I can't agree with this. Eccles is putting faith in signings that he can mold into a competitive SL team, more than the sum of the parts. Eccles has been at London a long time, knows the potential of the former Broncos he's signing and after the promotion we should have some faith in his decision making.
Yes I think this is the point. On the face of it we’re light on SL recruitment but it looks like there will be a good team atmosphere where they all get along and that helps drive performance. My slight concern is you can only recruit ‘internally’ so to speak for so long before the well runs dry. In the past players from the North have come in and gone but would have been able to tell their pals back North that playing for London holds benefits and ensures others look at it as a viable option.
