As long as we get someone who can be an enforcer I'll be happy. For a team with reputedly one of the best packs in the league we hit as hard as Playboy centerfold's pillow fight. Haven't seen any of our props bash anyone for a while now. Lauaki looks the most likely but is too erratic and i think the last one I saw do a good shot was Tickle....

With it looking like Fitzy going and with us missing out on Andrew Ryan (thank god). We seem to be looking at signing an old head with experience who plays in the pack. Now I'm not sure if he's just come back from an injury, but what about Nathan Hindmarsh? Was arguably the best back rower in the world 3-4 seasons ago and seems to be the sort of player we always go for lately. Kearney, Fitzy.

Not first choice player I'd go for but like I said, seeing as we tend to go for these old heads in the pack would people be happy with him?

In our league he'd be a top player.

Maybe a few years ago,he's been banged from pillow to post every season for the last few years,we need banged up players like we need a hole in the head.I just would like to think we could just get a coach with a different mind set who could get younger players playing to a proper game plan.

The thing for me is that the majority of our players is they seem to be solid (grafters) players and not enough flair or even able to break the line and make a decent amount of metres. Although I rate Tickle (for e.g) and every team needs a player like him, we have too many of them in the pack. How I'd love a Gaz Ellis type player in the pack, has everything to his game.

Think he signed for Widnes today with Lloyd white

We already have Fitz's replacement in Tickle.

Lauaki and Dowes should both go and be replaced from within.

Hopefully Gleeson and Obst will be released allowing us to use their money and quota spot on a overseas right centre.
