Discuss the potential top 30.
Which ISP fresh faces have a chance? Will Joe Vuna be back?
Btw how was Preston Riki's year in ISP?

Mods if this thread is premature then please delete
It was just a thought that it would be good to see who guys are tipping to come through from isp

How does the top 30 work? If we have someone like Adam Blair on a 650k contract does he have to be top 30 or could we use him outside the top 30 in a mentoring role? Adam Blair - Wrestle and Niggle Coach
SK wouldnt do that to AB but might be a way to get the poor trainers we hear about out of the top 30, whoever they are.

Smith said 2 spots left on the 30, what am I missing cause I get 3 with Luke gone?

Teams often name 29 to start the season.
Either that or it's an upgrade from development.

I get 30 minus Ayshford, Luke, Sao and Satae. So 26. Then I assume Pompey will be brought into the 30 and one more upgrade already decided - possibly Turner?

Add Kata to that list to make 25 then Curran and KN signed so 27 makes 3 spots free.
Must of upgraded someone, Fuck knows.

Bryan Smith confirmed that we have 28 players on our list. One of the remaining spots is a hooker and the last they will leave just incase someone comes up on the market like most clubs will do...

A bit like having a fleet of 28 cars, when you are a trucking company. Not that it is Smiths fault. My guess he is doing what smart people do when in a hole, climb out not dig deeper. So building young talent is what he can do, stuff the rest of it. That was Watson's fault.

No idea but it'll be easy to tell once preseason starts which juniors have been upgraded. Any kid under 20 training fulltime need to be on a fulltime contract...
