I hope, and think he will be used as a secondrow forward as a direct replacement for KPP.

We have plenty of young props we don’t need another. We need 2 older experienced forwards to replace Mago and Singleton not 2 kids.

I also expect us to sign another secondrow. I don’t think we need any backs.

I agree, backs just aren’t needed. We’ll make room on the cap and quota by Cust leaving and Mago, Singleton and KPP will also leave. We lost Bateman going in to the season, so I’d say now we should be on the hunt for a couple of experienced forwards (a prop and an out and out second rower) and then if there’s money left in the pot, they might be able to get in another project style signing in at prop (people mention Eseh at Wakey but I can’t say I’ve been blown away when I’ve watched him these last few weeks).

2 props & 2 second rowers

We could do with another Curtis Sironen.

Signed a new deal with us. 2 years I believe. He’s been our best forward this season.

Yep, big experience tough back rower. He was immense yesterday.

I do think if cust leaves we could do with signing another playmaker with fields injury record

Hampshire will cover the halves.

Don't really follow the NRL, anyone know how Ryan Sutton is doing at Canterbury?
Not a fan of bringing players back, they never seem the same but an English prop coming into his prime I'd make an exception for.
