We may have recruited from lower teams - Oldham and swinton being obvious examples
but one or two have been good for us - Lloyd, butt, hall (eventually)
the rest have been bang average (gregson for instance)
we need to be looking higher than that - so is it right will roberts was recalled ?
big miss for me, a stand off that can give a spark to the team
lets wait and see on recruitment but we need a running standoff a grizzly prop at least
if we can hang onto Big Ben that would be a massive plus, but suspect he off to Leigh
@prisoner is that because he was water carrier against Featherstone? Only reason i can think of because it was announced we had him for the season and he's not been in any of Saints 1st team squads.
With regard to langtree, he is one of our better players when fit - it may be a pay as you play contract - who knows but when he is fit he would be one of the first names on the team sheet for me
If we sign Mellor thats the running halfback sorted.

When he is fit i agree but if only get a few games a season i feel a waste of money. Unless on pay as you play? I did like him when played but hardly seen him this year.
@sinbad that's the reason we can't sign hall surely? As your filling the squad with people who can't play at least half the games so your creating your own injury problems before you begin
Bennison is in the Saints squad. Guess Ince will be playing as he was in the 21 last week and it said he had recovered from injury.
Thought I would bring up my post and add our shambolic coach to the list.There are far too many players that have been here far to long and need moving on, the squad needs refreshing from the core as we have become stagnant.
Our recruitment for the last two seasons has been very very poor we have recruited far too many players not just from crap teams below us but from teams that have been relegated which in itself shows a lack of ambition and a lack of knowledge about actually recruiting a decent team. We are now reverting to signing ex players which again is worrying, either nobody wants to come here or our recruitment is utter shite.
