I make us having 22 players - definitely need a specialist centre and loose forward
If the quality was available those in bold would drop down to back-up status

2 Dixon
3 Thompson
4 Arundel
5 Owen
6 Chase
7 Orr
8 Huby
9 Milner
10 Emmitt
11 Snitch
12 Jones
13 Ferres

14 Clark
15 Walker
16 Jackson
17 Massey

Back-ups: Youngquest, Hudson, McGoldrick, Holmes, Davies

with our current squad

owen
youngquest
arundel
thompson
dixon
chase
orr
huby
milner
jackson
ferres
jones
hudson

clark
emmit
walker
holmes

but we need another centre, 1 (preferably 2) props, and a big 2nd row/loose meaning hudson, jackson, can become back up players and thompson either moves to the bench or is back up.

hopefully we will face wakey on the opening week something like this

owen
youngquest
arundel
new centre
dixon
chase
orr
huby
milner
new prop
new second row
jones
ferres

clark
emmit
walker
thompson

Without doubt Owen as to be at full back next season, he is the best number 1 we have and I think he will thrive there. Milner and Clark interchanging at hooker, so Mathers, Mcgoldrick and Hudson are going to find it hard to get in to the team. Would like to see a quality centre, prop and back rower brought in, and I think we have a good quality squad next season with good strength in depth. My only worries are that let's say Owen, Clark and Chase have big seasons, they are going to be much sought after players and the big fish will be after them.

I would agree with this.

The irony that two blokes on supposed big money (Hudson & Mcgoldrick) can't get a look in says it all about our club...nobody else in Super League would have gave them 4 year deals... Dickie had a real brain fart there

I'll be looking to bring in a quality loose forward, another quality second row and use Thompson off the bench and probably a big beefy prop too.
