I wonder if he will be replaced,given how early in the season it is and if so, by who?.
We really don't need a poor desperation signing. Not going pall out for Walmsley is looking like another poor decision given our packs age, injury prone players and reliance on overseas

Rumour has it we have already started to replace him.
Anyone`s guess with who though.
My guess was Keegan Hirst but I`m sure that will be wrong.

My bet is someone not good enough or someone to fill a position we don't need xD

You really do come over as a complete in your comments.

Say what now ?

Can't see us making a signing until middle of season at earliest. Our back row is ageing so wouldn't be surprised to see us sign a younger 2nd rower.

Rhinos put their faith in Cameron Smith and Josh Jordan Roberts eventually delivering the goods rather than signing James Bentley from the Bulls last year

Only time will tell if that was the correct choice

Has Bentley got any game time for Saints yet?

i think he's been out on dual reg in the championship so far (I forget which team exactly), but might be wrong

Jordan-roberts looked good at Bulls up until his injury. Cameron Smith more of the opposite never looked interested when playing for Bulls.poor tackling efforts too.

bentley hasn't made the gameday squad for saints this season as of yet


bentley is currently playing for sheffield eagles in the championship

bentley was signed by saints imo as one for the future just as he would have been if the rhinos had signed him.
the rhinos clearly thought that they had better prospects within the club and didn't wish to progress the bentley deal

as i said previously time will tell whether or not we missed out on a potential international back rower.
it's a big year for cameron smith as his form and progression to the first team has coughed and spluttered for the past couple of seasons,some of which was down to injuries,the disappointing thing is that he looked sensational whilst playing for the u19's

Cam Smith has never looked sensational in any 19s game I saw. He's been disappointing in truth.
