| Arthur never played first grade.
For Leeds there's an obvious former player as successful coach in Syd Hynes. Just for completeness - I think its generally not a great idea.

| Pretty happy with that, think I can confidently say no matter how long he stays, we’ll be stronger when he leaves compared to when he arrived.

| Great news, im looking forward to seeing how he guides the recruitment we need in the pack. The more i think about it (and with the news that Martin to HKR isnt yet confirmed) i hope he might have a Uturn with the news of Arthur staying, especialy if he doesnt count on the quota next year?

| Good news a full preseason with Arthur should see a big improvement .Surely the only place he'll he'll look to strengthen is the pack.

I think Hull KR losing Opacic at the end of the year means they will announce Martin soon.

Probably so, Im sure Peters slight deviation in his response to whether theyre signing him is justa standard reply but left me with a chink of hope.

That would probably mean only one prop coming in.

Would it? I like Martin but also not sure where we're going to get a reliable kicker from, and if he goes im not sure the back row options are sufficient as they are, we'd be putting a lot of hope in Gannon getting back on track.

I’m not sure we have enough strike in the backs to completely ignore their part in a so far poor season. The pack has obviously been the weaker of the two areas but to completely abdicate the backs of any responsibility would be wrong. If cap restrictions deem the pack is the only place where players move in/out that’s understandable, but my preference would be to strengthen throughout the team. Arthur may believe changes in structure, fitness, confidence and other small areas will give him a more potent back line and ultimately yield more points. My concerns are a sub standard kicking game, a lack of pace from distance and a lack of guile and strength on the opposition line from our current backs. Rome wasn’t built in a day, and if the pack becomes the only focus imminently then so be it, but I’d be happier to look at strengthening throughout.

| Half this squad will be crapping themselves regarding pre-season - they best have plenty of sick buckets they are going to need them.

I'm not saying I'm totally happy with our backs ,I just can't see us having enough cap space to strengthen both pack and and backs.
