Looking at the squad, there are probably more to come out yet
Fly half, Centres and Props look a tad thin
Good depth in back row and back three

For me we need 5 more bodies in:
2 x Centres - Proven Premiership Standard players
2x Tight head props - As above
1 x Fly Half - maybe a fallen out of favour players or a championship standard player who we can bring on.

Props still slightly worry me wonder if we will see any in the academy next season, as we also don't have many young ones coming through. 
Dave Wilson and Jack Payne (both props) are still here; contract lengths were undisclosed for both players I believe. I think Scott Wilson's 3 year deal is due for renewal this summer, likewise for Hammersley. I expect both of these will be in the batch of renewals Smithy has mentioned.
Scott Wilson and Hammersley removed as per Pedro Falcon. I also expect to be adding these two back in at some point
Jack Payne is a Mowden Park player rather hand being directly contracted to Falcons is my understanding

Spoke to Scott Wilson after the Worcester away game he’s staying around.
Is Josh Williams the young lock still with us in the academy?
And I would keep Scotty Lawson on as hooker as well. Whilst he may retire...he may well perform the same role as Aly Hogg, in providing quality veteran back up when required.

No, Josh Williams hasn't been with us for a while.

If will montgomery is included shouldn't josh hodge as well? The kid is supposed to be special!
The forwards look like they still have substantial experience ( despite the 4 retirememts) but jeez there's a raft of youngsters in the backs.
How much actual league time will the young lads get next season.
Uzokwe
Chick
Radwan
Kibirige
Blamire
Penny
Charlie Wilson
Stevenson
Cowell
Etc etc

Probably Cup games and dual reg deals with DMP, Blaydon, Tynedale
Chick, radwan and kibirige will become established first team players (perhaps not alwaus starting ones).
I suspect they are looking at Cowell for the 15 slot. He has massive potential.

I imagine we'll see more of Chick with Latu and Hogg retiring, perhaps him and Burrows sharing the 8 shirt.
Im curious to see how Penny and Charlie Wilson go in the centres next season. Both bright hopes...Penny a bit further down the road than Wilson but has had a nightmare run with injuries.
Mermoz and Civetta need removing from the squad both gone elsewhere.
Announced this week that England U18s pair Rob Farrar and Tom Marshall have been promoted to the senior academy. Both excellent prospects, taking our senior academy influx to six this summer. They'll all train full time with the first team.
Added Davey Wilson back in as Smithy confirmed he’s still with Falcons
I expect to add in Scott Wilson and Simon Hammersley in once the squad is confirmed, hopefully this week

Cheers Smithy, thought as much but last seasons thread had them as out of contract
Centres a bit light perhaps, and I'd like another fly-half with top club level experience if possible. I wonder if we'll sign another senior hooker as well since we went into last year with 4 but now there are only 3, unless Blamire will be stepping up.
Jack Payne added at TH
Thanks Smithy for the update
Thanks Smithy for the update
Dom Waldouck still showing on what appears to be next season squad on website
Well spotted
Wonder if it’s same terms as last year with his studies?
Added Waldouck back in
Makes me wonder whether we will be signing any more players now that the squad is confirmed.

Added in several academy players as per the offy squad list
Yes, Dom is with us, same set-up as last season with Oxford Uni. He’s with us all pre-season.
Looking at the squad, we seem to have replaced like for like the players who have left/retired with mainly younger/EQP players -
Vickers - Logo
Latu - Nagusa
Hogg - Collett/Graham
Lawson - McGuigan
VDM - Arscott
JPS - Williams
Others such as Willis and Mermoz have been replaced by promoting from within the academy with players such as Connon and Penny ready for first team duties
Now that the squad has been confirmed on the Offy, we have obvious depth as long as the academy players impress and and can hold their own when given their chance. I hope that players like Connon or Charlie Wilson aren’t making their debuts against the likes of Toulon. I know it’s worst case scenario but only one or two injuries would mean they wouldn’t be thrust into contention despite never playing in the Premiership
Losing experienced players such as Vickers, Hogg, Latu and Lawson gives others the opportunity to step up as part of the leadership group within the squad but maintaining the continuity within the squad
On the whole the team should be very similar to last seasons which performed so well unless we receive a late surprise

Brocklebank, Payne, Connon, Joel M and Penny all listed with the full squad. Good stuff.
Interesting to see that Josh Matavesi has ben very positive about having "fewer" changes in the squad, with us mostly replacing the ones have gone and promoting the academy lads who have been around the senior squad for a couple of years now anyway.
He said the training has been going very well for that reason and the new comers have been fantastic.
Players like Penny, Charlie Wilson, Radwan, Kibrige in the backs will have much more gametime now and probably feature in more heavyweight Prem games.

