Yeah lisone and frawley should create two spots. I would hope that we can produce a centre from what we have and not need to recruit outside (we need home grown players for cap dispensation allowing us to spend bigger on outside recruits). A prop, overseas half back and a back rower. We should be looking at that now and signing the highest quality we can in those positions. Hopefully we can keep Arthur a few years and he can see a route to winning the comp in 2-3 years and wants to do that before he heads home.

If there's no dispensation then which clubs realistically have space at this stage of preseason?

I reckon we’ll get Watkins. RFL have told them they have to sell players or thet won’t be able to register players for this season. Reduced cap of 1.2m

[quote="Seth":1acmvhaz]If there's no dispensation then which clubs realistically have space at this stage of preseason?[/quote:1acmvhaz] Hull, Wire, Leigh and Cas, so far as I can make out.

Think wakey have just cleared a quota spot by terminating a contract sharpish too.

Cross - Hull FC Ormondroyd - Castleford Sneyd, Shorrocks - Leigh Watkins - Leeds These are five moves I think are likely. MacDonald, Lafai, Nikorima, Stone, Wright, Lewis, Marsters will get looked at elsewhere but unless quota spots open, only Wakefield, Castleford, Huddersfield and Catalan can look at them.
