For Me; Carter (FB) Bulman & Thompson (W)  Taylor & Mossop (C) Dixon (SO) Phillips C (SH) Shakley & Kelly (P) Dowsett (H) Moore & Phillips (2R) Aiye (LF)

Riley, Newton, Coward, Parker (bench)

Thakery, While, Wilkinson, Bradley etc to cover

Still think we need a couple more quality players to give us a reasonable chance of surviving

We've signed Asa Boas apparently but the RFL are being ***** with helping to renew his Visa.

Story I was told its not the rfl playing silly burgers its down to the club  submitting the forms to the immigration  authorities  with basic schoolboy errors like the wrong general managers name - does nobody check the forms before submission  and why oh why do the board never learn from their previous  mistakes. IT'S NOT ROCKET SCIENCE just basic administration!!!!!!

Love it if the alleged signing comes to pass. Hope it might be true. Blame game is difficult, coz how does any fan know if it's true? How does anyone know the (negative) detail is true? At the moment it's just rumours...

Just hoping he settles in quick as he will be a massive part of the squad looks a quality player after watching his videos on YouTube

Boas has given backward allegedly and now isnt coming.

Bit late in the day to be recruiting a quality player in such a pivotal position.

Could be a LONG season unless we pull something out of the proverbial hat!
