| 4 weeks ago we were skint, Rovers fans couldn't wait to tell us and signing a marquee player and someone of his ability we could only dream of.
Now we are overpaying.

I think we're gonna have to overpay some to tempt them to come here. Once we've got a decent coach and squad together it'll become easier to tempt players but for now we're just gonna have to suck it up. But with Asiata, Holmes and Milner in the side next year we'll be a lot better side. I like what Myler is doing and it all seems so simple too so why couldnt previous idiots who coached us do this?

Asiata also praised Pearson in his statement but that doesn’t fit your anti-Pearson agenda does it and Milner isn’t very good at all…we need a hooker who can bullet a pass and run out of back.

| Jeez so many on here in the know. Wages players coming etc etc. Yet not one of them even mentioned Asiata arrival? I'm sure they name every player available then when we finally sign one it's hey told you

You'd think so but milner and Golding are hooking for hudds and they're a lot better than we are

| Quote: Dave K. "Miller is pretty average, like a poorer version of Houghton at hooker and on par with Cator at LF.
I'd take Johnston on loam, big lad and might need another backrow is Chamberlain goes back early.'"
I was hoping we had moved away from signing average

You make it sound like these rumours are actual signings.
Anyway if we signed some average players that would be an improvement on some signings in the last five or six years.

| Always rated Milner. Not as good as he was in his peak at Cas, but still a tough competitor and experienced - both what we lack in the pack.
Him and Holmes are good additions. Experienced, no nonsense Brits who are an improvement to what we have. Steps in the right direction IMO.

| I'd be a bit disappointed with Milner but would take Holmes who is a good experienced second rower and we need someone who Staveley and Jebson can learn from.

| We have make the step-up to being average before we can start competing at the top of sl again. Will take a couple o myears to get anywhere near with the dearth of talent available

| Suppose every signing. Can’t be top players , especially in a salary cap sport , and the players been mentioned lately aren’t what I’d pick , but if they are replacing our average players like brown Scott etc then we are improving our squad with better average players . Won’t be an overnight thing assembling a squad that’s perfect , it will take a few years after how far back we’ve fell behind the best teams .

Bingo…..don’t rate a couple of names mentioned but would be better than ones replacing.Still think there will be another couple of “wow” signings and backed up with good players then we will improve

Me too , it’s going to be our overseas signings where the class comes from I’d have thought. , mainly due to lack of quality available who is from here , unless we pay some fees .

| Who was the centre Leigh wanted to bring but couldn't do to not having any overseas spots? Armstrong?
Maybe we should sound them out for rest if this season?

| Really intrigued to see who the coach is, a quality coach would get a tune out of any player, world class or not, no team has a squad of world class players,
Like previous comments have mentioned, 5/6 more quality signings and a ‘changing of the guard’ is what really matters, yes we will overpay to get players, but the right coach maybe able to get a tune out of some of the players that we have now,
Looking forward to how Trueman and Charles link up, would like to see a change at 9 though this weekend, maybe move Smith to 9 and use Balmforth from the bench
