Think you have it nailed (although not sure about 7th) we lack some creativity and pace, so we are going to have to tough out wins.

Relating to Fash, he went backwards massively last year, apart from trying to be the hard man he just didn't look fit.

Previously he was the most committed of the forwards, always giving 100%.

Hopefully the new regime got him fitter & back playing to his strengths ? Lack of metres made or tackle busts always been a worry though.

Fingers crossed for him.

That’s the main issue with him (when his discipline is okay), the lack of go forward. When’s he’s 1 of 4 props, we’re effectively a prop down.

Fash was ok when played at 13 with 4 decent props but he's nowhere near effective enough as a prop. Unless asiata is injured he won't get a look in at 13 obviously

Dont forget the payoff Steve
Abdull was on a three year deal so likey he was given a minimum of 1 year payoff which would not be cheap,
Holmes to me is looking to go the same way

Abdull pay off doesn't effect you and me and any other fans and he doesn't count on the cap so don't see the issue, the owners can afford it and will have ratified it, your just stirring the negative boring drivel you spout week in week out. Permanent jibes at the club if you are not happy don't go and carry on sitting on your keyboard day in day out slagging the club off.

Moy has travelled over with the squad, maybe just a coincidence he was with the injured group.

EDIT: Looks like full squad has travelled so we will see

it's good that we've taken everyone. An important part of the team bonding
