Always admired Isaac Luke, when he’s the right side of the line. On his day top class.

One of the biggest signings actually would be Ryan Carr as Assistant Coach for me. He looks a real prospect and I hope we get him at Leeds. Could be successor to Agar quite credibly.

Carr leaving Fev regardless. Had a big fall out over there, and not on speaking terms with management. Not sure if this effected Leeds.

Yes I do hope we're not only bringing in a replacement for Merrin but also an additional 1 or 2. We needed Merrin plus 1 at very least in the pack

Looking on Twitter and Craig Harrison is pointing to the fact we prized Corey Hall away from Wigan? Anyone know much about him?

Mentioned him yesterday in the Academy thread, think he's a Sheffield Hawks junior, he's a Centre/Winger who was very highly rated in Wakefields scholorship, joined Wigan as a first year Academy player last season, he's very young for his age group and only missed still being scholorship eligible last season by a month. Despite being one of the youngest players in Academy Rugby he was Selected for Yorkshire Academy last season and just been selected for England Academy. Going to be some size, pushing 6'2 and over 14st already. Very happy with this signing.

Well as long as we are lining up and talking to clubs / agents / players about signings not just this year but ahead for 21 then I’ll be happy.

We’re not going to be able to rectify all our squad in one hit admittedly but put a solid foundation down now and adding quality is the way to go. No more projects.

Just had a look at his highlights,big fast and powerful looks a very good prospect for either centre or wing.

Does anyone know when the time limit for Merrin to make his mind up actually is?

No but you would think the club wants to begin pre-season in November with all its ducks lined up (at least re. Merrin's replacement so that the team can gel from the beginning).
