Some good assessments of current squad and situation. So what about view on potential incoming and suggestions for players we can target, here are a couple of potential suggestion Gigot, Ritson? O'Brien, Taylor, Hughes, Briscoe all decent and all SL quality though later part of their careers are there any young guns not getting the opportunity we could attract?

I believe that Ritson is only aged 26. He will be 27 in January 2023. He is certainly fast and looks a lethal finisher, however, I think that there has been a lot of speculation already linking him with SL clubs for next season, particularly from Saints, who might be looking at him as a replacement for Regan Grace.

I've seen nothing either in the press or fan rumours to suggest that Leigh are interested in him.

I wouldn't want Gigot anywhere near, Toulouse look worse when he's playing. He's always been a rocks and diamonds player and it's been 99% rocks since Catalans won the CC. O'Brien and Hughes look to be nailed on, would take any of the other 3 in varying roles(Taylor would be 1st 17, Briscoe back up/rotation for instance). Don't think we'll go for Ritson, Lam seems to prioritise strength on the edges rather than speed as seen with Hitchcox being dumped fairly quickly despite not really doing much wrong. Would love us to tempt Chris Hill back to finish back at Leigh, Hudds are pretty stacked in the pack and have just added Harry Rushton so will need to let someone go. depending on who Hudds do let go in the pack, I'd happily see Nathan Mason back for a 3rd stint to add a bit of depth to our pack.

There isn’t 1 player in that Toulouse squad I would want at Leigh.

Chris Hill would be nice, still going well for Hudds but still under contract for next year. Warrington have been far weaker without him this year.

There is one more quota spot available to Bongser's understanding (but well who knows?) Were the young fellah to stay, Bongser should be well chuffed - he's put in some fine shifts since joining,

Is this insider knowledge? or would you like just like him stay?

Everybody would be delighted to see him action for Leigh next year.
