Well it seems easier said than done.

What good English talent do you recommend?

I know a few (especially on here) are sick of the Aussie's coming over and underperforming, and rightly so, but what British players do we feel could lift us up a few levels?

there's plenty around if you look hard enough - the Giants have got some crackers for the future picked up from national leagues etc

We've got Mathers, Riley, Bridge, Penny, Grix, Cooper, Mitchell, Blythe, Harrison who are all young (ish), English and talented (ish). I'm sure there are one or two in the reserves who will come through and I hope three or four in the academy. Add a couple of signings this year and we'll do what you want. I doubt we'll see four or five overseas signings.

Our three 2009 signings were British.

What a bloody disgrace it is that kids like Bobby Goulding have been snatched from right under our noses.
We should really employ a talent scout, y'know. Someone should write to the club.
