I thought the total opposite to be honest and thought that Hall being brought in would only help people like Lumb, Roberts, McCormack etc. His knowledge and him giving them tips can only be good as he plays out his final year and they gain from that

I agree with this. Also think it helps Hall has openly said it’ll be his last year. Means the younger end can see that path isn’t blocked.

What’s Ava up to these days? Based on his performances for us - albeit in 2020 - he’d be just what we need (aside from a new coach).

Out of contract players able to talk to other clubs from tomorrow (officially).

James Donaldson, David Fusitua, Corey Johnson, Rhyse Martin, Tom Nicholson-Watton, Luis Roberts are all out of contract with us.

Think it’s already apparent with the signing of Hall that Fusitua is leaving.
I won’t be surprised if Donaldson, Johnson and Roberts join that list. Roberts only because Edgell, J Smith, McCormack, Lumb are highly rated at the club.

Martin aside I am not sure that the OOC players will be top of other clubs list to phone first!

If we can keep Martin / no good strike BR available i would for a year or two.TNW we should keep too.

Hopefully Fusi, Donaldson etc are moving on no matter what.

Shame about CJ, he could have been the answer to the hooking role if he hadn't taken the time out or had come back stronger. I'd look to retain Martin and think TNW has signed again already, but the others can all leave with varying degrees of thanks. I wouldn't be surprised to see other players in contract also leaving too.

Which Leeds player currently contracted do you believe would be offered a better deal elsewhere that means they would request a contract release? Don't see any likely bits for players filling cap space! Best we can hope for is a couple of quality additions in the pack. Ideally a prop and a big second row of the fitzgibbon/Sironen mould and hopefully a better coached structured team.If we get the pack right and approach games differently from a tactical basis we could look a completely different team. The level of injuries we have had in the threequarters the last couple of years to me is connected to the amount of donkey work they have to do out of defence. Not sure if the budget stretches that far but its McMeekan and an experienced NRL prop for me and go with the kids in the backs.

Holroyd Nrl bound 2025 Rabbits

Rhyse Martin same as above

Is that definite or just hearsay still?

Is it confirmed Holroyd will leave?
Shame if he does as I was a big fan but don`t think he`s kicked on this season or the last tbf.
Martin I can see and understand him leaving to play for the new club in the NRL.
But like what`s been mentioned a Fitzgibbon/Sironen type BR would be high on the list along with a couple of props at least 1 in the Lisone mould.
Any thoughts of Cam Smith playing prop Frawley to LF and Sinfield to SH against London?

Holroyd still under contract for 2025 so transfer fee required I presume?

Good thing we don't need young British props that are academy trained.

Holroyd is one of 4 SL props Souths are interested in. Tom Amone from Leigh, and George Delaney at Saints are 2 of the others. I doubt Holroyd goes anywhere at the moment. Frankly, he hasn't even shown his body can handle consistent SL game time, so Souths would be mad to go for him, at this point, IMO
