I agree, Croft is running 100% tackle efficiency and playing very well in the forwards this year. No reason he can’t add to the squad and maybe even push for a starting spot. He’s becoming a real mr reliable. 

Russell is like to see more but he looks pretty lonely and decent. 

He has indeed, but I just mean that calibre of player really. There aren’t many great wingers off contract either side of the world, and I’m sure that’s in the team’s thoughts. 

Weel, that's a bit like saying we could do with some of the SOO players......

IMO we need a big nasty disruptive hard to handle front rower who can come off the bench and rattle the opposition for 15 minutes a half.


Looking at us next year with a fully fit squad and the additions so far my selection would be
Jowitt
Walmsley
Hall
Pratt
Johnstone
Trueman
Lino
McMeeken
Smoothy 
Uele
Storton
Vangana
Tevaga


Smith
Rodwell
Fa’atili
?????? Signing as prescribed earlier


Got Rourke, Tchimambe, Scott, Myers, to cover 1 to 5
We have good back row cover
Could probably do with another quality half
We have 3 quality hookers
But we are short on front rowers unless we move a back rower up which isn’t ideal

I agree. Except I'd like the big disruptor to be a second row.
Like a better Tanginoa or like Griffin was in hus prime.
