If we beat Leeds in the Grand Final I'll attend the homecoming naked and kiss Mick Potter.

That's how confident I am.

Same line-up as I quoted but I listed Moore as starting and Cunningham impacting off the bench... looks strong considering whose backing them up i.e. Wheeler, Ellis, Lomax etc...

More optimistic than you usually are then

That's a pretty fair assessment. Although if we do get that other prop I reckon we'll have the edge up front.

Corrected

Much the same as me... I'll drop my pants on the town hall steps if we win the GF this year.

I could of swore before you signed fozzard alot you had decided your squad wasn't deep enough. So now with one more signing your squad is very deep!

I agree with you. The more immature posters do have a habit of getting carried away with things. That is my role in life, to balance out these eternal optimists.

Just props we're light in. Could still do with one more IMO but elsewhere we've got decent cover.

Also add Jodie Broughton!

I'm with the poster who thinks we'll see soliola in the back row with wheeler at centre more often than not.

I don't know how we're going to juggle the Moore, KC, Robes situ.

I think he'll name Kyle at centre with Moore at 7 and one of KC and Roby on the bench.

Soliola will be second row and Wheeler will be injured for 75% of the games.

How many overseas players are allowed next season?

About 16 going off a few of the other sides in Super League.

Boooo!!

It depends what you call overseas.

youve done it now saddened.
i'm not saying owt but cant wait till they see this.

Been released i've just seen



Solilola will play centre! Saints have struggled not having an out an out and with Wilkin / Clough / Flannery / Puletua and then the younger lads back row looks fine whereas still just Gidley and Dean (also 2nd row)!

My bet would see Wheeler dual contracted out for most games until Kyle injured then back into the side!

I agree and I've said all year that we need a good prop big time but I'm starting to worry about our halfbacks.

In recent weeks our pack have carried the team up the pitch very well but we can't do anything with the ball.

Eastmond may make that happen with a full pre season as 1st choice scrumhalf but he doesn't look like a ball player and pryce ain't either.

Kyle is going to be a world beater IMO but only with a ball playing halfback.

It's a tough job, but someone has to do it.

Nah. I reckon he'll be Gilmour part 2 with dodgy knees. I'm hoping Wheeler will be first choice centre for next year, but the way Eastmond played there on Saturday I could see him doing just as well there as Wheeler did.

I can't make my mind up on soliola or wheeler for centre next year. I've been told that soliola has no speed but not sure how true that is but I'd go with wheeler in centre.

Wello
Gardner
gidley
wheeler
meli
pryce
eastmond
graham
KC
fozzard
soliola
wilkin
roby

Moore
maurie
tony p
flannery

The is a lot of options in that squad. The is a lot you could change which wil be massive help.

He'll fit in perfectly with the rest of the squad then

we seem to have cover in every position, which is nice. I'd still like a monster prop though, but i can dream

For next season I think we should get rid of Gardner and use whatever money we can to get a very fast winger that knows how to go on the outside of someone. Failing that play Lomax at winger and get an extra prop.

My team would be:

Wellans
Lomax
Gidley
Wheeler
Meli
Pryce
Eastmond
Graham
Cunningham
Puletua
Soliola
Wilkin
Roby

Moore
Fa'asavalu
Fozzard
Clough

Some great options in the forwards with Flannery, Hargreaves and all the younger players that will be that bit older and better next year to. We do have problems with speed in the backs but Eastmond and Lomax are lightning and Pryce is no slouch.
