I like your confidence kiddo but I guess we will have to wait and see. TBH I'm suprised I'm the only one who thinks like this.
I just think compared to our forwards we have a good starting team but no depth. If we get a couple of injuries I think we will lack quality and maybe struggle to score tries.
In our forwards we have plenty of depth, whereas the backs it will just have to be youngsters coming through (which by the way I think is good and we have done it for many a year. But I think with a couple of injuries we may have to rely on them in stead of them breaking into the team)
Just my opinion and I like I said we will just have to wait and see what happens.

| Quote: Rich Rhino "Ok. Lets just say for example we have 3 injuries at the same time. Burrow, Webb and Hall.
In this situation which backs would you play? And who would we have on the bench.
Don't get me wrong I agree we have a great squad with some top quality forwadrs but I just think with a couple of injuries we may be abit thin on numbers and could do with a couple more utility backs.
IMO I think we are abit short in the backs.'"
BJB replaces Webb
McGuire replaces Burrow
Sinfield moves to stand-off
Ablett moves to LF
Watkins replaces Hall
It would give us a team of:
1. BJB
2. Donald
3. Delaney
4. Senior
5. Watkins
6. Sinfield
7. Burrow
8. Leuluai
9. Diskin
10. Peacock
11. JJB
12. Ali
13. Ablett
14. Buderus
15. Eastwood
16. Burgess
17. Kirke
And we'd still have available:
Bailey, Pitts, Amor, Ambler, Coady, McShane, Worrall on loan and some more youngsters
We have plenty of depth in both the forwards and backs.

As I said, we would need 3 or 4 injuries in one position to be struggling, thats a freakish amount and can't be planned for, anything less than that and we're fine.

O.k so no back on the bench, I know we have a few utility players (ablett, JJB, sinfield etc).
But your missing my point, do you not think with a few injuries in the backs then we might have to rely on a few youngster in stead of them coming through slowly and at there own pace. I understand every youngster that has come through our rank has had their chance along the way. IMO a couple of injuries and we could struggle.

I don't think it would be 3 or 4 in 1 position but that’s my opinion I suppose. Lets just wait and see. I just see a lot more strength in our forwards than our backs. Any way lets just hope my example of a few injuries dose not happen at the same time and we keep winning

We rarely have a back on the bench so I don't see your point.

No I don't. Only with a lot of injuries in one position would we struggle, as any team would with a lot of injuries in one position. I don't quite understand how much more cover you want.
We have as cover:
1 specialist full back (BJB)
3 wingers (BJB, Coady & Watkins)
2 specialist centres (Coady and Watkins)
1 stand off (Sinfield)
2 scrum halves (McGuire and McShane)
only BJB and Watkins are under the age of 20.

To start with BJB is at Quins so he is obviously not in Blueys plans,
Coady from what i have seen of him he is about year away from breaking into the team and not good enough yet.
I like watkins and think he is our only utility back that we could use.
And I don't think McShane is a scrum half, a good hooker but not a scrum half.
Who does that leave?

Of course he's in Bluey's plans or he'd have been sold. He has a recall clause in his loan and as i understand the only reason he's been sent on loan is because of new academy age rules.
Quote: Rich Rhino " from what i have seen of him he is about year away from breaking into the team and not good enough yet.'"
Of course he's not breaking into the team yet, he's only just arrived and has Senior and Delaney ahead of him, he was brought to the club for strength in depth.
Quote: Rich Rhino " I don't think McShane is a scrum half, a good hooker but not a scrum half.'"
As i understand it he started off at scrum half, and whilst is obviously a hooker now could probably fill in a scrum half if he had to.
Quote: Rich Rhino " Who does that leave?'"
Sinfield, McGuire & Ablett, are they adequate to fill the gaps? We have great strength in depth, the best I've seen for years. I really don't know what you expect the club to do, we can't be 4 deep in every position with 25 year old world class players, no club is. In my opinion we have by far the strongest squad of any club in SL.

| I doubt Leeds would recall BJB if Webb was only out for one or two games.
