| Quote PopTart="PopTart"Bowden was a loss for me but Powell decided that was the right thing to do.
I guess we have to give Shaw game time if he is to develop so we should tryst that he can.
To a certain extent Bain is the same.
Vagana would be fine but I'd rather let him develop at SR.
Cozza is a 13 for me. No more a prop than Pitts.'"
Pitts started his SL career with us as a prop so he has the knowledge. However I agree he’s not a prop anymore, he’s actually a perfect example of the arms race where player size is concerned. In the late 2000s he was adequate, now he’s just not big enough imho.

| PopTart Pat_Bateman:PopTart Shifty :PopTart phe13:PopTartThe Avenger:
With Atoni signing for Cas, I’d go for Owen Trout from Leigh to bolster the front row. He’s got size, youth, brings loads of energy and wouldn’t take up a quota spot. I’m not saying we’d get him but he’s a Wakefield lad and fan. In his short career to date he’s been at Cas and Leeds as a junior, then Huddersfield and now Leigh so he’s obviously not worried about moving from one club to the next.
I thought he was at Wakefield as a junior, when his brother was with us. He played at Stanley Rangers, same as his brother, but I don't remember him joining our Academy tbh. I remember him playing for England Academy against the Aussies when at Leeds, when England won 2-0. Came through Leeds academy I believe. Yeah, as I said, I remember him playing for England Academy against the Aussies while a Leeds junior. I seem to remember quite a bit of hype about him when he was going through their Academy at that time, but he only lasted a year in their senior set-up before moving to Hudds, might have been down to the lack of chances he was getting. I also think he made his SL debut against Trinity for Leeds.

He'd be a good shout and seems to be coming into his prime, it also leaves that space open to look for someone that suits us from the NRL. But hasn't Trout still got another year on his contract for Leigh? He signed for 3 years for the 2024 season, so that takes us till the end of 2026 season. Not saying we couldn't move for him, but we'd have to pay a fee. For some reason, this disappeared, which was my reply when Avenger suggested him.
