| Quote FC-Steward="FC-Steward"I cant see us signing another half back . If Horne or Long get injured i reckon the replacement will be either Washy or Whiting .Cant think of no other team who as an out and out half back sat in the stands as back up on decent wedge . Suppose now it rests on Agars shoulders to get the balance right in the squad.'"
It does and I would like him to sign Moa. We wont solve the squad imbalance in one season but what we need to start with is a much stronger more aggressive off pack and it's the right place to start. The exception to that would be if we signed a top drawer SO but otherwise let's get next year's pack right and then look at the backs going forward. We have some promising young backs with pace coming through and what they need to develop and make the grade is to be introduced into a team which has a pack that can get over the opposition up front. |

100% Agree !!!
If we start with a big, aggressive pack, the rest of the squad tinkering becomes a little easier to do. |

It has to be Shrek with Cusack and Moa with dowes with manu either starting or replacing Lauaki. |

I wasn't suggesting that we should start with that pack but just imagine the prospect of those forwards all on the pitch at the same time during a game. |

Agreed, we need to take a hit with Moa next season. He's 22 and will be awesome in the next few years. Could be the cornerstone of our pack for the next 10 years if he's developed correctly.
As it stands, at the end of next season we have king (maybe gone anyway), cusack, fitzgibbon, radford, tickle, manu and houghton all OOC in the forwards. Can only see us (trying to) retain manu, houghton and possibly fitz if he goes well. We need some continuity and we'll be looking for plenty of players anyway without having to find another prop to replace moa |

If we allow that to happen i would expect we have a very good quota player signed.
I think one of the credible "in the know" posters has already ruled out the Bradford move though.
