I know he has a good business to fall back on after retirement but at 32 would it not be a little early to retire for Tag? I would certainly give him a year deal

He might well have just had enough, had a few painful injuries the last 2 + years same as Houghton. Must get to the point when you don’t want to run into brick walls anymore.

I don't think we will be getting another winger with us getting Tindall, but Laitia Moceidreke is rumoured to be SL bound. He is a huge winger, quite young

IMO keep Tag, Mint and Dre plus hopefully 4 overseas (Hooker, Prop, Scrum Half and 2nd Rower), Ashworth, Tindall, Bentley plus one more winger/centre for me

You think Bentley coming?

Just a rumour mate not definite

That sounds good to me but do you think we need another winger/centre as a squad player?

If retained (injury permitting obviously) Mitch would be a solid back up for both positions.

That's my take on it. Mcintosh and Tindall first choice with Barron and Martin as back up. Mitch if retained to cover winger and Centre.

If the rumoured salary Mitch was on a few pages back, we should definitely be keeping Mitch.

A bit off topic, but look at Duprees stats this season, really poor since the transfer speculation. https://www.superleague.co.uk/player/1477/tyler-dupree Should have took the money when they could, said at the time it was a massive gamble for a player who had one good season.

Every time I’ve seen Dupree he’s not looked great. Doesn’t look fit and his stats aren’t great. His one thing is, he’s pretty good at appearing in the right place and dropping on a loose ball.

I wouldn’t want us spending 150k on him but I’d take the risk on a free
