2017/2018 Knights Player signing speculation

[88Knight4life]

Was someone suggesting signing Dave Taylor on here a few weeks back? He's playing bloody well tonight, throwing him a 1 year minimum wage contract wouldn't be the worst idea. Little risk and a chance of a decent reward.

Was thinking the same thing,

Had 6 runs for 62 meters at half time.... man is a tank.

Match winning tank, it turns out.
And Sezers 40-20 under pressure was ridiculous.

It's a funny game rugby league.

But, how did you know he signed on the 19th of July? That's the best call ever!!!

If Buhrer plays 80 minutes you might as well get Levi to play 80 minutes at hooker - either way you don't get a fresh hooker when we need one.

What are peoples thoughts on what a successful season will be next year? Brown will pretty much have his roster, no salary cap/inexperienced excuses anymore. Is anything less than a top 8 enough for him to get a new deal?

I'd go 8 wins for a new deal. Looking at 8 wins with no context you wouldn't be happy, but for us it would mean we've improved significantly from this year & hopefully more improvement to come the following year.

It will still have a lot of young players and be a new team 12th and up would be a bonus I think then top 8 in 2019.

Id wait to see how where doing after 10rds before making a real judgment on our coaching future.

But ill still comment on things at present.

Winning a few tight games, not getting flogged and finishing well away from wooden spoon, 10th maybe

Top 8 for him to stay anything under 50% win ratio time to move on.

Bit rushed with success, give time for the side to blend, based on current signings, still short a good top line prop and top line half, let's see how we are mid season, I expect big improvement, hard to see us going from bottom to top 8 in a season.

 

[Joshhh]

Yeah we've had 3 wins in the last 2 seasons, we can't expect them to be a finals team, click & know how to win overnight. 8 wins is a 400% improvement on 2017, granted it's not hard to improve on 2 wins.

I still see the back row problem is what to do with Sione.

For mine he is not a forward and his development seems to have come to a full stop.
