Quote: Riderofthepalehorse "Good post, and although I get the opportunity to further give our emerging youth more game time, it’s a balancing act isn’t it, superleague is a brutal unforgiving sport, and as we have already seen with Stavely, who acquitted himself so well, we must remember if we had a strong first team, perhaps we would drop them in occasionally, as Saints Wigan etc will, so for me if the chance this season to induct more experienced players comes along, we should grab it, Charles, Martin Balmforth have years in front of them.'"
The point i was trying to make Rider was that bringing in a halfback and maybe a second row for this season is hardly going to light up our season results wise and we would be better saving the money and concentrate on finding some quality players and hopefully a couple of marquee players for next season if the funds are available.
With Trueman back and Charles as the back up should suffice,and in the forwards Sao and Brown are back next week followed by Fash and Ashworth in the coming weeks so we have forward cover.
Mitch will come back shortly and provide a better defence either on the wing or centre.
