Tyrer 3 and Smith 7 the highlights surely.

Be interesting to see who gets 8, 10 and 13.

Logan at 9 but hearing he is struggling quite bad with an injury, so the neighbours cat told me 😃

We need another hooker anyway.

Not sure why we didn’t sign Hulme/Wood from last years reserves.

Training has started. I’ve got no idea whether he is injured or not though.

Doesn't look a bad team, but a lot of inexperience lower down the squad and will struggle with injuries. A couple more experienced forwards needed to add to the squad.

First 17 looks good but after that very underwhelming indeed. Need five more good additions to compete.

A bit harsh to say the least. Yes, we could do with a larger squad but some of the higher numbered players aren't bad....

First 18 I would match that against team in the division, above that? Shaky. However, I do wonder why an 18 man squad is not sufficient.

I know the answer but before SL players would play 40+ games a year, injuries were the same if not worse and yet, we would have a squad of 15 players of experience. How did we cope?

One thing that we don't know is whether we have talent in those youngsters that needs a challenge to show itself.

Optimistic I grant you but if you haven't got some optimism we might as well wrap it up now!

Maybe some loan players, not loads but a couple could be useful?

Yes, a couple of big, nasty loan forwards would be great, but how easy will that be now we are part-time?

<p style="text-align: left;">I think we need a couple of experienced forwards. The way the forwards take punishment in the middle you are always going to get injuries.  We only really have young O'Neil to come in at prop. I don't think its fair to expect the 2 academy lads to play more than a handful of games at this stage of their development. We don't have any back row cover.</p>

Anyone remember the days when the shirt only belonged to the player who was selected to wear it on match day ?
