Would like to see Rocky get some more game time to show us what he can do in SL.
Ratchford is a decent player but I think Hampshire has the potential to be much better.

if you think we have stability meds you must be watching another team the saints game showed we are far from stable!
George Williams played Scrum Half all of the way through the academy....

Exactly, he is a Scrum Half, not a Stand Off and never will be!

We need to be looking at players with skills like Cooper Cronk not one trick pony's who stand out only because they have a big conk.

I can't believe nobody has suggested it before but if i were the coach id be trying to sign Albert Kelly from KR. He might frighten a police horse but he frightens super league defences a damn site more.

He doesn't frighten their attack though. He's a turnstile!

Whoever we sign, we'll probably make them look crap.

If Kellys a turnstile then Smith must be an open runway.

Forced to play fullback, not allowed to play his natural position.
Other players who aren't playing well getting the nod before him.
