Wow good run downs on the players , helpful to get a read of who we have in this team.
Sounds very encouraging , the recruitment team have done an outstanding job.
That's a heck of a lot of new playing staff , is that typical of any given season ? lets hope the club can keep some continuity going.
There are certainly options and depth in the spine half / hooker.....looks like we're covered there for depth in the case of injury and to put some real pressure on the the likes of Godinet Mcshane , and Sammut to hold some form which is only ever a good thing.
Sejka is a bonus in that regard.
I don't know enough about the team to comment , clearly it's hard with so many new players to coordinate defensive systems.
The other thing I picked up from the radio commentary of last week is that the game callers kept uttering surprise at a lot of the Refs decisions , they were clearly calling the game in favor of St's ( from the tone and focus on one team ).
In my experience of watching footy , lesser sides will always get less benefit of the doubt in the 50/50's......good sides will get the rub of the green.
It's a fact of life for the new signings and the established players to get their heads around and I'm keen to hear that the team is being drilled in defence.
Any chance we could be a Superior defensive team should be explored in future signings....it sounds like they have put together plenty pf people that can set up Trys.
I think all of our permanent signings have been excellent and ALL have helped to improve the squad.
The loan players are a different matter and although we have been short in our three quarters and it's easy to understand why we would take these players on board, I don't think the Leeds pair are as good as the young lads that we had last season and our own youngsters will feel pretty brassed off that these players are ahead of them in the pecking order, when they don't appear any better.
Plus, instead of bringing our own players on, we are helping Leeds to maintain and improve their squad.
Having said that, Riley is a decent player already and can certainly do a job for us.
