Trying to think realistically about a squad for next year:
1. Walker
2. Briscoe/Martin
3. Sutcliffe
4. New signing
5. New signing/ Tindall
6. Trueman
7. New signing
8. Ese’ese
9. New signing
10. Ashworth
11. new signing
12 Okunbor (he’s here and not paying off)
13. New signing
14. Pele
15. Balmforth/ New signing
16. Sao
17. New signing
18. Fash
19. Cator
20. Staveley
21. Litten
22. Lane
23. Armstrong
24. Jebson
25. Morgan smith
26. brown
27. Severs
28. Charles
29. Moy
30. Waignhouse
31. New prop
32. New Prop
33. New centre
Obviously, I’ve not included a few youth players who probably won’t be ready for first team IMO.
We need 7-8 additions to our 17 and then a further 3 to give our squad depth. And that’s Assuming Balmforth & Jack brown stay.
If Okunbor leaves that does give us opportunity to bring in another back rower but my gut says he stays. Gardner can go to play in the champ and laidlow needs to go out on loan and prove his quality. I’d probably try send severs & Jebson/Armstrong out again as-well.
