:)Daryl said he will sit down with QLT over the next few weeks so I would say another deal is looking very likely.

Can he not sit down with him, thank him and then release him??? I’d hoped we were looking for something better and more long term than QLT

Maybe we have not found anyone yet. Daryl did say he was impressed with QLT as well. May offer a 1 yr extension so we can keep looking.

After all this time and if were going to sign a top winger like lineham it would not surprise me if Eden Turner qlt will be our full back options next season :hand:

Maybe a replacement for Milner with Jesse moving to loose forward

More likely Foster to Loose Forward if Milner goes.

I'd be happy with QLT for a year if we have an eye on a full back that is on contract for next year but free for 2020. He's definitely made a difference for us this year

Quite a few knocking the club on here if we were to offer QLT a new deal but are failing to offer any alternative signings. Who is available for FB ?

Not been overly impressed with Q so far, certainly can sniff out a try but doesn't seem to have much else to his game and can see why he as been languishing in the lower leagues all his days.
After nearly 12 months of searching for a replacement for Zak surely Wellsy can come up with some options that will suit the why Powell likes to play, we must use our quota spots wisely.

Club officials should know what's out there.

Brendan Elliot would have been an option

There loads of full backs out there we've being linked with a over a dozen since last october I'm just saying since we've not signed anybody we might go with what we've got for next year...except qlt we've not signed anybody

Why wouldn’t we?

He’s played a few games for us and scored in pretty much every one of them.

And that’s without our best team and spine out. Imagine what he could do with Gale out there.

Oh, and it’s also a player who hasn’t played in SL before, which makes it even more remarkable. He is settled and working hard for the team and clearly impressing in training too.

Age is but a number as Menzies, Westwood, Lynch have shown. He’s not a long term but he’s a great option to retain and cheap too compared to anyone we can bring across from Aus.

I’d still like another full back too but QLT may allow us to invest some money into keeping Milner and recruiting another signing elsewhere, such as wing and centre.

Hudds I agree with you. Most players would take a while to get upto speed coming from the championship, but has slotted straight in. He covered so much ground at the weekend and was linking up at both sides of the pitch, like you say he has scored in almost every game and has a really good step on him. Also dealt with every high ball leeds put up at the weekend and never looked 'risky'.

Age will catch up with every player eventually but from what I have read / seen he looks after himself well, doesn't really drink, and maybe not having the high intensity of SL throughout his career may mean he has a fair bit more in the tank.

Top quality FB are a valuable commodity these days, tbh I think we were spoilt with Zak will be very unlikely we will ever get someone as good as him in the next ten years. Would rather see us stick with QLT for another season if the right signing isnt out there (I would still expect us to bring a new FB in with it been the key target all season), However no point spending way over the odds either in a fee or cap space and have it impact the rest of the team.

Some people seem to be assuming that a quality SL standard FB is just sitting in the wild on a free transfer.

Zac in my opinion is one of the best natural rugby players in the world.
Yes he broke our hearts with his stupidity
However the likelihood of us recruiting someone of his caliber in the near future or possibly ever is about as likely as Shaun Wayne receiving a Nobel prize for diplomacy.
But despite some of the critics on here Daryl continues to confound us with.what he achieves with the personnel he he recruits or has at his disposal

We were begging Luke Dorn to stay 2 years ago at a similar age. QLT is a very similar style of player.

No he hasn’t. He didn’t score in the 24-24 draw with Hull KR. Still impressive strike rate though
