I will probably get slated for this but I much prefer Parcell as starting hooker, let Dwyer come on in the later stages, not sure he knows what he is going to do next so how the hell are our halves supposed to ??? Player of the season so far Warrington got rid for a reason

Re: Who Would you keep : Sun May 12, 2019 4:47 pm  

Dwyer stands out at times because most the rest are so poor. I'm not knocking the lad because he is at least having a dig when others clearly aren't but long term he is not the starting hooker of a team looking for the top end of the table.good impact player

Wakefield fan in peace.

If I can add something, when recruiting players, a leader is needed in my opinion.
Clearly a good coach will make a difference but Leeds look rudderless to me.
It doesn't have to be a young guy for the future, just someone who can lead the team until the recruitment is sorted.
Non of the senior players have the leadership side of the game so it needs to be brought in.

It would be impossible to get rid of everyone who needs to go

Hanley and Briscoe are not great wingers
Hurrell is decent but Makes lots of errors wouldn’t be upset if he left with the money he is on is freed up
Lolohia needs sacking
Myler crap
Sutcliffe crap as half or back row
Singleton Crosby Albert, cuthbertson need to go
Ablett, JJB, Ferres, all poor
Cam smith is popular on here but he’s been poor whenever he gets a chance
Merrin again a plodder but decent again wouldn’t be too bothered if he left

To be fair to some of the younger players like Cameron Smith (and Walker), they are supposed to be learning to get better, from playing regularly and alongside more experienced players. Instead they are being sucked into the mire of mediocrity by us having basically half a team of duffers and no halfbacks.

I think this year we've been so terrible that we need to be imaginative in terms of the squad going forward. If cleaning the place out means having some of our cap spent on players on loan elsewhere sobeit. The bad influences have to be got rid of regardless of cost, and the utterly useless as well. Get them away from the club and focus on the juniors. That means accepting that next season will again be a struggle, but if its a struggle where our juniors are getting experience and actually competing then it will be better in the long run than another season of this garbage.

Over the last couple of seasons several players consistently fail. What’s bewildering is the fact that they are still played on a regular basis. Presumably the coaching staff believe in miracles ,because I can’t see any evidence or prospect of things changing .

Pure speculation, but if were relegated and all contracts are voided I'd only look at trying to retain Walker, Newman, Oledski, Holroyd, Trout and Johnson. The rest can do one.

You will probably find those are the ones though that the other clubs want.

That's why I said try

Hurrell would be great value if you paid for RL players by the kilo. Needs a rocket up his @r$e and many, many salads.
