I don't like this side its the winger options that put me off

can't see King or Hickey being there next year personally.

Hickey is under contract so can't see him not being here, after all it's not like clubs are going to be flocking in with offers for him is it???

unless hes paid off or gets a job in a kebab shop back in Oz.

I think Hyde is still under contract and if someone can work with him on his confidence in taking on the line he could be a good prospect at Stand-Off, although this is where I would really like to see one of our quota spots used to bring in someone of genuine quality.
Higgins is under contract too I think and is the no-nonsense kind of prop that everyone needs in their squad IMO (nothing sparkling but willing to do the hard yards)
I'd hope to keep Howarth as he really could prove to be something special given a bit more time to fully develop his game - move Morrison to 2nd row and Howarth at Loose for me.
Personal choices I know but I think I'd rather see Morton given a wing berth than Johnson unless someone can help him work on his defence.

With a good off season Hickey may well surprise a few, he is a quality player he just needs some serious conditioning work.

Would Thomas be worth a punt for you guys? He is a pretty accomplished player, would really provide strength and competition in all the outside back position, is available and also crucially would attract some good column inches in not only the Rugby League press but the wider Nationals given the film project etc. Could be a very shrewd acquisition in my opinion for a club looking to muscle in on the promotional wagon.

I also still think Pryce could do a decent job for you guys in the short term.

No

What has happened to Paul King?
Is he injured, still with us?

Henderson and Tadulala should imo be nowhere near next years squad if we truly want to move on to better things. Griffin also needs a major uplift in form to be worth a new deal. If he is injured for the rest of the season then based on recent form he should be released.

Don't get the problem with Semi I really don't.

Easily the best winger we have and has shown up really well even on Sunday. No issue at all with Semi stopping if the new coach thinks he needs a bit more experience and strength. Offers far more than Fox (who look to have lost his greatest asset his pace) or Griffin both of whom are lightweight by comparison.

As for Hendo, for me he is an OK player but he is in a position where we are not short of players and no fault of his he is IMHO holding back younger players.
