Chris Green has been going well at Doncaster, think we may go with Manu, Tickle, Westerman & Green in the back row, with maybe Kent and Cunningham on dual contracts backing them up. As for a prop, we may well have to look at paying a fee to get a release for someone early.
I don't know how good/ready Green is but having only those 3 for the backrow (as good as they are) is a concern when injuries hit.
Props are going to be very hard to find and IMO we look a little short there too.
I'm quite happy with our signings so far and our 1st choice starting pack is very good indeed but I just hope that we're not going to go into next season with very little forward cover.

Possible backups - Green, Aldous, Kent, Cunningham, Washbrook and Burnett.
I would like one more foward minimum so that we had more experience in the back up department.
Those academy players that you list Paul, are not genuine forward cover for a side that wants to compete at the top of SL. If we have as few as 2 or 3 injuries at the same time, we are completely up the creek.

You mean like Wigan who last year whilst winning the GF and topping SL were using players like Farrell, Tuson, O'Carroll, Prescott, Marsh, Charnley etc etc.

Exactly! You're genuinely happy to go with a bunch of young unproven forwards in our squad?
Do you honestly think that they're as good as Wigan's, Saints' etc...

I love Jamie and have done since he was 10 years old.

Exactly Paul, and how many posts do we get slagging the club off for not promoting youth.
