I know you can’t keep everyone but you let Mulhearn go and he’s turned out to be a gem

Agreed the best prop outside of the top 4

The game time wasn't there for him though at the time he moved on. Oledzki is going to be a gem in 2/3 years but has been over exposed this year.

Garbutt is massive for us he is 50 percent of our go forward and when he isn't there we look out matched by most packs to be honest. Cuthbertson sadly looks a plodder of late, not sure it was wise to give him a new deal but there is hope he could be revitalised under a new regime. Singleton is a decent rotation prop but outside that there isn't much else in the core middle of the pitch setting a plat form, that has to be addressed most of all for me and start building from there.

Peteru has gone well when he’s played

I am surprised Briscoe has escaped any flack so far on this thread. He offered little today. A dramatic loss of for my or permanent decline?

I wasn't a fan of Cuthbertson getting a 2 year deal. He's 32 and frankly as the senior prop he's completely MIA when it comes to the tough stuff. I couldn't care less how good his offload game was 3 seasons ago - we need him to muscle up. It was exactly that issue, the desire to showboat instead of roll his sleeves up and do the hard yards which saw him booted sharpish by Bennett following a less than stellar NRL career.

In terms of the rest, being realistic we can't get rid of contracted players, but the likes of Cuthbertson could and should be made to play DR/on loan if they're not delivering.

There's no grounds at all for re-signing anyone currently off contract. We as a club have shown loyalty to the older guys, and if there was only one we could even continue to do so, but the time has come to call it quits.

I'd like us to focus on genuine quality if possible, but it won't be easy to sign more than one or two of the level we need. We're starting that process way too late as most players are contracted way before now. I'm wondering whether a 'Survivor' style approach to a few younger Championship forwards might be worth trying - give them an off-season and a year to show if they can make it at Leeds, and assume that out of 3 maybe one will. Fleary had zero pedigree when we signed him, and Farrell not much more, and yet they delivered more than a lot more fancied signings.

I was disappointed Cuthbo got a deal at all. We've had the best out of him. Giving him a 2yr deal was criminal.

Hand on heart, has he been any cop since 2015?

Adam Cuthbertson = Matt Adamson

Whilst I’d love to see us make loads of changes and have a clear out, I can’t see us losing a lot of players. Hall confirmed as going, Jordan-Roberts and Galloway already gone. Lilley out on loan to Bradford. That’s four players who had squad numbers already.

Ablett, L Briscoe, Delaney, JJB, Keinhorst, Moon, Mullally, Thompson, Walters left out of contract. Crosby on loan but out of contract at Warrington. Moon already stated himself he’s leaving, Keinhorst signed for Hull KR.

Walters and Mullally rumoured to have signed new deals. Expecting Thompson and Briscoe to be given new deals. Crosby already signed elsewhere apparently. That leaves Ablett, Delaney and JJB all of which I’d be happy to let go.

Totally agree a clear out is required but doubt any player on a contract will leave just to help out the club.
Trying to make any decent signings will depend on which league we are playing in.
All the criticism of McDermott who in my opinion should have gone last year proves even with the messiah on board the playing squad was not up to it and that criticism should be placed firmly on GH `s door.
As good as Sinfield is he isn`t going to turn this team round in a hurry.
With the players leaving and the players not up to it we need about 6 or 7 new signings which I`m not sure isn`t going to happen.

If you need a Centre/Full Back, perhaps Wigan can interest you in a Dan Sarginson?

Please, take him.
