Quote: mattsrhinos1978 "Yeah I get that, but the timing of the annoucment would be very foolish of the club if his appointment was based on us staying in superleage, you would think the club would wait until superleague status was guarenteed (or not) before an annoucment, if that was a stipulation in him coming.'"

We will be in super league easily think some people are over estimating the strength of the teams in this comp. plus league yslikely tobe increased to 14 next year anyway.

Quote: Fallon "Is the pack really a huge issue though? As of right now we have;
Parcel and Dwyer as hookers. Happy with both and they both have different attributes.
Garbutt, singleton, petru, cuthbo, Crosby, mullally, olejdski as props. Sure another big prop would be great but if Furner can get these guys firing then they can set a platform.

There were holes all over the shop last season and now we should have a decent half back pairing so myler isn't having to do everything and two strike centres we should be better.

Last season was not just poor because of the front row.'"

I do agree it wasn't our only problem: it's just I think we've gone a long way to fixing the other bits already as you say, with 2x strike centres and Tui/McClelland to partner Myler. And, I can't stand having a soft/busted pack in principle.

Quote: KaeruJim "I do agree it wasn't our only problem
I agree that if Garbutt does go (I really don't get the logic behind that if he does) then the front row suddenly does look weaker which is why ideally we need at least one more big hitting prop, two if Garbutt goes.

But, if we did go with what we have now I think we will go ok given the improvements elsewhere.

That said, I do expect two new forwards to come in. Hopefully they will be a high g improvement on what we have now and we can start thinking about a top 4 6 if not too 4 place.

For me you can’t afford to give up on any season if you’re a club like Leeds, despite the rebuild. We do still have some very good players. If we add two really high quality forwards for 2019, with the Furner effect I would expect us to be there or thereabouts.

If we add two real quality forwards, (I'd prefer two props + use Peters in the back row) we will win the GF again

We'd certainly look handy. Agree re. Peteru. Two really good props to get us forward and give us some whack in defence again, I think that side has potential suddenly. Even Handley on the wing could go well if he'll take a high ball and defend.
