gowales: i guess they do, but they released Barry because they wanted to develop Ross Jones and also have Fussell. Now they have also released Owen not sure who else they have as back up for fullback?

Morgan may be an option, good little counter-attacker and can kick a ball.

Didn't realise he was 26 already.

I rate Spratt as a centre, just a shame his career so far has been hit by so many injuries. Here's a bit more about the signing:

Didn't he do a stint out in New Zealand as well ? I seem to remember him scoring a hatrick on hid debut. I am sure it was for Waikato.Or I could be imagining it Headscratch

lord:

think he signed for taranaki to play in the air new zealnd cup. if i remember rightly it was something hore set up to expose him to a different rugby enviroment. apparently the kiwis rated him highly out there.

Spratt is a decent player (lot older than I thought!), but I think he will only be cover for Beck and Bishop until the next generation come through.

Yeah that lad was being talked up on here a while back as one of the next big things (around the same time as that poor openside kid was being talked up and then retired injured), it seems weird centre was one of those positons we seemed to be lacking in internationally and all of a sudden we have centres coming through ding dong. Lets hope that happens with tightheads.

I think him and Beck will make an excellent centre partnership and he'll probably edge Bishop out.
As some of you have said he did have an exciting spell in NZ and came back with lots of praise, but then got injured a number of times and we never really got to see the best of him in an Ospreys shirt. I saw him a couple times last season for LI and in fairness, he played well. He seems to be able to choose his angles well, I think Beck will be able to create space for him to run through. He also seemed quite solid in defense too

SMirnoff - to be honest I don't really know much about him. But being a Russia international, who was born and lives in Aus seems a touch iffy to me.

I don't know anything about him, just that quite a few people were raving about him when he was linked to the Scarlets and isn't he 1st choice for the Rebels

priest: good spot of byrnes account, wonder where he is moving to? what i've seen of him he likes to throw his weight around a bit/ niggly fella. plays the enforcer type, but sometimes takes it too far. saying that the scarlet pack can do with a bit of dog. if we do sign byrne to add to earles and vallejos then we are probably better off in the boilerhouse than we we're last season.

Carizza has offers from Racing Metro and some Super rugby franchises. I somewhat doubt he will be going to the Scarlets. But you never know i guess...

gowales: think you're right on Carizza, plus we already signed one argentine in Vallejos who will be away for the 4 nations. so doubt we'd recruit two locks who will be away for the start of the season. I know we offered adam byrnes a contract a while ago, but withdrew it due to his disciplinary record. whether we've had a change of heart i don't know. Last I've heard Eaton was asking for too much money. So I'm not sure who will fill the final spot in our boiler house.

I don't think I've ever seen Hywel Stoddart play, but let's hope he's as impressive as he seems to have been in training. If we end up with another Welsh back rower pushing for national selection, then all the better.

Luckless if he has got the aggression of his brother then I would assume he will be pretty handy for clearing out at the breakdown

Meant to be in training now, so fingers crossed it won't be too long. But I would rather them ease him in and not risk anything.

I am suprised he hasn't ended up at any other region, as I am sure the Dragons and Blues would have appreciated a bit more depth to their tight-head options. But I can see why he has gone with Samson Lee coming thought (and of course the other issues).

Cardiff should have done the same thing with Scott Andrews two seasons ago

What when he was getting called up to the Welsh squad and talked up as the future?

And when the Blues only had him and 100 year old Filise on the tight head...yes, getting rid of him would have been very sensible Rolling Eyes

Well anything else would be sensible, he isn't a professional standard tighthead prop.

We do have at least three already though (Buck, Ryan and Way). I wouldn't expect Dragons to make many (if any) more signings anyway.

I think Dragons still lack an open-side.

It's such a shame Gavin Thomas had to retire, but they do have a good batch of backrow players coming through.

Scarlets haven't got a real open side at the moment (except penalty machine Edwards) - but am hopeful that D Thomas will get some exposure this year)

Lewis Evans is good enough. At club level you don't really need a ball stealing 7

What I meant was we are lacking another open-side, doesn't seem like there is much cover there. Nash from Keys looks the part but I do not think they even invited him to pre-season training. Perhaps they are considering Groves and Coombs back-row cover?

Darren Waters should be the starting openside. I don't see what's wrong with him. He was in good form when he played for us.

Not surprised gardiner went to the english championship. The money he was looking for no wwelsh region would consider that for what would be best a third choice TH. What he was paid at quins & scarlets has given him an unrealistic view of what he's worth. But i wish him all the best and hope this move kick starts his career/motivation to improve.

Think darren waters will be a hit next season & surprise a few people how good he actually is.
