When I look at the squad in a long list like this what do I see :-

We're not blessed with much quality cover in the backs.
Forward cover is much better, we should always be able to put out a pack that can do a job, but ...
... as others' have said, we are lacking a "force" ie. someone who gives us a real threatening & physical presence.
I reckon we'll remain "work in progress", hopefully one or two of the forwards will further develop as we need them to.
Roberts & Gale gelling together is crucial, for me this will be the key area as to how good (or not) our season will be.

I'm looking forward to seeing Moors, Mariano, Holmes and Millington causing havoc in the channels running off Gales inside balls and Roberts cut out passes.

I reckon 2/3 of these could end the season with both double figures for tries and try assists.

A squad of 33, albeit with 6 young lads in there is decent. Glad it's DP and DO to pick the side and keep them all happy and not me.

Like down was saying that solamona is here for a centre spot and Webster moving into pack. But solamona wants to play full back
