Keinhorst is one of my favourite Leeds players. He gives his all and only time I can think of him having really struggled was after he returned from the hand injury. During 2016 his effort and determination stood out. Often tackles way above his weight, not massive "hits", but effective "copy book" tackles. I think it is a shame he hasn't had the opportunity at Leeds to move his career forward and I would absolutely wish him all the best at KR.

Was it just confirmed that Jimmy Keinhorst will be leaving Leeds Rhinos, or was his new club being Hull KR confirmed too?

Thanks!

No way we should be giving Ablett 2 years. If anything should be year by year from here. We have far too many back rows in their 30's who are injury prone and indeed on the treatment table for large chunks of the season.

In an ideal world all three of ablett, Delaney and jjb wouldn't be lining up for us next season but in reality it depends what our other options are. If we can't get anyone of better quality then they have to stay.

The question about why we can't get anything better than injury prone 30+'s is a different question and one the back room team need to sort out.

That said, I do expect some signings over the next couple of weeks to be announced and I expect at least one of the three above to leave and all of them by 2020.

I agree, but with a new coach in Furner coming it if he wants rid of the old guys over the next year and build his own team to find he is stuck with a load of old crocks will not make his job easy. Can only assume he has been consulted on this but seems odd from my POV

Why keep the same old players who this year have spent most of the time on the treatment table and also put us into the bottom four. We need a cull and it needs to start now. Unfortunately we all know that there wont be a cull. Rumours are rife that JJB has to make a decision on a one year deal, (I think he is hoping for a two year deal), I agree if he was looking to retire then it would already be around in the press. Delaney hasn't he now played for us for 9 years, so wouldn't a one year deal give him a testimonial, if this is the case then wont leave. Ablett he is another if he was to be leaving it would be all over the place, and at the last home game in the Legends suite there was not a mention about him going to Aus, and he would be leaving Leeds. Therefore it seems that the ambition of the Rhinos for next season wont be aiming for atop four place, again looking at mid table and sad to say the best we can hope for a cream of the crap.
