When I hear the rumours flying around about Finch and now Lima possibly leaving at the end of the year and obviously us already losing Leuluai it brings it home how we need to make sure we start getting English players in our pivotal positions because to stay at the top we can't afford to keep having these rumours and departures each year.
Russell at 1 with Sam at 6 is looking more and more favourable at the minute. Hopefully we'll still have Finch to go in at 7 but if not then we'll have to sign a top class replacement. Id also be targeting Daryl Clark from Cas before Wire inevitably do. He's a class act at 9 but could also jump in the halfs or at loose forward and he'd open up a lot of options for us.

Great point. It's something I've advocated on here for a while. Leeds have had the success they have because of stability in key positions, and the same apply's to Saints of old.
As for Daryl Clark I've made my feelings known about him on here before. He'd be my #1 target of all the youngsters currently running around in SL. The kids one hell of a player. Surely the Joel - Saracens money should be in our possession by now. Let's use it.
We're so close to building a team that can challenge continually for years to come. We just needs those last few pieces of the jigsaw.
