Mark Posted November 13, 2022 Author Share Posted November 13, 2022 21 by my reckoning, might have missed a couple out on here. They said we were aiming for a squad of 25 plus loans I think "When you participate in sporting events, it's not whether you win or lose; it's how drunk you get." -Homer Simpson "I couldn't be more chuffed if I were a badger at the start of the mating season" Ian Holloway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterYed Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 With one or two loan signings, there’s no reason Swinton should not be looking up the table instead of down. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayner Posted November 16, 2022 Share Posted November 16, 2022 I still think we need an established stand off and centre maybe also utility back. Not heard anything about Richard Lapore - I hope he has signed on again for 2023............... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could be the reason why he hasn't been announced. We look very short in the halves and middles. I think Gregson in the halves was fine for League 1 but, I think we need a more experienced half in the championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterYed Posted November 17, 2022 Share Posted November 17, 2022 If the new key positions can click like they did last year, I can see a good season for Swinton. Very impressed with the signings baker bennion Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted November 18, 2022 Author Share Posted November 18, 2022 Be intersting to see who fills the last few places, from what I can see for next season I am not sure that its any stronger then the season just finished, as people are saying, we cant go with gregson in the halves again. I do like him in the back row though "When you participate in sporting events, it's not whether you win or lose; it's how drunk you get." -Homer Simpson "I couldn't be more chuffed if I were a badger at the start of the mating season" Ian Holloway Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wayner Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Well just announced dual reg with Saints - so I imagine we will be seeing several young up and coming players from Saints being fast tracked into the team. Not a fan of dual reg personally - but with a limited budget for players there isn't an alternative. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sainthamish Posted November 24, 2022 Share Posted November 24, 2022 (edited) I was half expecting us to dual reg with Wigan again with Betts leaving Newcastle. Saints didn't put many players out on dual reg last year, although their agreement was with Leigh who were probably too strong a side to fit in any of young lads from saints.

wayner Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 I am concerned that we will be going into the campaign without a proven set of half backs I know it’s the wrong time of year with Xmas coming up but there’s not much time left Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wayner Posted December 8, 2022 Share Posted December 8, 2022 I think Rush was good and would be a good signing Also think the Wales stand-off that plays second grade in Australia looked good Hopefully we will find out soon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ManchesterYed Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I think Swinton have signed remarkably well, I can see you having a great season and looking forward to getting to some games.
