Yes I thought that Cas PNG player looked good and then, as you say, he dropped out the team. On a related point are there no overseas quotas anymore. Are there no longer any general rules about who comes to work in the UK. I thought players who didn’t have dual nationality or some such had to be current internationals or something. All a bit confusing but really happy we are recruiting. My patience at seeing us getting schooled at home my Doncaster has been exhausted. 

Good news that Liam Tindall’s been kept on by the new management. He was always a handful with ball in hand and looked dangerous every time he got some space. I never understood why he saw so little of it for the first half of last season, but once he did, the whole attack looked sharper. Glad it’s now official.

Pleased to see that Tindall is signed up- I wonder if we’ll hear about any further retentions in the coming days?

Connor O’Beirne and Ben Hursey-Hord have been retained as well. Great news, and both should kick on further in a more dominant squad, assuming they won’t be just bench players. That makes 14 confirmed now (unless I've missed someone!) and things are starting to take shape nicely. Really looking forward to seeing them back in training soon, hopefully with JD already back in the country although Cake will guide sufficiently in the interim. Feels like the rebuild’s properly underway!

Really pleased we retained Tindall. We’ve had some hard working wingers in recent years but he’s the first for a bit that is hard working and has electric pace. BHH is a good re-signing. I think he started slow but really built into the season. O Bearne I thought was a little bit hit and miss but he was carrying a knock for most of the season. If that has cleared up and with better players around I think he could really push on. So who else is there? Bienek is the obvious one but I’m pretty sure Full time is no good for him. Walker has done loads for the club and has had good games in last few seasons especially in our play off run in 2023 but I wonder if his race is run. Lovell had a strong season this year but I think he may be another for whom full time is no good. Possibly Curtis Davis who did surprisingly well and played in every game I think unless the position is already covered. I can see Porter staying as well but Worthington is another victim of the part time cull I think.Webster Mansfield was good but I think we feel he’s left which is a shame but there’s only so big the squad can be.
