He is

Wonder if the coaching recruitment will hold up further player recruitment. We need some backs.

Quote: Ckt2487 "https

Most of those seem pretty obvious - either youngsters who never stepped up or older, injury-prone players who weren't worth keeping around.

Doro is off to Hull KR, and I assume Fulton is signing somewhere else (so no need to keep Lehmann)

Bit surprised at Franco and, maybe, Butler

Agree
Think Butler was too injury prone to keep around.
Fulton was offered a new deal but turned it down to return to Australia I guess the homesick rumours were true.
Franco is a surprise.
I wonder if the Walmsley rumours are true.

We released Olpherts but retained Walmsley so this would suggest the latter is in our plans for next season. The former was interesting Featherstone but, I suppose it’s what your new coach and the player himself wants.

Disappointing for Butler, thought he was one of our best back-rowers when fit.

A lot of players moving on. Wonder if we're hoping some from the academy will be ready to step up. Always felt like we had a gap in our conveyor belt with Lawford & Flanagan being sold. Never really felt the names who signed from the academy last year were going to break through.

Maybe Ackroyd and Bateman will kick on a bit in 2025. I hope we do see some more coming through as to compete at the level we're now at we won't be able to afford to sign ready made players in all positions.

Can't really argue with any of the departures. The only one I'd wanted to keep was Fulton and he's obviously keen to get back home (watch him turn up at Salford or something now!).

It does show that we need to recruit some backs. I'd re-sign Taufua even if he's had some problems with his tackling technique. His carries are key for getting us on the front foot. We need at least three wingers in the squad and another centre. Arundal has been decent for us but was struggling with his injuries. Wonder where he's gone. He's a good defensive centre when he's fit.

I believe Arundel may have gone to Batley.

Jamie Gill added to the 2025 squad I see. He's a big lad, hopefully he's another that gets a bit of first team action next year.
