Here's an excerpt from Aberavon's message board....

I am one of Aberavon's biggest supporter. But im a bit concerned and excited at the the time.Im concerned about Ponntypool's signings theve got a lot of experience in the squad now and some ex internationals. This could work in two way's first the experience of those players will tell its toll at the end of next season or the age of those players will tell its toll when we welcome those players to the first division and injury upon injury will be the end of those money spent player's.Also there's a lot of excitement of what chris trying to achieve with the combination of three well known clubs.
Aberavon have made some interesting signing's but with Pontypool thinking they've already got the title in their hands what would you prefer a couple of well known players at the end of their career when injuries effect them most or a group of young fast players desperate to put on the Blood and Blacks jersey and prove themselves.
Pontypools new signings WELCOME TO THE WORLD OF HURT AND THE FIRST DIVISION MAY IT HAUNT YOU FOR THE REST OF YOUR PLAYING DAYS

They sound worried...and when you look at it on paper we have the beating of them. However we must go into the season with the right attitude, similar to that of the end of last season. If we are two scores up then score some more, don't sit back and relax. Let's try a rule of no unnecessary substitution until we are 5 scores clear rather than the 2-3 scores that we seemed to adopt last year.
C'Mon Pooler let's show everyone we are the best!!

Cheers...Glyn
P.S. I am still concerned about our lack of props at the moment. I hope the last 2-3 signings strengthen that area.
