I wonder if we'll see Harrison Hansen move up to front row on the next couple of years. He's only 27 and IMO would make a superb prop forward with another stone in weight. He's tough, durable and quick enough, plus a brilliant defender.

We have Hughes, Farrell, Tuson and Lloyd for the back row spot.

If it this case that Mossop is leaving, aswell as the others. Then I really do fear the worst. The massive optimism for the near future that I had in 2010 is rapidly disappearing.

Possibly. I expect Hughes to play a lot more games next year and become a fixture in our strting 17. Lloyd will get more game time in 2013 and then become a fixture thereafter. I think both these lads are extremely talented and I fully expect them to play at the highest level.

Hughes and Lloyd may be very talented but it is a big gap to bridge between U20s and SL. Lloyd has little SL experience and Hughes quite a bit now.
What I noticed though in the play off game v Catalans was when Matty Smith came on Hughes was spelled. He looked exhausted and could hardly put one foot in front of the other. That was after about 20 mins.
They could well be bench players next year but are a couple of seasons away from going 80 minutes however talented they are.

As someone else asked, why does a rumour need to be sent as a PM on a board called Rumours and signings!? If you know/think you know/have heard something/made something up/got a text from your uncle's neighbour's dog/rooted through Ian Lenegan's bins then JUST POST IT!
