2018 squad and Depth
2018 squad and Depth
How does everyone feel about our squad and Depth next season. Where do we need to improve or are we complete. Here is what I have. May of missed a player or 2 off as worked it from top of my head:
FB: Hardaker, Eden, Roberts
W: Eden, Minikin, Hitchcox, Lo, Gill
C: Shenton, Webster, Minikin, Wardle, Gill, Egodo
SO/SH:Gale, Roberts, Trueman, McLelland
H: McShane, Milner, O'Neill
P: Millington, Cook, Moors, Jesse, Springer, Patrick, Massey, Maher, Douglas
SR: Jesse, McMeekan, Wardle, Moors, Holmes, Foster
LF:Milner, Massey, fitszimmons
I've put Wardle in at C/SR - Moors and Jesse in at P/SR. Eden and Roberts FB cover as well as a few youngsters. Are we happy or do we need anymore?

1. Out and OUT ball handling & aggressive prop
2. Utility Man capable of making a position his own, and able to cover half

An aggressive ball handling prop would be ideal but usually they're on or the other. I'd settle for big and aggressive, we're not short on ball players.

Re: 2018 squad and Depth
Just a prop to replace Lynch I think.
Walmsley or Tagataese would do.

What if you could have a clone of Millington or a 'nasty prop' as people keep asking for? I know which one I would havedrleftie wrote:An aggressive ball handling prop would be ideal but usually they're on or the other. I'd settle for big and aggressive, we're not short on ball players.
Re: 2018 squad and Depth
We really do need a new prop. With Lynch retiring, Moors struggling with injuries lately, Patrick the same, Springer going AWOL... we need some size up front. This is where Hull and Saints have the upper hand on us, and why they've beaten us.
Re: 2018 squad and Depth
Yea i dont think we need a nasty prop, they usually come with a lot of penalties, we need another smart prop thats big and strong and sticks to the game plan.
Walmsey or either of the Burgess twins would be perfect but unlikely, maybe the new signing Bustin will turn out to be it

Re: 2018 squad and Depth
Give Powell someone like Ryan Sutton to work with and he'd be a revelation in our squad

If the depth of squad are what we have played tonight then sorry I don't think they will be up to it,more so if we have a run of injurys like we had last year

Any injuries and we have a problem
Re: 2018 squad and Depth
So what do you suggest? Get rid of the young lads and sign another 13 first teamers to sit in the stand until we get injuries.fords wrote:Tonight has just answered that I think.InTheKnow wrote:How does everyone feel about our squad and Depth next season.

Majority of missed tackles leading to trys tonight were by first teamers. (Eden Gadwin Fozz Jesse) to name a few.

Don't know. I'd like to see a prop brought it tbh.Casmoley wrote:So what do you suggest?

Maybe they just couldn't be arsed knowing it's all about next week. Really a nothing game for us.
I'm hoping it's that and we aren't going to fall apart when it matters

Re: 2018 squad and Depth
We were soft.
Compared to hull who got at us, 3 man tackle, hit us with force, played much faster than us.
We seem to just go through the motions and we're desperate for the 80 mins to be up.
Our whole attitude stank.
Not a very professional performance at all.
In fact very embarrassing.

Will you forgive if we win next week?

Powell said tonight. He knows his team already for next week and I bet the players do too.fords wrote:Don't know. I'd like to see a prop brought it tbh.Casmoley wrote:So what do you suggest?

Re: 2018 squad and Depth
Some perspective required here I think.
Hull played the very best team they had available. They risked injury and suspension to finish in the play-offs.
We didn't need to.
I'd rather lose and have our best players available for next week than win and have anyone injured.
The result meant nothing to us.
