| All ifs,buts and maybe's at the moment. I wouldn't mind Lunt coming in on a short term deal, he was great for us in the Championship winning team and i was surprised we didn't try to sign him permanently then. I prefer Parcell as starting hooker to,at times, headless chicken Dwyer. get Myler a decent half partner whoever it may be. And for god sake get Sutcliffe and Ferres out of the team and the club asap.

It's likely the club will go with Myler and Lui I would say though, although I'd agree with you personally.
Again, just the fact we're seriously in for Lui must put Lolohea's future in doubt, given that he's ostensibly being signed for the position Tui was recruited for and FB is taken.

| Time will tell if the gamble will pay off. If we see a significant difference in our attack and direction as a team £66k even to avoid the uncertainty that relegation brings will surely be worth it.
WRT to his wage, I doubt many starting SL halves would be on anything less that say £120k surely?

Ferres just annoys me now. I can see why Sutcliffe has been retained, but moving position hasn't helped develop whatever talent he has over the past couple of seasons.
If anything, his future must be in the back row but I don't think he has the attitude for it, or the ability to push past the clutch of other back rowers we have.

You may be right - and to be fair they have a huge say in games and usually spend 80 mins on the field without needing to be spelled.
I would imagine Myler would be a on a reasonable wedge and although his effort is there, this season in particular has really shown his deficiencies.

That's a really good point Gotcha.

| I keep saying this but seriously, stop worrying about numbers quoted in the press. They are just made up.

Only if they do increase the marquee allowance to three,
or if we release Hurrell or Merrin.
Also: Leeds is rich compared to most SL clubs but our pockets aren’t bottomless. We still have to assemble a squad which, ideally, is good value for money.
I still think we need another couple of senior players even after 6 and 7 is sorted for 2020.

Also
Some would argue we need nearly a whole new team but I agree, let's get a decent halfback pair and then see where we are.

| 6 & 7 and 2nd row are the priority. Maybe hooker depending on what happens

| Right, fantasy time again but lets say we do sign both lui and Hastings, when was the last time a club signed a rival team’s first choice halfbacks? I don’t remember that happening before?
Looks like Lui will be coming anyway, he is a good player and will add something to the team so lets see how it pans out.
Watched a few of Salfords highlights since the rumours and to be fair he’s far better than what we have

| Far far better Christopher. I think the club deserves credit for trying to get it sorted whether it comes off remains to be seen
