Thank god the club are addressing the need for centres. Apparently the retained list to be made available shortly, roll on 1st September eh?

8 players on world cup duty?



Leuluia

Wilshere

Fitz

Littler

...



Who else?

Could be involved it says....Alker was mentioned somewhere as a possibility for ireland...maybe Jeremy Smith in the NZ squad though I doubt it massively having not played regularly for Souths this year...and obviously The Brock will be the first name on Tony Smith's team sheet - if not I for one wont be watching.

Another one to knock off the [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_league/super_league/castleford/7572799.stmlist[/url

On the subject of centres I personally would love to see Ryan Atkins come over from Wakey, rate him in the top 4 or 5 British centres and as such would make him a much better offer than Wakey are. Either that or go as I always say for a huge big raw boned south sea islander and nurture him, there never seems to be a shortage of them down under so try to find a young reserve grader in the NRL or feeder system them give them a punt.

Seconded, but can't see Kear wanting to let him go. Still don't understand why he's not made the preliminary WC squad.

Lee Doran would be a good second row cover player - hard work ethic and can part at the right time.

Scratch [url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_league/super_league/st_helens/7577506.stmBryn Hargreaves[/url from the list - signed a new 2 year deal at Saints

Well we're not getting [url=http://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/rugby_league/s/1064143_salford_start_big_clearoutDavid Stagg[/url after all.



Not that anyone mentioned that we might be.



He would have been a very good signing.

In which I doff my cap in the appropriate fashion. I've not been reading the Board properly lately so seem to be missing a lot of stuff.

Matt Gardner released and has supposedly signed for Quins
