As good as McGoldrick has been, I don't like the idea of him being a first choice in our halves next year.

Great player, I like him a lot but don't expect he'll be first choice in any position next year. (Not at FC anyway)

I hope we keep him, he would give great strength in depth along with Horne, Seymour, Whiting, Pitts, Green, Galea, Lineham, Crooks and Hopefully Aspinwall,

I'm really pleased with the signings so far and trust Gentle and AP to deliver some more. Gutted that Chase deals seems dead but the whole recruitment issues were never going to be fixed in one season. We are a million percent better off than this time last year so we should be happy.

If as expected Johnson, Mcdonell signs and Seymour stays. I think we have a squad capable of finishing in the top 4 (to be honest we weren't far off last year).

FB

Mcdonell
Horne
Shaul

W

Briscoe
Lineham
Crookes

C

Yeaman
Arundel
Crooks

HB

Holdsworth
Seymour
Nicklas

P

O Meley
Lynch
Watts
Green
Bowden
Johnson

BR

Ellis
Galea
Tickle
Westerman
Whiting
Pitts
Kent

H

Houghton
Heremia
Cunningham

28 man squad, would expect one more signing (another young halfback?)

Too many Forwards in my opinion , too light in Centres and FB unless we sign a class FB

At centre we have the three mentioned plus whiting and horne who could play there to a good standard.

2 good FB's and young back up player, looks Ok to me.

Halfback is still our major weakness, that combo really lacks pace.

I would defo 'lose' 1 forward and gain a Centre
