Central Coast today have announced the signing of British enforcer Adrian Morely, which will complete in Magro's eyes, the most dominate forward pack of the modern game.

Morely will partner with England's no#1 prop Stuart Fielden and the best rated English hooker Mick Higham who was lured away from the Fairfield Stallions. The backrow will consists of England vice captain Paul Sculthorpe, English young-gun Garreth Hock and James Manson who has revieled his Grandparents were English.

"I don't think the ASRL has ever seen a singular side dedicated to the growth and domination for the English. If you look back into past seasons, Premier League powerhouse clubs have developed their nations teams. Gold Coast worked closely with Australia and Wellington with the Kiwi's. On the other hand, the poms have been scattered all over three divisions" said Magro

"What you will see next year is a singular well oiled unit. We are relieving the pressure of Brent Sherwins kicking game with the new evolutions of Falcons style. In the past we've had a dominating backline or a strong forward pack, next year we'll have both, especially after the capture of Leslie Vainakolo from Wellington. All 6 of our starting forwards bring something unique to the pack but effectivly should complement each other. Stu Fielden is the new age athlete, similar to Jason Ryles and Sonny-Bill Williams. Mick Higham brings youth and vision from dummy-half. Mozza is the old school forward who leads by example with grit and brute strength. James Manson brings an effective short kicking game which is unexpected from a forward. Garreth is one of the most effective 1-on-1 tackler and Scully is a jack of all trades style player whos leadership skills are invaluable.

Then to top this all off, we have Kiwi sensation Roy Asotasi, junior Lion Andy Lynch, Greek force Michael Korkidas, experienced vetran Matt Adamson, 7 season serving Falcon Sam Isemonger and City representitive Reni Maitua.

"I've always respected the Sydney Oilers and Northern Cannons forward pack, sometimes to the extent of envy. We've always relied on our kicking to make the big metres but watching the way the Cannons play, you can see there are other ways. I think the Falcons have become predictable this season but I believe this reinvention should blow the competition away if we can gel early." said Magro
