[quote="airliebird,runninglate!"]
Going forward for 2018 my preference would be if Ellis is going is a pack and bench something like

Bowden
Houghton
Taylor
Sika
Hadley
Watts

Impact prop
Green
Minichello
Connor/washy/fash/turgut or a couple of others[\quote]

Agree, like Watts at 13. Not heard much in terms of forwards we might be linked with. Need more impact in the mode of Paea, Feka, Pritchard IMO.

I'm not sure we need an impact prop as much as we need a 2nd rower who can create space out in the centres. One area we're a long way behind last season is back row IMO as last year they offered us plenty of go forward and made breaks and scored tries. This season they've been poor to average in terms of impact (not effort)

Agree with you and in ideal world we would sign a prop and backrower and sign an English winger.

Don't know why people are putting Connor on the bench, surely he is a first choice centre when all fully fit?

First two are good but not essential players. Rhys Evans offers nothing at all unless we are looking to formally appoint a scapegoat - we could even give him the number 4 to keep a certain poster happy.

Agreed with this, both are decnt players, but I wouldn't pay over the odds for either of these, think BJB agent has done a good job getting his name out there linked with other clubs to get the best deal for his client, all agents do this, I reckon Kelly's agent did this to get him a better deal at Hull.

I'd never spend big on a winger unless there were world class.

Hi Andy

Who's a world class winger? I can only think of 1.

Even players like Blake Ferguson aren't what you'd class as world class.

Powerful wingers who can clear their lines, break tackles, take bombs and finish when given the chance.
