Signings for the next three years.

Post by damien morrissey »

Given that we are rebuilding the team currently and i know that this is complete guesswork who do you think we will sign over the next three years or who would you want us to sign taking into account that most contracts would be finished over this time.

SBW is one we all would like to see but the other two are intresting choices not two who would spring to mind immediatly but based on yesterdays performance could do a job for us.

For gods sake. Put yourself in the shoes of Briscoe! You've been pretty much shown the door of your home town club and forced to move god knows how many miles to get a regular first team place.

Would you go back? I think not!

I think we'll see Martin Gleeson playing for Wigan in the next few seasons. Also, think that we'll bring over a classy aussie half-back for the 2007 season with two quota spots being lifted by Dallas and Moran.

It all depends on how Kevin Brown develops next year. The pack looks about right to me. With so much weight and experience we will be much better placed to bring on Hargreaves, Hansen, Tomkins et al.

The backs are all over the shop. Briscoe back would be very good. I thought he had left of his own accord rather than under a cloud (as Robinson did?). As for the halves, I would not be shocked to see Orr go back to Cas for next year, and have us bring in another 6. If halliwell is coming in, presumably the plan is to see how he might go, interchanging with DV and Richards. I would rather have a high calibre half than Moran, but if everything else is working all around him, and, say Flether and Lockers are doing a lot of the organising (as Fletcher seems to do at Souths), he may be able to do a job for us... Gleeson also seems to have soemthing about him, as does Melling, so we may not need to look outside the squad. Losing aspinwall will of course strenghten us at one fell swoop.

Err, after that ramble, to conclude, Briscoe definitely, the rest way and see.
