Who does everyone think we still need to tie up for next year. Personally I cannot make my mind down up about Williams and Allgood. Williams shows some nice touches but is not consistent and I don't think we have seen enough of Allgood. Not sure who else is still not signed up for next season

Keegan Hirst.

Would agree with Hirst.

With Millers injury, Williams has to step up.

I think this could be a crucial few weeks for Williams and his long term future.

I'm sure I read it on here Keegan Hirst has an option for next season.

Hirst definitely.

How great is it that were only just past the half way point of the season and we've only got a few players left off contract!!!

Hirst definitely, a future captain there.
Williams has been a bit underrated and he can certainly spot a gap and find a pass in the opposition 20.
Allgood, I'm less sure about and tbf, we've managed without him all season but, the guy might play a storm when he gets back to fitness.
This season, EVERY player has played their part and we have been a "proper" team, with the end result being "greater than the sum of the parts".
It's all about continuity and if we can bring on Jowitt, Johnstone, Crowther and Batch, plus a couple of the other youngsters, things look really positive.

Batchelor has 5 years

Two priorities for me are

Keegan Hirst
Jordan crowther

I'm unsure on williams atm but he's starting to show us what he can do so he's one to watch over the coming weeks. Depends on how ready Chester thinks ackroyd will be next year too to some extent.

You are right, he has.

Doesn't like ok like he's taken it yet. Would be looking to get that over the line. Be good to keep majority of this pack together.

I dare say (on body language alone) it looks like he'd want to stay. In recent games you can see he is first to applaud the crowd and he seems to play with a smile on his face. He really seems to enjoy his time with us and being part of the group.

Of course money talks, however with other factors such as fit and the people you work with I think Hirst is really enjoying time with the club that gave him a crack at Super League.

100% hirst, I've being so impressed with him

I don't see the need for allgood, he's being ok but we have better British cover for prop
Plus frees up an Aussie birth which we will be needed for rotating wood at hooker ( if we go down the Aussie route)

Speaking of wood, he has well impressed me,
Any one know how long his contract is?

The williams situation I'm still not sure on, I know the guy has talent from watching him in aus last year, he has a big opportunity to cement a first team place over the next rounds while miller is out

I would be more inclined to give Max Jowitt a long term deal over Sam Williams...In my opinion Max will develop into a more than adequate HB.

I think a lot of folk are thinking this. Max is one of our own & should be prioritised & even now would add something to an already blossoming team, wherever he ends up playing.
