If we keep Muzza, Simon G and sign Scott and Lee Smith it will be more like Geriatrics and the Pacemakers.

Can't see us signing Smith to be honest or at least I hope not. Rather than him could try and sign someone with raw talent like George Tyson, at least he has potential to get a lot better. Hooker, Halfback and at least one centre for me all with good passing skills because our passing in key positions is shocking hence why our backs never seem to have any time.

Mentioned Ben in last weeks press that RM was keen to sign him but funding could prove to be a stumbling block?

This weeks press in connection with Fax stated that Adam Tangata had been offered an improved deal.

I've heard that Adam has signed for another club as Fax wouldn't get a contract sorted with him. If that's true its a poor do!

Struggling to ascertain what is fact and what is fiction at the moment . It all feels very loose . I wouldn't want kava agh certainly at the expense of not retaining Adam. I know he hasn't had his best season but has been plagued by injury this year . It would be nice for some clarification ie is Brendan Moore staying / going or what? Obviously it's that time of year but it just feels unsettling.

My guess is that announcements will be made re the end of season player merrygoround once the season has finished.
Hoping my numbers come on on the lottery this Sat then we can sign some class to help us get into SL

That’s how it usually works.
Coming toward the end of the campaign the coach will have an idea of who he wants to retain and who he wants to bring in depending on the areas where he thinks need strengthening and he will sit down with the BoD to see what the club can do but they never get everything they want.
Apart from the usual rumours rarely is anything announced until the season is over with any incoming players still playing at their current club etc.
