Quote Last Son of Wigan="Last Son of Wigan"I believe we're only a few top signings off being a top team again. The right signings will get more out of some of our current players. For one, I do rate Hastings more than Williams. I think he has a better RL brain and brings the players around him more into the game.
I honestly think we'll see a better Zac Hardaker in attack if Hastings signs. Watching how Hastings plays, I can see him being far more aware of how to use Hardaker as a strike weapon in attack.

I'll be dreaming, but bringing in Hastings to play left side to replace Williams, a new 7 and 9 would drastically change how our team performs.'"

We probably don't have any cap space. So many players have had their contracts renewed it's bound to affect the salary cap.


Trouble is our two highest paid players and them being two of our three marquee players haven't played for months. French has been out for a couple of months and Thompson since the Catalans game when we also lost Walters.  Although Walters has returned he was out for around 10-11 weeks Thompson still hasn't played.  That is just too much talent missing from the squad  not to have an adverse effect on performance..


If there was a shake up needed then Forber to be bench 9 instead of Leeming.  Walters right 2nd row and Junior off the bench. Maybe also Eckersley to replace Wardle for a couple of weeks so get Jake rested and fit again.


IMO our first 17-20 is the best in SL and by some distance. For that to be reflected in performance they all have to play especially our best players which they plainly have not.
