The majority on here seem to be settled with our BR options, but for me we are short of quality there. Especially now Merrin has left. Hopefully some young players can use this as a chance to break through.

Short of 1 more quality prop, second row, and outside back imo.

I am looking for a huge improvement on last season and I think the club need to be bold in the challenges they set themselves and the players this season. They shouldn't advertise this externally but internally I would want the senior management to be targeting;
Top 3 finish. Yes it's a big challenge but we should aim high.
Finish the cull of the old guard. The likes of Briscoe, Myler and cuthbo to me three but there are more.
Blood the youngsters in a controlled way and develop genuine paths to the first team.
No panic buys. If we can't get anyone in the off-season then sit tight. Get the right players in.
Proper succession planning needs to be constantly in place and understood by scouts at all levels and the coaching teams of the lower age teams.

I think we are making reasonable progress on all of these fronts already but we need to keep going and really push this club back to the top again.

Walters A Suttcliffe and Muizzi are the young ones we have.If we have injuries im hoping we give these kids a go.Morley broke into the team young I don't see any reason why Walters shouldn't get a go next season.

I’m sorry but you keep going about a centre? Newman has a very bright future and he needs to keep playing. If Hurrell has cut out a lot of the errors and stop coming in on defence he will easily be the best centre in super league. Things will go different this year with better support and Gale and Lui providing better passing options and with Martin the attacker he is, centres should have an easier job.

Wait till we get Jai Field, possibly.

And where would he play?

Featherstone

Cuthbertson came good towards the back end of last season. No way he doesn't get one of the four prop spots. Even more likely if you play a prop at Loose Forward.

Cuthbertson was excellent in the second half of the year, he has said that was down to Agar coming in and letting him play his natural game. I think Furner ed quite a few players off in one way or another

Cuthbo has spent a fair bit of time with niggling injuries and out for form (for various reasons) over the last couple of years for me. When he's good he's very good. Not necessarily a prop for me still though. Certainly not without more direct. big impact bodies around him anyway.

Would imagine this will be his last playing season at Leeds in any case.

I wouldn't be surprised if Muizz, Holroyd, McLelland made an impact on first grade this year. I know people want to sign and solve problems now, but actually if we're patient one or two more seasons we do have a very strong team developing here.

Made me laugh out loud that
