Squad recruitment seems to have stalled (with apologies if work is still going on in the background). In reality it is hard to pick a first 17 from what we have, best I could come up with is Rourke/Freeman at FB. Bullman and Eccleston Wings, Teare and Dixon in centres, Bishop and Doran in halfs, Walker Eaves and Tabu front row,  Aussie d Holliday second row Aiya at 13. Bench of Singleton, Bradley plus 2 others.

Still need to replace Williams and Graham and Taylor need to be resolved.

Would love to be proven wrong with a couple of Overseas players.

Graham and Taylor are staying at HAVEN this season surely. Any news on more squad incomings?

Forward are looking strong maybe een marginallly stronger than last year if the three overseas players match the level they've played at in Aus.

Backs look weak Dixon and Bulman are the only proven championship players in the backs imo.  Eccleston is sold but not going to win you games. Teare jury is still out at this level one try in eight games for us last season.

 We really need a couple of threats with pace in 1 -5 otherwise we will struggle.  We werent great in the backs last year but had a bit more than we do now.
