We also don't know what financial deal has been agreed with Ablett and JJB. They may have agreed lower salaries to continue this year as more squad players and backroom influencers.

Yet we still wasted money on Ablett Jjb & L.Briscoe.

Dunno about Ablett and Briscoe but I rather get the impression JJB would be willing to help the Leeds cause, in whatever way he could, for a tube of extra strong mints or similar. So I can't be too critical of the decision to contract him without having the first clue regarding the contents of said contract.

Under salaray cap rules are thry allowed to say play for peanuts this year and you’ll get a cushy office/media job when you retire?

I dont think JJB will be short of offers in RL post-playing. He single handedly ran Englands social media campaign on the Knights PNG tour. Sterling effort!

JJb as eraned the right for one final swansong, expect him to be used sparingly, Ablett can still due a jobm, but does notb want flogging. L briscoe i though he looked good last year and deserves a contract doubt it will be a big one.

Agree about Luke Briscoe. Think he went well for us when he re-joined and will surprise a lot of folk. I'd definitely prefer him on the flank to Handley, who looks a better centre than wing IMO.

Yes, I agree with this

His pace and agility near the corner flag will be plus's but under the high ball at the other end would be my worry.

FTFY

I would say is offering a 3 year contract is a strong indicator that he will be our starting winger. If it was going to be Handley they I'm not sure you would offer Luke such a long contract. You'd probably just offer him a year and see where we were in 2020.

With hands that bad I wouldn't even trust him with the water
