I believe Billy Jowitt has too. Leeds have offered contracts earlier this year, to try and get tied up before other clubs can approach.

Luke has signed for our U19s. Very very happy as he has looked the real deal from what I've seen in his performances for the Scholarship. Don't be too disheartened as in 12 months we will have our regular off field melt down and our young stars that John Bastian & co have developed and nurtured will be snapped up. Hope we finally have the off-field stability for our academy (which IMO has always been top draw despite all off-field rubbish)

McGuire - Comfirmed as leaving
Burrow - Believed to be retiring
JJB - Wants another year
Sutcliffe - hopefully stays
Handley - Would let go
Lilley - Signed new deal
Baldwinson - hopefully stays
Hallas - believed to have signed for Bradford permanent
Walters - would let go
Smith - hopefully stays.

Look to offload Briscoe too.

Jack Walker is also OOC

Technically he's not, he's still on an under 19s contract but is able to sign a full time if available.

Sutcliffe is OOC next season.

1 Golding, 2 Briscoe, 3 Watkins (C), 4 Moon, 5 Hall, 6 Lilley, 7 Myler, 8 Galloway, 9 Parcell, 10 Cuthbertson, 11 Ablett, 12 JJB, 13 Ward (VC), 14 Sutcliffe, 15 Delaney, 16 Singleton, 17 Garbutt, 18 Keinhorst, 19 Ferres, 20 Mullally, 21 Baldwinson, 22 Ormondroyd, 23 Oledzki, 24 Smith, 25 Walker, 26 Aston, 27 Bentley, 28 Jordan-Roberts, 29 A Sutcliffe, 30 Holroyd.

Plenty of young potential in that squad for the future but fear we need some more quality signings to remain in the hunt for trophies

I wouldn't hesitate to give Stevie Ward the captaincy. Whether or not he'd want the responsibility is another matter though.

Watkins has admitted he is a shy person and that in my opinion shyness would inhibit a captain

Good news, Hep Cahill has signed on at Widnes for 2 more years. That was a close escape...

Hep Hep hooray .......I'll get my coat.

I agree with you Ward would be great as Captain next season, he would be my choice. and he got the makings to be a Leeds great. His work rate in matches is intense, though yet to get to the tackle level before his major injury. He is passionate and leads by example. Off the pitch seems down to earth , pleasant, is media savvy, love his analysis of matches He would motivate and inspire the squad ,just what you want in a Captain. That said I would be hesitant to offer him as be gets injured far too much...handing the Captaincy would be tempting fate. and I am far too superstitious. ..I would maybe offer it to Parcell as a means of ensuring he stays at the club or go with one of Kev's choices Ryan Hall. Wouldn't be surprised though if it is given to Ablett .

1 Golding, 2 Briscoe, 3 Watkins, 4 Moon, 5 Hall, 6 Lilley, 7 Myler, 8 Galloway, 9 Parcell, 10 Cuthbertson, 11 Ablett 12 Jones-Buchanan, 13 Ward, 14 Dwyer, 15 Delaney, 16 Singleton, 17 Garbutt, 18 Keinhorst, 19 Ferres, 20 Mullally, 21 Baldwinson, 22 Ormondroyd, 23 Oledzki, 24 Smith, 25 Aston, 26 Jordan-Roberts, 27 A Sutcliffe, 28 Newman, 29 Whiteley, 30 Bentley

I reckon this is how it could be going on signings so far.
