CAn't send an overseas player to another club. VISA issues I think.

Saddened is trying to get him deported.

Guessed as much. I can sort of understand the need to get on a certain players case if the individual is letting the side down . In the current situation however I would prefer we just enjoyed where we are at - especially after the trials of last year.

I think you take what he says far too seriously.

Getting Savelio, Thompson and Richards onto first team contracts will be as important a signing as any we make in the next few years imo

I imagine they will at least be part funded by the money we free up when Laffranchi, Wellens & Gardner depart at the end of the year . I cant see us signing a direct replacement for any of them

I'd disagree about boof - an experienced prop would be a good addition next year - though in the 50-100k range as opposed the 100-150k range boof is rumoured to be in!

That along with Wellens and Gardner will probably fund the signings of Savelio, Thompson, Richards, Greenwood and Charnock! The futures bright

I've said on the rumours thread that my two big targets for next year would be Daryll Clark and Marc Sneyd. In terms of a good, experienced prop who wouldn't cost the earth I would through Craig Huby's name into the mix.

(Sorry Cas)

Craig huby would be a very nice replacement for boof - I know there are a few doubters about him but his stats are comparable to Amors at the moment!

As for the other 2, whilst they would be wonderful, it will depend a lot on what hohaia, wheeler and Manu are doing. If lance stays, the only really need we have would be to replace wheeler if he's let go (gob and Williams are the two rumours so far) - if hohaia goes a high quality 6/ a backup 9 should be a priority, even if wheeler stays - Manu I think were capable of having as a nice addition if he stays, but no need for a replacement if he doesn't.

Both Sneyd and Clarke are under contract as well, which will complicate matters further!

Does anyone know much about any potential hookers in the reserves?
