For mine 1 quota spot has to be used on a prop in 2010.

we will lose Bailey, Smith, Phelps maybe Carmont at the end of 09. A prop and a centre both top class should be atainable in my opinion.

Lynch would be 30 but we could still get three quality seasons out of him. Not only that but he's a good player who wouldn't take up a valuable quota spot. You can’t put a price on a good British prop like Morley or Peacock and I think Lynch would be more than capable of fulfilling this role for us.

He'd be my top target for next season with a top class Aussie centre coming a close 2nd.

I really do think that this would be all we needed as well. Our good youngsters would be a year older and wiser and would fill any other backup spots we needed.

Agree, and I think we'll also look for a top class number 6.

Me to.

Lynch is a class above Andy Coley and has at least a good 2-3 seasons left in him. He would be right near the top of my priority list.

We need a 6, A prop & a centre for next year.

I've heard Luke Burgress mentioned a couple of times, although I have no clue what his contract status is like @ Leeds.

Probably just another bullsh*t rumour then.

But Lynch will be 30 years old this year. Do we want to replace a 29 year old (Coley) with a 30year old?

I'd find Ste Breheny a pair of boots for next season if it meant getting rid of Coley.

Have to say, I wouldn't mind Luke Burgess in our side. IMO he has alot of potential, but I fail to see why he would leave Leeds.

I think we also need a new fullback. I believe Karmichael Hunt (sp) is off contract and he could certainly do a good job for us. Mathers is a waste of space.

Also the whole Tim Smith will he wont he will be apparent come the end of the season. It is most likely he will leave will Sam Tomkins be ready? Depends how many games he gets to play this season.

I would like to hope Mossop will be given game time to allow him to take Phil Baileys place but this wont happen.
