Yeah, that's how I know a lot better. First person I thought of though when I saw that image.

Not Baille. Another out of leftfield.

apart from that we've got 3 months on pointless player interviews to fill papers with.

Couldn't care less, if we have3 months of boring player interviews. I'm just glad we've done all our recruitment and our squad will spend full pre-season together.

Any clues for tonight bullseye. Position?

Funnily enough my immediate thought was Robbie Paul.

On the assumption that we're announcing 5 players tomorrow night, who would be your ideal 5? Keep it realistic!

I'll go:

Clough
Tahraoui
Walshaw
Baile
Half back? (I have no idea who)

In order of (my) preference :
1. Half Back ( see below)
2. Clough
3. Roberts
4. Pitts
5. Welham
6. Tahrouil

Roberts is the only member of this years current squad whose future has not been announced. I know there are persistent rumours that he's off to the Giants but if we can keep another product of our youth system we should.
It's well worth taking a punt on Welham. He's still young and not so long ago was talked about as an international.
As for half back as our overseas quota is full my earlier suggestion of Jordan Meads at Thunder is a non runner. I can't think of any non overseas half at a Super League club who is currently out of favour and likely to either stay that way or be affordable.
. So how about looking at the half backs at Keighley ( the experienced Handforth ) or Barrow (Campbell -- their man of the match at Halifax?

Our overseas quota is full but not our non-fed trained one if we're right about it being 7 next year (which appears to be backed up by londons recruitment). So we still have option of a non fed trained kolpak halfback.

It looks like somebody in a head band or bandage to me.

Found out who it is, definitely out of left field was worried when I saw the surname! But having seen the highlights on youtube looks a handful!
