If Vagana is off quota then I think its between Bain or Boothroyd as I suspect we might want at least one big name Aussie signing.
However I think it’s always in the pack where promoted clubs suffer, so there is a huge logic on concentrating most of your quota on forwards, especially when they have had a season together.
I don’t care what anyone says, it’s still forwards who win games.
I certainly think they are a big part in winning games.
Bain is on a 2 year deal so that’s pretty much it for our quota unless Vagana comes off then it may allow one spot if Boothroyd is on a 1 year or we nagotiate a release.
If we had a big player to come in it would be a quality second row or centre for me who could do some damage on the edges. Though I absolutely would take a quality halfback.
Think we already have the makings of a good SL pack in Rodwell, Atoni v2, Uele and Vagana who are all except Atoni hitting mid 20s. We could do with finding another quality English prop unless Bowden is doing another year.
It’s a bit hard to guage what we need atm with so many gaps and needs to fill but ultimately we need a handful of quality SL players to add to what we have (from the top half of SL) and a couple of promising younger lads to develop.
