Not sure of the 3yr breakdown in his contract yet.. I think most of them end in development or train&trial positions, be a big call to promise a Top30 spot, unless you are dead sure.

I wish I could peer into the future and predict which of the young forwards are going to make it.. it seems like all the guys we pull from 'out of catchment' into the dragons squads... have a pathway lined up with a management company.. going to be a lot of competition for spots over the next 1-3yrs.

What's also interesting, is its yet another forward recruit (with so few backs targeted), not that im complaining, but we will have to prioritise some of them along the way and let the others get pinched by other clubs. Not sure if the jr recruitment strategy is by design or by coincidence.

I think your fav needs to have a big year Rev, he was killing it in SGB but seemed to regress in JF, maybe due to player movements etc, anyway lets see what happens this year, I hope he blasts it.

Plenty of backs already at the club.
