We need to get Cooky match fit and bring in one more decent sized prop then we can have Chris Hill and Mike Morrisson in the second row, alogside Armistead. Our present second rowers are too small. Durbin, Marshy and Watson (speed, strength and organisation) Jock on the bench. Donlan fullback for defence and Morty fullback for attack and kicking. That leaves Stanton, Smith and Higson. What a team!

Its an overseas utility as is the one i am hoping for but they, i, we arn't saying!

Still on the tails of Blaney?

Is it the one you told me about?

he hasbeen refered to on another thread a few days ago, Tongan 'International' with NL1 experience, and if its true his old club have cut the players wages I can't see how they can afford him now.

If it's him, 'Haven were having visa problems, before their wage cuts. It seems that Tongan internationals qualify for a visa, at some clubs, but not others! Perhaps we should ask the Crusaders to sign him, and then loan him to us? Bingo, visa problem overcome!
