Off-season Grade: B+

The Saints again turned their focus to ready-made players in the exchange period and got good players too. They maybe didn't get the outside midfielder they were after but Brad Crouch is a good addition nonetheless.

Jack Higgins and James Frawley are both in Ratten's best 22, while Shaun McKernan will provide depth with Paddy Ryder and Rowan Marshall both set to miss Round 1.
