agree re Watkins, I've been blown away by the performances of both McQueen & Cudjoe, both have been outstanding - this has been Cudjoes best season for a fee years ow.

Would you say Livett is an upgrade on Roberts - as he's left to join Newcastle Thunder.

Livett is definitely a better player than Roberts, Roberts promised so much but plateaued quickly. Due to injury and lack of game time never really shone again following that excellent season where he was picked for Ireland.
So an upgrade there yeah. But not as good as what we have as first choice.

Watkins isn't coming. But he's been outstanding this season in the second row
