I've got no doubt we'll be challenging for the 8 next season, and I think our minimum aim should be to be playing play off football next year

hopefullly you will get in the 8 as i like cas but it wont be easy and next season is going to be even harder so its going to be very close, your squad seems alot better with a bit more depth so hopefully you will get in the 8.
wheres kirk dixon going? when he was at hull he just seemed a average player really but since hes been at cas hes really developed and has become a good player with a decent boot on him aswell.

We should have made it this year, but a very heavy injury list resulted in an early season slump in form. If we'd had the strength in depth we've got next year, I think we would have got a few more wins. Hopefully this impressive strengthening will lead to the consistency required to be a comfortably top 8 side.

Not entirely sure it will be much harder, I've seen nothing in the recruitment of Quins, Salford, Wakefield, Bradford, Crusaders or Catalans that's particularly worrying and I don't think we've got far to go to being on a par with the likes of Huddersfield, Hull and Hull KR

No Emmit Man, that's harsh.

Don't think he'll displace Huby or Jackson and I think Fozzard and Walker compliment their qualities perfectly therefore making rotation simpler and effective.

Jackson and Walker both possess that good tackling quality although Walker offers impact going forward too. Fozzard and Huby will both offer the experience in making the hard yards.

I wouldn't rely on Fozzard to be a regular in the side - I stand correcting but he doesn't seem to have played that many matches in his last 2 seasons and i don't think thats purely down to better players keeping him out of the Hull KR & Saints sides.

He's played 36 SL games over last two seasons. That's 36/54, which is roughly 67% of games. He's also played in 3 Saints cup games, which brings his appearance percentage up to 68%. I'd be happy with him playing two-thirds of the season because we have Emmitt too and Snitch can always fill in too.
