Carty will have Cust playing like a prime Darren Lockyer.

Saying rest up and go again next year. A few of the players liking and commenting on his post. Still wouldn't be surprised if he does move on.

Yes, followed by black and white emojis. I thought he'd be moving on, in effect he's a reserve untility player.

Wasn't our worst this season by any stretch - in fact his try against London ultimately stopped us finishing bottom.

He puts more effort in that most but poor in terms of skill. Another baffling Tony Smith signing along with not big, quick, fast or elusive Tindall for the wing. Had we not wasted cash on these squad fillers we might have afforded a half decent 1st team player.

For me every player gets a clean slate under Cartwright, if they're here next season everyone starts fresh and Cartwright will make his own mind up.

Exactly this. I think there's been so much going on at the club in a number of different areas that culminated into what we saw last season. But it's time to draw a line under that. New coach, new backroom team, a still relatively new DOR and training facilities, new faces amongst the playing group. It's the very definition of a fresh start for me.

Agree with all of that, however players like Tindall and Smith, there isn't much more that you can get out of them, and they need to be moved on if possible

Any more news on the UK middle we supposedly trying to get in? So far names we have seen rumoured are...

Joe Bullock
George King
Sam Eseh

Amongst a few others, my personal choice would be King, was keen to stick around in the area and joining us would give him that option, he was linked with Huddersfield but not seen anything for a few weeks on that. Makes total sense to me.

Thoughts?
Names anyone?

Didn't King leave Rovers to be closer to family in West Yorkshire?
