have a feeling that Wakefield may avoid the drop now they have some confidence.
If Cas do go down then we should make a play for Broadbent.
Maybe also we should see how the new half goes at HKR.After watching the Derby and seeing our facilities compared to HKR if he seems to fit the bill maybe worth pursuing as an option

Broadbent has good potential, but not sure centre is a priority, we need forwards, then a winger and possibly a halfback.

We also can't risk basing our recruitment of a club going down.

I agree we do need to prioritise a half back but I think should Broadbent become available we should definitely be in the mix to sign him. Good age, good pedigree and versatile. Not often someone with that potential becomes so easily available.

But he won't be easily available, might not know until September, can't be waiting around hoping someone gets relegated to sign their contracted players.

Apparently Corey Norman is playing well for London.
Was surprised no one picked him up in Super League for this year.

Any one know if there’s any legs in the Woolford rumour?

Levi linked with Leeds, I’d be shocked if both left the raiders.

Levi would be a class signing to partner Houghton as he was a revelation last time. Risk since he only managed 12 months last time round.

Don’t know much in woolford, who’s the better player?

Tuimavave looks finished as a centre and we have no back up to Sutcliffe and Scott.
Sure we know what the priorities are but if a young talented back becomes available due to relegation then we should be interested.
