I'm not really into 'fantasy' Rugby League - my squad has 8 academy players, 3 overseas players (with room for 2 more) and the rest are club trained/exempt.
I would keep about three quarters of the players
I think the squad has too many forwards and too few backs, so I would be looking to alter the balance a bit.
KeepCraig Gower - a great player who is fundamental to our performances
Chris Bailey - a forward who is exceptional in defense and has quality attack/ball handling skills
Antonio Kaufusi - the big man is great, but tires quickly, how can we address this and keep him on the field?
Liam Colbon - playing reasonably well and worth keeping if he can remain relatively injury free
Matt Cook - one of our best players able to play a wide range of positions
Chris Melling - can play in any position and has a lot of heart
Tommy Lee - very good, hard working and talented hooker
Alex Hurst - a fair player who will become a good player if her can keep the error count down
Luke Dorn - on his day a brilliant player, would clearly benefit from being in a better team
Mark Bryant - hard working and quality performer
Shane Grady - decent player who makes a lot of effort, needs to keep working hard to secure a regular place
Kieran Dixon - a top class attacking winger, needs to work on his defence, but our best outside back
Dan Sarginson - needs to work harder on his physique and tackling but potentially a great talent
Tony Clubb - should be the captain after Gower retires, he is a tremendous character and top player
Erjon Dollapi - looks like he has a bit of character, no reason he won't make it
Mike McMeeken - decent player, has size and strength, needs a bit more development
Will Lovell - very good player, our best young forward
Michael Channing - has a lot of heart and vastly improved since last season
James Woodburn-Hall - looked a promising scrum half in his single appearance to date
Worth keeping if on top form: Scott Wheeldon - probably needs regular games, has struggled coming in and out of the side
Michael Witt - playing well at moment, I don't realistically see us finding better than him for the club
Release:David Howell - hardly ever available and in poor form, replace with a new Centre
Chad Randall - hard working and could go into second row, but offers too little at Hooker
Michael Robertson - a solid player but lacks speed and misses a lot of games
Shane Rodney - plays well, but would sacrifice a purely defensive second rower for a creative type or huge Prop
Jamie O'Callaghan - not Super League standard and has had far too many opportunities already
Olsi Krasniqi - hard working but not big enough to make an impact yet comes on an impact player
