5 from 5 : Sat Sep 12, 2015 7:30 pm  

Won 5 from 5 without looking like we could string an 80 minute performance together.

Now that we are safe we will probably go undefeated with Sheffield away and Salford home to come.

Looking at our team and signings for next year we badly need strike in the forwards both prop and second row.
Rover's centres for years have been targeted because teams consistently score tries.

I know we have Minns, Thornley and Clarkeson on board but still does not fill me with confidence.
Injuries aside our metres made in 2015 was awful this has to improve.

Thornley IMO could be a great signing, certainly if he discovers the form that made him a regular at Wigan.

He knows how to pass so his winger should score a hatful

Also helps when you have great finishers on the wings, as we do of course.

You are absolutely right and its something that Rovers are apparently attempting to address.
Don't be surprised to hear some positive announcements in the coming weeks.

I already did in a previous post several days ago. I said last week that there was strong speculation regarding at least two forwards joining roves next season but I would wait until there was a little more meat on the bone before throwing names into the hat.
However, if you want me to be a little more precise then all I can say is Rovers are apparently looking at a forward currently playing for Penrith with initials BMM plus another forward who is an Aussie international .
As I say, it is all speculation at the moment but those are some of the rumours currently circulating in the restaurants and HP bars.

Hopefully Peacock will have a big influence on our recruitment for next season.

If we're looking at Aussies who we getting rid of
