I wanted to give you all an update on what's been happening with the squad for the new campaign.

I've spent quite a lot of time on the NT over the last few days and I think i'm pretty much there. I will continue to scour through deeper divisions over the weekend to see if there are any other gems that I can find to strengthen the team.

There were 49 players in the squad when I took over from Mickey, so I guess someone retired during his tenure. Currently the roster is still at 49 players. I have dropped and replaced 14 players and have left 1 spot open in case I do find another gem. If not then I have a pretty good idea of who I will add as the 50th player.

The players removed from the NT are:

Archie Rowatt RB
Niall Hobbs OL
Elliot Baker OL
Lennon Liam Hyde DL
Zak Matheson DL
Jamie Patrick O'Connor DL
Iain Wallace LB
Toby Brodie LB
Henry McKnight LB (Sorry Ray )
Gordon Parkes LB
Liam James Craig CB
Leon Cairns SF
Morgan Matthewson SF
John Rhys Matthewson K



And the new additions are:

Dan Johnson RB
Spencer Aitken OL
Robert John Griffin OL
Aiden Lewis Ahrens TE
Marcus Millar DL
Harry Hicks DL
McKenzye Cunningham LB
Brian Taylor LB
Rhys Reynolds LB
Campbell Borland CB
Struan Fitzgerald CB
Jude Nevin SF
Damien O'Sullivan SF
Harvey Kerr K

I'll update you all on any other changes between now and Tuesday

Hi all,

Your 50 man UK NT squad for the upcoming WC 13 Qualifications has been set.

Congratulations to all the players and their managers who have made the team and commiserations to those who have been dropped, but remember these players have not been forgotten and may be considered for a place in the future.

To update the above post, below are the final changes that have been made.

Additions:

Josh Grassick OL instead of Spencer Aitken OL
Dylan Bishop OL instead of Robert John Griffin OL
Brodie Parkes LB/CB. Added as 50th man.


Removed:

Zachary Ritchie DL instead of Zak Matheson DL


I'm looking forward to the start of the campaign and i'm hoping that this squad can bring the trophy home.

Yeah he made it in as the 50th player.

I think he'll be a good utility player for the squad due to his dual BPOS at LB and CB. Also he might make the starting team as a special team CB due to his blocking skill.
