Personally don't think Webb warrants a 2 year deal, he's lost a good yard of pace, he'd still do a job next season but another after that i'm not so sure.. I'm sure Leeds can spend his salary elsewhere.. however we must add to our attacking threat next season in his absence

I heard SAGA were the main front runners for sponsor

Personally, I think the Webb decision is more to do with Discipline and attitude than about quality and pace.

He really is getting worse with the petulance, rather than taking the warnings correctly.

Dissapointed with the decision though to retain Kylie (who IMO shoudn't have had contract this year), and releasing Webb.

Can't say I really care how old he is, if Kylie is doing the business and can keep doing so next year, then why get rid?

I guess this is where we have been the last few years when it comes to "major player announcements". FFS.

And if GH wants to break the Leeds record for oldest prop in the 1st team he will have to offer Kylie a lot more than a one year extension.

Webb has been a fantastic player for Leeds but with some reasonable cover at FB it was IMO the right decision not to offer a 2 year extention. So thanks Brent and good luck with the Catalans where his style will suit them.

With regard to Kylie this again is a sensible decision. Although a big fan of Kylie's contribution at Leeds I have been citical in recent times as I felt he was not earning his corn. However as the season has progressed he has regained some impact and although we have some younger props available it makes sense to retain his experience for another year while they gain theirs.

Kyliesaurus.

Oh dear, rats and the ships spring to mind.

Agree with Gotcha - great player but has been inconsistent and his gobby protests are responsible for so many penalties that I am looking on getting rid of that as the main positive. I think he has been a huge player for us and gratitude and good wishes go to him. Billy Slater? NO THANKS!

Oh dear.



Can only hope the club has the sense to prioritise Singleton and D.Smith next season. Looks like we can def say farewell to Ambler and Amor. ....unless

Kirke becomes the sacrificial lamb on the altar of help the aged.

Which players of his age are getting longer deals? (I can't remember any that stand out - I know Sinny signed a long deal last year but he's surely a special case)

Webb leaving will be a big change from a tactical point of view but had to happen at some point and we seem to have a lot of (non-webb like) options at FB (BJB, Hardaker, Smith, Briscoe and isn't the lad in the U20's meant to be pretty good). Also from a playmaker point of view we've Ward coming through and with Webb could potentially have ended up with too many Chiefs and not enough Indians.

As for Kylie IMHO he's playing much better now than he was when he announced his intention to retire so I can understand the change of heart from both parties. Also he's probably cheap now (good old GH

).
