I didn't mean he would be a squad player; he would definatly be above graeme horne at centre in my eyes but i meant he would improve the overall squad

yeah I know. Sorry, what I meant was that if he moves he would probably want his next contract to be a biggy! That in mind and given we have little creativity he is not what we need.

no need to be sorry !! i completely agree with the above but there are not many options at centre at the moment and Agar doesn't seem to favour Whiting their

we need more than just long! A creative centre inside calderwood could mean 20 a season for him! We are a team of runners at the mo, and another passer would be ideal!
Personally would put whiting to 6 and move Horne to centre but can't see it.

I thought we tried to sign him last off-season in a chas + players deal but Wakey were not satisfied with the players being offered ?

They were never going to take chas off our hands though were they !! He is rubbish !!!!!

this would be ideal, you would have a set of bandling handling hands all down the line, the negative is does whitng have enough pace at 6??

I think he'd be ok tbh. Think the positives would outweigh the negatives. The other option is to play him at 13 but washbrook is far superior in that spot.

totally agree said before that whiting has a good rugby brain which makes up for his lack of pace and i would like to see him in the middle of the park.

I totally agree , but Atkins would be a good signing for us . Yeaman scored 20 + not so long ago from a one pass cooke.

When are we likely to hear next of players coming in ??
