Good thing we don't need young British props that are academy trained.

Holroyd is one of 4 SL props Souths are interested in. Tom Amone from Leigh, and George Delaney at Saints are 2 of the others. I doubt Holroyd goes anywhere at the moment. Frankly, he hasn't even shown his body can handle consistent SL game time, so Souths would be mad to go for him, at this point, IMO

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

This Holroyd story seems like BS to me, why would Souths be interesting in a bloke who can't seem to get on the field regularly in SL? No doubt he has the potential to be a good player, but availability is a great ability to have and at the moment he comes up short there.

South’s are a basket case at the minute. They are spent to cap and squad needs an overhaul. They probably see the SL market as a realistic way to change things up for 2025. They probably think all young, promising British props could turn out like Burgess brothers……

Now then everyone, I’ve been working away again and I’ve not been able to comment on this rabble of a season nor have had any updates on intel. I knew Fraudley wouldn’t work out and it hasn’t. Our spine doesn’t work and our props aren’t big enough, bar Lisone. Sangare is like Earl Crabtree, has so much size and the potential to be a barn stormer but run into challenge like a cuddly animal! Along with Rohan’s terrible tactics and persistence our inability to attract young players without throwing money at them is horrible. In my opinion we have been very lucky to get the amount of wins we have this season. Anyway I know this is the wrong board to say this so here is my update from my mate who has supposed to have been more in the know due to his new position, however it seems things are kept really quiet apart from a few things he managed to get and this is genuine. It seems we have an interest for French players as we have offered Julian Bousquet a 2 year deal as of quite recent, not sure on what will happen. Rhyse Martin has been offered a new 2 year deal aswell but he’s still undecided. A hunt for a new 7 has already started apparently aswell. Save the best till last. Again this no bullshit from me at all. We have offered and are close to agreeing a marquee deal for Josh Papalii. Now I hope that comes off and Leeds are confident they can. I’m not sure how updates I’m going to get but I will try. Happy bank holiday!

Would all make sense.
Two more big bodies in and one of them an NRL marquee.
Rhyse to stay.
Fusitua out and Hall in to create the OQ spot.
And try to move Frawley (Fraudley....lol) on and bring in a new 7.
In hindsight we should have gone for Clune.

For me, we should go all out for Mikey Lewis and keep an OQ spot for wing or back row.
But that really is dreamland.

Hull KR are minted now, and Lewis is marquee. No chance he goes anywhere unless it's the NRL

Wakefield but near to Leeds!

We should have thrown money at Lewis 2 years ago but I think that ship has sailed.
I`d be quite happy to see if we can move Frawley on which I know will likely cost us and play Sinfield there for the rest of the season.
Catalans interested in signing Handley.

Handley has been great this year and Sinfield could be our 7 in a year or two if he keeps progressing. Losing either would be beyond stupid.

No idea on the two mentioned, don't watch much NRL these days and not up on French players.

Sangare also reminds me of Feather / Crabtree /etc.
