He probably is but I don't think Saints are to worried about replacing him, they don't seem short of youngsters themselves.
The fun will start this time next years, lets hope we have a really great season  |

Saints are very much interested in Murphy. Though last I heard Wakefield weren’t willing to entertain the possibility of a transfer fee.
Bennison is very good but there’s debate on whether he’s a fullback or a winger, and seen more as Makinsons long term replacement if he is to be a winger. Outside that we have Sambou who was injured all of last year so not really viable to take the 5 shirt, and Gilford who Murphy put 4 past and is still eligible for the 19s.
We are really excellent at producing academy spine players (Bennison, Welsby, Dodd, Pemberton and Knowles in the last couple of years) and props (Thompson, Lees, Delaney is the next one) but seem to struggle much more with outside backs.

Like the look of Kyle Laybutt (PNG) who’s without an NRL club. Looks dangerous with ball in hand and great kicking game. Not bad defensively either for a half. know it’s highly unlikely with us signing MS but be a good pick up..

There isn’t a chance Trinity will sell him but his contract is up end of next season. Then of course it’s a buyers market and there is nothing we can do.
A huge amount depends on where Trinity are at the end of the season. |

Not quite Vasty players are free to negotiate in May so it's a tricky one. |

He needs a new contract at start if season. If they let it drift he'll have too many offers to refuse. |

I also think his age counts .. we weren’t interested in Senior because despite being out of contract he would have commanded a transfer fee… think they same applies to Murphy… |

I agree I thought he was very good and looked like a cracking utility player. Capable of playing in the halves, 13 and centre.
His defence was outstanding.
My only issue with him was he seemed reluctant to take it to the teeth of the defence yesterday so not sure he is a natural half. |

Doesn’t need to be imho. We have two of those in Lino and Smith. We just need adequate back up if one gets injured. At the moment the only back up is Gaskell. |

I thought he was outstanding in this game … I’ve never seen him play to anything like that standard before |

Strange I thought travel was an issue over to Wigan for him so going to Leigh would be deja vu. Thought he wanted to play for a club West Yorkshire area? |

See that's what worries me bout these WC stand outs. Sport is littered with one hit wonders, who put in a string of notable performances in a knockout comp and never replicate it again. I think you have to look at a players as a whole and wonder why he hasn't [layed like that before. |
