We need a decent, seasoned prop to take us up the field and we pretty much need an entirely new back line.

I reckon dalton grant will be the one retiring

Gibson or Garside to retire

Milton left a while back.think he's qualified as an accountant and got himself a good job.he's probably the retiring player.

Left us in May

Yes, that's correct.

John Kear mentioned it in one of the Pulse 2 interviews.

I'd be tempted to say this too. I believe his family are moving to Scotland at the end of the school year

Gibson for me. Due to form & injuries he’s been unable to keep hold of a centre spot this year.

Brown is a FB/winger. I just think we need a player in whichever position he’s not playing in. A back line of Hitchcox, Evans, Webster, Brown + Another is fine for me

In order of priority I'd hope we were looking for a halfback, a prop forward and a front row/loose.
I'm actually ok with the backs we have and I think if Grant and Gibson leave then players from our academy can step up.

The foundations of a good side are built in the pack and the halves. The backs are essentially luxuries and I wouldn't want us to be using too much of our budget in that area. You could argue that whilst Webster has been very good for us and very consistent, we're still not getting our money's worth because our play is so poor that he never gets the ball in a position where he can do damage with it.

Hadn't heard that but when I spoke to Flanagan at Odsal recently said no discussions had taken place regarding a new contract.

I wouldn't mid signing Ryan Shaw back from HKR. Very good scoring record and a superb goalkicker as we know from his time with us. He is off contract at HKR and I don't think it would break the bank to sign him.

I did think about Ryan Shaw too, but I think the Brown signing probably means we won't be in for him. Shaw would probably have pretty high wage demands too I reckon.

Every good side has an excellent spine which the rest of the team should be built around. I completely understand what you are saying about Webster as he should be lethal from 20yrds out yet he rarely gets the ball at full pace.

For me, Hitchcox could be awesome from full back in the same vain Jake Mullaney did from that position if we decided to let the players play what is in front of them.

Another half back to compliment Lilley and Keyes (depends on how Milnes recovers), two new wingers and a new prop would also be on my priority wish list.

I think if we are to be ambitious about making a real push up the table we need to make a good 6-7 new signings for next season.

Would he?

He's being let go by a team that still might get relegated. How many clubs are going to be offering him big money? I would have thought the chance to be FT at a club like us is possibly as good as it would get for him for next season...
