I would like to think that we will have reasonable room to move for next season. It looks certain that Fus is leaving (big cap space) and that others will create room (Olpherts, Donaldson). If Martin does go, whilst a loss that would be more cap space too. I think Blease will also look to shift some of those coming to their final year like Frawley, Bentley & Sangare, assuming better players are available.

Then we need to replace with players who wouldn't be out of place at the top level, so all likely starters, unless he thinks Sinfield will be ready to replace Frawley by next March.

I can see quite a turnaround on both the coaching and playing side at the end of the year, but no movement on either before then.

It will be interesting to see how Gannon comes back, he's got a whole season to train and bulk up. I've always been a big fan, if he can put the concussions behind him and comeback as a real bruiser he could be a huge asset.

He's been a big loss. Huge talent imo.

Martin might just end up being a casualty of other recruitment decisions being poor. He brings a lot - speed, consistency and goal kicking - but what we desperately lack in the pack is the one thing he doesn't bring, which is physical presence. I can't see us getting the sort of big boppers we need in England so we may have to sacrifice him to free up a quota spot.

RS saying today Martin has been offered a deal - it's something Blease will be sorting from next week onwards so he's yet to take it as it stands.

Plenty of 'irreplaceable' players left Salford under Blease and they managed to find replacements that were more than able. We shouldn't pay over the odds to keep Martin, as much as it would be nice for him to stay. The pack needs major surgery and his departure could open doors to signings that will make a real difference.

Clearly lots of fans want RS gone, but looking at the performance today I am still concerned about that squad.

Almost a first choice side and we still looked clueless at times. Hull were more physical than us.

Blease needs to set the bar much higher. If an incoming player doesn’t look like a top-3 player, don’t sign them. If we have existing senior players who can’t reach that level, move them on.

We have a couple of young forwards - TNW, Ruan and maybe Littlewood - who should be given a proper chance ahead of some of the numpties currently playing every week. Not sure there's any point playing Frawley ahead of Sinfield either.

Looks like Luke Keary is available for SL clubs for next season, with Catalans the favourites to sign him. If there's a chance, we should be on the phone right away

I think he’s available to Catalans, a final lucrative oay day in the south of France will always be very appealing to nrl players, they have a history of it

Who are you taking out of the pack for those three?

Does it matter? I'd frankly drop Cameron Smith at the moment. Goudemand doesn't add much, and size apart neither does Sangare. Genuine question back to you, who deserves to keep their place if there was a viable alternative?

Quality player but we don't have the available cap and would be a terrible move for him having to play behind the current Leeds pack.

Not many and you mention viable alternative unfortunatly whats left are kids and adding three will only compound the problem.Smith is really out of form.