Once you have the squad nicely balanced with a mixture of academy players you don’t want a big turn over every season. This is showing that we are retaining our talent much better than in previous years
Of course you still need new players with quality to keep the squad fresh but the core remains there same and you build upon it, our core being Welch, Wilson, Tait, Green etc

I see there isn't any props coming in the academy. Otherwise still looking forward to next season.
Has Ben Sowrey been released? Cannot see him on the squad list on the official site.
Ben is no longer with the club. A great lad who really gave his all, and parted on very good terms with everyone here.

Injury retirement I heard, unfortunate as he was a decent player
Will Dom Waldouck be back with the Falcons full time next season, or is he still studying? He could easily fill the gap left by Mermoz, always been a big fan of Waldouck and hoping he gets more games this coming season.
Dom does pre season with us, goes to Oxford for a couple of months then comes back, same as last year.
Why doesn't the likes of Olmstead and Sowery get officially announced? A real shame that both players left.
We will always remember Sowery for that try against Bordeaux. Sublime.

Dean prefers to wait til players have found clubs, to announce. But if the player specifically wants to announce it’s generally not a problem.

Hi guys.
Over on the Bath boards, I'm trying to put together how each squad is looking; so full squads, academy, EQP status and pecking order - all that jazz.
If you could give me some feedback, I would like to get this as accurate as possible - so please point out any typos / human error I've made; obivous mistakes in the pecking order or "that guy plays tight head, not lose head" type things.
I will continue to edit all of this; and get it as accurate as I realistically can by season's kick-off.
Obviously, if you want to see what I've got for the other clubs, just visit the Bath board - it's currently a sticky thread (to keep the forum open for another fortnight)
Cheers; Aidan

Will we be seeing him run out on Saturday for a stretch of the legs?

The team hasn't been announced yet.
Is Nemani Nagusa with the squad and available for selection, as he was waiting for a work permit I believe. Has that all gone through yet, Smithy?
Nemani arrives this weekend so won't be available for this game. He gets here on Saturday I believe.
Smithy, sorry to keep bugging you (and we do appreciate the responses), but........any update on when the team photos will take place and when the website profiles will get updated new season photos?
Team photo is Aug 20, profiles updated within a couple of weeks of that.
What do we reckon on Falcons' fortunes for this coming season?
Strengthened enough to contend for playoffs again?
A bit more of a damning indictment here :

Can only hope it's way off the mark !

Nah, cant agree with 10th!
The squad looks good. Stability from the last few seasons is crucial, and a few of the youngsters will add some pizzazz.
Players like Callum Chick look like this could be there season to really show their potential.

I agree. The worry is the amount of money flying around BUT, as we can see with ashton, solomona, to some extent yarde and cipriani, these players bring trouble as well.
I hope the academy guys come through and that we hit top six but i wouldn't be surprised if we dropped away. Logically it would happen with our modest budget and champions cup committments BUT sport doesn't work like that. Culture, culture, culture is king and i think we have a good one. COME ON FALCONS
Is Solomona any better than young Radwan or Kibirige at the moment? I honestly wouldn't swap them.
Don't discount stability either. This squad know each other very well now. They fight for each other and are well drilled in Deans requirements and tactics.
Yes we lost 4 important guys to retirement, but we have replaced them with very good premiership experienced players. Plus we have added a lot of potential.
If you were at the Nottingham game you would have seen a lot of them getting a run out and their enthusiasm is just so infectious.
We've also got Cavubati playing which he didn't last season.
Dean is a shrewd, knowledgeable character. He knows how to put together a good squad. Yes money is tight but all the same..he says these lads are ready.
He built the Harlequins side that won the title...including bringing through Robshaw etc etc.
Im confident

Any way we can add contract expiry to those we know of?
Does anyone know what is wrong with Sean Robinson? I genuinely feel he's our best lock forward, and yet hes seemingly permanently injured.
Sean is out at the moment with a broken arm
Poor lad seems to have been out for such a long time going back even to most of last season . I do think we've missed him as well.
Cracking player.

I'm sure he broke it down at Sale - when in the midst of a return from a broken arm.
could be wrong tho
Sean re-broke the arm at Northampton on Dec 1, hopefully will be back some point in March. He was getting a right beasting yesterday. I was tired just watching it!
Well that's good to hear....could you imagine the impact he could have if he gets back on the pitch fit and raring to go. He's another leader, lineout guru and tackler supreme who we've missed big time!

Aren't Mullen and Cowell big elsewhere now ?
Cowell is on loan with Donacaster, but still our player Steve, and with rumours about Hammersley on the move, may come into it next season.
Im also not sure about Mullen...kept him in for the moment.

I’m pretty sure both have left permanently now. Cowell signed permanently with Doncaster for next season and Mullen is back in the US playing in the MLR, I believe.
