Not to cause any alarm but think the SKD rumour has some legs....

Who does he replace at Centre - our captain, or our new signing? That is a bad signing. I know "In Smith We Trust" - but that signing will take some doing

My guess would be wing. Links up with what HDM said about us after a winger.

I'd stay well clear, but seems no smoke without fire

Why would we sign SKD when he’s at the age he is? I’m not too fussed about Wynne either,as though he has some talent,he’s a bit of a loose cannon at times.One game he was shifted from FB to the wing as he was completely losing his sh*t! If he enjoys his drinking pals and Salthouse tavern then he will be the next one to fall away from the sport

Surley we can't waste a quota spot on a winger

Although I've been told we've offered Trout upwards of 100k which is mental

Is it that mental? It’s probably less than what Taylor and Evans salaries. The salary cap is also 2.8m right (before we take exclusions into account)? For a starting player who will improve during the contract it would be about right wouldn’t it.

Think its a bit steep for someone who isn't an international yet. Maybe that's just me

Hope we keep well clear of SKD.
Smith and Gene were bad enough ffs!
