Signing players who can play well and help win us games should suffice I reckon.

# seize the day
I think you are right the club will soon be ringing round asking us to renew our season tickets a couple of signings would help this along, but if the right players are not available right now we might after wait like this year our mid seasons recruits have turned out OK
Now the seated season ticket renewal date has passed, I'd expect a drip feed if signings, not one a day, but our pre season starts early November with most players back December I think I read. One every 2 weeks maybe?

Thanks for that. I'd think we'll be bringing in 2 or 3. 3 would make it from the start of November.

How when were up to the cap ? Springers wage wont be enough to sign 3 unless were paying them 20k a year and for them to be no where near the first team.

Massey was on a good deal I don't think we need to really improve that just extend the deal. Minkin has to earn it this year so far had one good year and Mitch get him signed up.

And who took Hardakers wage? It looks like the club are trying hard to free up a bit of the cap to enable them to bring in a couple of new recruits, lets just give them time and see what Wellsy can come up with.

Yes but it won't be 100k each. The lift, I reckon, will be the extra amount in the salary cap.

DP said there would only be 2/3 coming in, who's to say they weren't included after he knew who was staying and going.

Gadwin was certainly signed prior to Toronto not being promoted, then Douglas went. Wouldn't surprise me to see at least one big player to go as well to bring in the right players. Roberts anyone?

The thing is, we aren't just looking for a centre, it's the right centre to play and fit our style. Also the right attitude. We don't have the money to buy wirld class and so it becomes harder to source.

One of peanuts brothers would fit the role. Could take us to a whole new level.
