I understand the frustration when you look at our signings vs releases/ other top teams and their signings.

I hoped we would sign a prop with a proven rep to trouble defences and hit hard.

I think what we have now,is it. I think we will be in the top 6 and play offs again. The season after is make kr break when it comes to the " when will the rebuild finish" discussions

Does anyone know when Tom Holroyd might be recovered from injury?

Looking positively we have Sangare and maybe Holroyd to come into the side next year, and should give us more punch up front.

We have gone for a few project signings and we’ll need a much better year with injuries. We could have much more room to sign in 2024 when a boat load of cap should come up.

Hardaker been great this year but personally not too gutted he’s going because his best years are behind him and there is always that spectre of “when’s the next scandal”…

so get rid of sutty and hardaker which leaves us with one talented but injury prone centre.....

and next to no cap space

Walker has left so we have cap space,Hardhaker turned down his deal.I still expect Macdonald to sign then i presume business will then be done.

We definitely look a centre shy, but we do have a couple of prospects in Edwards and Simpson. We know we're not signing Leutele at least.

We have significant cap space and a quota spot according to Shaw. And reading what GH says we’ve plenty to play with to bring in someone decent.

I'd like to know both the same for Holroyd and Newman. If they are fit, properly fit, for the start of the season it's the equivalent of two new signings. Big if though.

Of the signings Sangere, Olpherts straight into first 17-19 squad probably mconnel too. Hooley, warren not far off and will compete/push for first 17 or at least step in when required. Ruane and Roberts look more project and look mire like loan out for a season.
Assuming we get Mcdonald think we look well for next season.

I’ve been told that Leeds are trying for a double swoop of Sam Lisone for the mens and Georgia Hale (his wife) for the Women.

Which would mean no MacDonald?
