Agree bederus will leave a big hole in our team, but hopefully as I think others have said the extra work needed in defence can be shared around the squad

Senior's had his say on the number 4 shirt on Twitter, not entirely sure what point he's trying to get across.

Because Daryl Powell's the coach there?
Bit of mutual back-scratching? ... a win-win situation. Fine by me.

I never go on Twitter so perhaps you could tell me what he has tweeted?

Dunno about the first game, but as a first choice 17, I'd keep Burrow as an interchange option with Sinfield at 6. If it ain't broke and all that.

Direct quotes off his account: "Bloody hell. End of an era with the number 4 shirt. Presumption is the mother of all f*** ups Tweeples ha."

Link, or whats his name?

@KeithSenior4

I thought the same, genuinely don't see what he's trying to say, just seems unneccessary.

leeds legend and one of the best to grace the game but this just stinks of sour grapes, schofield in the making perhaps

i hope not, it would be a shame

I presume he is saying he thought he would get the number 4 shirt, but being as only offer he has is pay and play can't see why he would think that

on Hardaker, i can see an off season on the weights. Has all the skills/footwork to make it justs needs a bit of bulk, but not too much to dull his pace methinks.

i'm not sure it's sour grapes he is just saying it's the end of an era not to see the name senior on the number 4 shirt perhaps?

Definately. He's still so raw and has only had one season in Super League under his belt.
Despite his size he didn't look a weak link defensively when playing centre last season, against some very good centres as well.
He didn't look to pass to his winger very often but I would imagine that will come with time. It should also help that he sticks to the same side of the pitch for the majority of the year, last year he was filling it at both left and right centre, although that just shows his talent.
