No it's not but he does make a damn fine winger. I think he will stay on the wing if we can get the centre we want.

I can't see him moving postion now.

Are you aware of the centre were targeting Paul?

Not exactly, there is more than one option.

is gasnier still being talked about or has that been put to bed?

welham

I'd leave Briscoe on the wing, wouldn't even bother trying him at centre now.

He's a very good winger who will only get better.

That a wind up to get a bite off the dobbins or someone you think/have heard we may go for?

Would need to release James Webster (ginger quota)

one ginger per club then???

Too expensive mate.

Whiting?

hair dye!!!!!!!!!

Tuffour is well down the pecking order. Turner has played most of his junior rugby at 6 or 13 but has also said he's happy to play centre til the opportunity presents itself. I'd see Horne and Fitz at 6 and 13 next year and i'd see no room in the back row for Whiting either. That for me means they are both fighting for the right centre spot next season. My back row next year would be Burnett, Manu, Fitz with Lauaki of the bench. (or i may go Burnett, Fitz, Washy with Manu of the bench and Lauaki at prop) Either way Whiting is no where near playing back row in my head.

options galore!!!!!

what it does mean is that we dont need to recruit a centre.



A winger is what we need as well as a prop. Maybe a back rower depending what happens.

i would still like to see a centre and a winger brought in,even more so if and possibly hall and calderwood are released.sounds like shenton is following the distinct smell of £££ so we can forget him.there aren't that many about tho' so i suppose kevin penny for calders could be an option(needs to improve his defence i admit,but hasn't played much 1st team grade lately).he has pace to burn,and the sight of 2 quick wingers on our flanks could look promising in an attacking sense.the centre position could be a problem,as i dont think whiting and turner are long term options.

I believe we are currently looking at/speaking to a winger, a centre, a prop and a backrower. Time will tell.

Dont worry about the backrow and sign a back up halfback.

interesting with no quota spots looking available who the players we are talking too, there are few wingers, props and backrows out there, but cant see any centres off quota that a better than we have.

Maybe Shenton, but I arent overly impressed with him, think he is overated.

Bloody hell that's one hell of a utility player!!

I'd rather play and develop Reece Lyne than bringing in Penny.

Agreed don't see what people see in him, has looked distinctly average when I've seen him play.

Don't think we are interested in Shenton, I have always rated him but he has not had a good season. Think he will end up at Wigan or Saints.

it does actually look that way.maybe give calders a 1 year deal in the process?maybe on same sort of terms(not an international now,so cant expect too much money?).centre position is the one we may struggle with.

I really think we're fine in the centres. I'd be more concerned about quality cover for 6 and 7 if we get injuries to Horne and Long.

Maybe if we bring a winger in they could play full back to cover Tansey moving to 7 in the absence of Long.
