The recruitment silence is deafening! Saying that though where were we at at this stage last season?

Teviti Cuvabati
Sinoti Sinoti
Sonatane Takula
Calum Green
Josh Matavesi
Adam Brocklebank

We’re already runoured to be after Green, Cavubati is out of a contract and would be a quality acquisition, don’t know about the other players though.
What about Davey Wilson. He's only 33. :smt039

I'll get me coat.

I imagine some signings will be unofficially confirmed at the fans forum to keep people happy. Pretty sure this happened with Kalamafoni.

Maybe 4 or 5 contract resigns and 1-2 new signings? (with a hopeful but pessimistic face on)
