I have us at 39 so far for next year with no academy promotions included as yet.(possibly a few more will leave though Gaby/Myall/Garratt/west possibly still unknown but still a few rumoured signings too)
Then the current academy crop is at 15 (Thornton is off, others might not get promoted but with the likes of Porter, Willis, Umaga, Cardall, Oghre in there, there definitely is a few more squad options there. Promotions here will be filled with more of an intake from U18s)
Then the wider academy squad where there are the likes of Seabrook, Atta, Jardine, Onyeama-Christie, Hunt all regularly used.
Our wider playing squad is growing us all the time and if we don’t get too much of an injury crisis each season we should be able to compete across each competition a lot better all the way to the A league.
