Excluding the youngsters who haven't properly broken through I would categorise the players as follows:
Must keep (would get into almost any side imo):
Shaul (needs to improve a lot but huge potential)
Lineham
Paea
Westerman
Thompson
Must go:
Yeaman
Paleaasina
Whiting
Howarth
Michaels
Then you've got a mix of guys like Ellis, Minichiello and Pryce, who can still do a good job but aren't worth another contract due mainly to their age. Guys for whom the jury is still out, ie, Sneyd, Cunningham, Hadley. And then guys who are solid Superleague standard players, but won't ever amount to more than that such as Houghton and Watts.
It's not a title winning squad in a million years, but it's really not a terrible one either. They should be comfortably making the top 8.

i largely agree with your lists but think with the right coach watts and sneyd could become much better players so i would retain them as well. similarly if we had a decent coach crooks would still be around playing some good stuff too.

I'll put my neck on the block, too. Not actually too dissimilar to you.
Keep:
Shaul
Lineham
Paea
Get rid:
Sa
Yeaman
Paleaaesina
Green/Bowden (I'd keep one but not both, personally I'd lean towards keeping Bowden and ditching Green)
Michaels
Rankin
Howarth
As you say, the rest are a mix of those worth playing out their contracts but not renewing, some who need to prove they're worth keeping, and the solid but unspectacular that every squad needs, but we tend to have in too much abundance.
What's concerning now that I've listed it out (and I made a similar point on another thread) is how many of those I'd outright write off are recent signings of the current coaching set-up. It just shows that we're still not getting it right.

Cant argue with the must goes, everyone knows my view on michaels, and i said when we signed him, he was bang average and a waste of a quota spot, feka, isnt good enough, his minutes on the pitch border on the ridiculous....whiting, too slow, injury prone....yeaman, way past his best, a dinosaur of a centre. ... howarth, total waste of what money hes earning, shocking signing, not sl quality. .

Does anyone know if there is anything in the rumours that Leeds have agreed a fee and five year deal with Danny Houghton? Not sure what I think of them.

Hearing that Houghton will be gone at the end of the year. Hearing he doesn't get on with quite a few of the players and it's disrupting the dressing room

I'd be disappointed as I still think he has a lot to offer if used correctly, plus I'm not sure I trust the club to find a better replacement.

Houghtons a funny one from an outsider. He is a constant thorn in the Derby games yet a lot of your fans bag him. Can't pass, too slow at the PTB.

He runs his blood to water but as he tires he makes mistakes as does any player who plays big minutes, when they should be rolled. |
