Excellent news especially Powell, though if half the pundits are to be believed Lenny won’t be going to the World Cup.
Pictures of Bassett and OHC on social media. Be interesting to know who the other new faces are

I'm fairly certain the guy who receives the pass from Kelly is new and not a senior academy lad
That video plus the Twitter shot of OHC really makes me fairly sure its Marcus Ramage from Nottingham, who played really tidily for us in the PRC last year
Ramage is in the background behind Kelly he isn't taking the pass

Has Browning been spotted, or is it possible Ramage has replaced him

I'd have thought the Notts boys or at least some of them will be training with us for pre-season. They have done in previous years - might not mean that Ramage is joining us, or at least not yet anyway so I wouldn't read too much yet at this stage.

As Browning wasn't announced in the leaving list he won't be being replaced by Ramage.

You could do, may be worth holding out till the end of the week just to see if some of 'last seasons' signings get announced

Yeah that would make sense too, I look forward to seeing what title you go with anyway!

“Men At Work”? - Surely want an Aussie theme to the title?

It looks like Williams, only potential for misidentification would be van Wyk who sports a similar haircut though the overall features don't really fit.
He'd also got leg binds on, which FvW wouldn't have.

Do some of Nott’s lads just train with us early on, those perhaps expected to be in the Prem Cup mix. Richard Clift joined them a month or so back, and posted he was looking forward to roiling it up with Notts and Tigers.

Good point, didn't look at the legs.
