Kershaw is young and still learning he will only improve with more game time.'"
Is Kaye quick? From what I've seen of him over the past few seasons we have several players in the squad that are more likely to be able to sprint the length of the field and not get caught....
BJB is a real quality winger whose running style makes him deceptively quick...he's worth another 2 year SL contract at the right price...move Kaye onto the Championship along with Gigot...Kershaw is a good back up for BJB.

Kaye is extremely quick, not sure who you reckon could catch him, TJ and Hampshire, that’s about it.
What he hasn’t got imo is BJB’s balance which you elude too. Kaye can’t create his own tries he needs others to do that, he’s a finisher in the true sense. Nothing wrong with that, most wingers are like that, we’ve just been a bit spoilt.
If the ball gets to him with a bit of space he will score and he will rarely bomb, he’ll do fine.

| We all see different things so I'll have to disagree....
BJB is class and has scored lots of long range tries in Super League...the other has spent most of his career in the lower leagues.
If BJB is not re signed by Trinity due to the finances then I hope Kay proves me wrong and scores lots of tries and stays fit for the next two seasons as he's signed for Trinity for 2021 and 2022.....

We aren't disagreeing. BJB is without doubt the better winger, I thought I’d made that point. What I’m saying is Kaye will do a job and as such shouldn’t be underrated.
Most teams go through phases, for a few years our threat has come from the wings due to having two excepts players in that position. Now it will possibly change and be more driven by say Lino’s creativity or an aggressive pack , who knows, nothing last forever.
We were lucky to get BJB but the chances of replacing him like for like are virtually nil. So the king is possibly dead, so long live the king as they say.

| I can't see Ben retiring with the world cup next year.
Certainly more than capable for another year, hopefully we get a deal done.

| BJB would a massive loss, I hope this is not true
This season has being a nightmare for us and his return was one of the catalysts to us turning it around
He’s a brilliant all round winger, fast, excellent in the air, strong finisher, very strong under a bomb, defensively reads the game as good as anyone we’ve ever had at Wakey, I can’t think of a single mistake he’s made (not to say he hasn’t mind as that would be near impossible)
He’s also very experienced
Defo not some one that can easily be replaced

You’re right pal
There were two games this year all be it I can’t think who against where Kaye had the chance with an open line to show how fast he was but he looked v slow
Might have being sts where he was caught from behind by a back row / prop
Also Agree with everything in your last paragraph plus to add to it I’m not sure how confident he is under a bomb
All said if Kaye ends up being a starting winger for us I’ll back him like I would do any other Wakey player

I too noticed that, he was caught by a supposedly slower player.
Yet only month earlier I saw him ripping it up for Toronto. So what are you suggesting, he’s suddenly lost the use of his legs?
He wasn’t the only player being easily brought down in those games now was he. Whatever was wrong with us in those games it wasn’t just him.
My only concern is that Kaye didn’t feature at all towards the end. He may have been injured I don’t know.
What I did note was not any lack of pace but a lot of points shifted down his side, however as is the case with wingers it’s not always easy to spot who’s at fault.
Kaye was an opportunity signing for me, with Bush still out and an impressive record and an ex Academy product we had to sign him.
Whether he’s the answer I don’t know but let’s be realistic, neither is BJB at 32, that’s old for a wingman. Personally wouldn’t be surprised if he eventually gets another year, we’ve been through this dance before.

| Well I would be extremely disappointed if BJB went to Leigh while we are left with Kaye.

| Leigh are in for a number of players and I see no reason why they would not be interested in BJB.
Its not been announced its just a possibility.
The refferance with Kays because he used to play for Leigh.
Maybe they could be interested in Kaye.

| A shame if BJB goes, still a classy winger and was looking like his old self again at the end of the season. Kay and Kershaw are ok but not as good as him, the team will be worse off for him not being in it. Kay had a bad ankle injury a couple of years back and it seems to have taken the edge off his pace. He’s not slow but he doesn’t seem as sharp as he one was.

| Could see him in the CHAMPIONSHIP excluding maybe 2-3 sides, would be an excellent signing for Dewsbury linking up with FINN or perhaps Bradford with KEAR, ENGLAND and BROUGH.

Hopefully kaye will work out
As with all our players I want them to do well for us
However regardless of how many incredibly long posts you type........
Kaye isn’t a fast winger
