Our players just make our lives too hard for themselves. Too many errors, leads to too much defending.

Do we sign too many athletes rather than rugby players who have competent handling skills..

Connor staying.

Not to put the cat amongst the pigeons but Connor is now staying.... looks the the rumour season is now in full swing.

God knows what to make now

You seem to have good access to the club or your connected.
Hope you’re right. Has Connor had clear the air talks? After saying he wants to win trophies and who doesn’t, perhaps he now thinks he’ll win them with FC. Tell His Bobness that the shift has swung back to us.

Longstaff looking doubtful too. Wire want 50k

Shame that

Can’t see many clubs paying a fee for players nowadays

I’m sure there will be plenty of twists and turns over the next few weeks.

I’ll get shot down in flames for this but was quite excited at the thought of Wardle coming in and potentially a new number 7.
For me Hoy is an out and out full back so not sure where that leaves Connor.

I'd love to see Smith get hold of Connor. I'd hope he'd have a similar effect on what he had on Briers. Who knows what will happen though

Maybe a deal for a 7 fell through? Maybe the club decided we had too many centres?

Re: Shopping List 2023 : Thu Sep 15, 2022 8:28 am  

Don’t have a natural 7 at the club really. Pivots look a bit unbalanced.
Wonder if McNamara will get a shot at it. Also, does anybody know what the status on Hookem is? Is he staying or going? He’s another potential half back who could be used.
