With fulltime superleague training he is going to be a beast. Still a little eough round the edges but nothing that isn’t coachable relatively quickly.

I thought he was awesome today.
I would love to seeing a right side with Roberts feeding Webster and Lo next season!

I wonder if we've had to pay decent money for him to secure the deal in face of competition

Wonder if we've taken a calculated risk

The original announcement on both cas and eagles' sites said he would be loaned back when not needed. Can't see that being very often if he carries on playing like he is atm.

Had to agree with my mate last night when he said, ' I can't see Lo flying through the air with the greatest of ease like Jy or Eden'. We are jumping the gun presuming he is a shoe-in for a regular wing spot.

One thing, he is playing left side and did for Sheffield. Does he replace Eden there or does it mean Eden to fullback?

Agree with this.

Roberts
Lo
Webster / Wardle
Shenton
Eden
Ellis
Gale.

Webster or Wardle can rotate into the second row if required.

McMeeken
Milner

Bench
Millington
Moors
Massey
Wardle/Webster whoever don’t start.

Top 4 team to me that.

I like the signings so far although I would be really happy if we signed a good recognised full back so we don’t have to move Roberts.fingers crossed

It seems like most of our fans are willing to play any first teamer at full back, CAS have currently the GB under 19s full back at the club, I would give him a try in the friendly's and see how he goes, Leeds tried Walker Wigan SAM Thomkins when they were still playing under 19S they didn't do too badly

Tomkins played 1 in the first team as an under 19 in the cup against lower league opponents I think we will see a few of the lads from the 19s play a handful of games throughout the season. But I can’t see any of them being handed any shirt between 1-17 when the squad numbers are released.

We clearly have most of Hardackers reputed £100,000 salary to spend, even after the Cory Aston signing (in League weekly today again) But, if the club cannot find a replacement fullback who would be better than Roberts or Eden (and be available!) then surely it could be better used strengthening the squad elsewhere?
