Ok, I know this is one of our most overdone topics, but how many of you think we will make any big signings at all before next season? By big, I mean someone that has recently, or could play regularly for Wales, England, Scotland, Ireland, France, NZ,Aus, SA.

I have a suspicion we won't, and will continue to develop our youngsters, whilst maybe signing 2-3 "promising" players.

By the way, Dan Braid plaid his first game since injury only last week!

I have a feeling that once agents (not the special types like 007) learn of what players we require , we will have to employ further staff to deal with the inquires.......

If weve got serious money to spend we will sign someone tidy. If were offering around the market average then we may struggle.
 
My gut feeling is that we will sign 2 high quality players.
 
We are still an attractive option with great facilities and our fairly good showing in Europe says we are still a player in europe.

The main point is that no one really knows how much money is available to us ...without this info we are totally in the dark

Tim, we are not an attractive option, we are the BEST option, we are filling the petrol tank for a European adventure, you got to be nuts, to miss it.Big smile

Only joking. IMO he's bloody awful, judging by the game on Saturday.

I think we'll sign one or two players - no even big names, but players in positions we need strengthening. Again, we'll be looking to bring through youngsters - people like Aaron Shingler, Dale Ford, Nick Cudd and Simon Gardiner from RFC.
 
We'll let players go - sounds harsh, but we're not blessed with cash. So fringe players out of contract will probably be moving on (Higgitt, DD, Pugh?)
 
Recruitment will be minimal. Heed Mr. Sergeant's warnings, folks!
