Wouldn’t mind signing Kikau’s second row partner Josh Wong - he looks a good strong runner and his support play against Italy ,who admittedly were poor , was immense. Obviously that’s a quota spot so probably won’t happen given our suggested signing of Clifford or another import half .

You beat me to it, was going to post similar sentiments, he was excellent and looks a real prospect as I believe he is a very young forward and maybe his club would allow him to cut his teeth in SL. I thought he was the next best forward after Kikau and would be great in the British game.

Not sure what’s going on with Clifford but been told this morning that the club are keeping an eye on second rowers throughout the World Cup

A 7 has to be our priority, so unless we can either sign an British 7 or release an a contracted overseas player I can't see it happening.

TS wants a back row, but a 7 will take priority now

Hopefully we’ll hear some thing this coming week.

Be nice to have Clifford confirmed this week, once that is sorted I will be fairly happy with the squad, be nice to add another forward, but think the cap constraints might stop that happening.

Not much quality available as seen by Wakey signing Proctor, absolutely amazed he has got a deal, looks a panic signing (like Reynolds for us) maybe a little worried about Leigh and their recruitment.

Not impressed by Leeds last use of overseas quota, signed two props now that play 10 minute spells, look week in the centres too, with Sutcliffe and Hardraker gone and Newman's injury problems,
