Agree. He is one of our better performers week in week out. Sadly, that says a lot about the genuine dearth of quality at the club. He wouldn't be picked as a full back at Saints, Wigan, Wire or Catalans and he'd be nowhere near the halves.

Hes reliable and the best option we have but that's it.

He is one of our few attacking threats but only from Full Back

The heart and brain are there fir the most part. Just age catching up with him and tbh we need top class in the majority of spine positions.
O'C and Smith are doing well and time is on their side.
Austin and Sezar have been poor ,a few halves aside.
Myler has done well enough at FB.

That's still a poor spine compared to the top 3-4 teams

Myler is the best of the 1,6 7 at full back, but has flaws in some parts of his game compared to the best. His passing is excellent but running out of defence is weak and he's not a great defender. Austin can be very good, but just as often not, and Sezer could be good but just seems to only have a crack every now and then. Its hard to imagine a less inspiring set actually. Not one of them is a player I'd go out of my way to watch.

Just how I see it too, if they didn’t already play for Leeds, we wouldn’t be looking to sign them.

If you're totally honest out of our whole playing squad who is International standard? If you compare this with past teams it's not great and pretty much sums up where we are.

You could put up a decent argument for no one!

Don't think I'd take anybody from this current squad and put them in the first 17 from 10 years ago, and we were already on the decline at that point.

Where we are now is due to a doomed strategy of allowing good players to leave, and replacing them with worse ones (or not replacing them at all).

If you replace when you are at the top not only can you offer them a happier team to join, but also prize money isn't on the cap, so you can pay the same, or less then your rivals and still be competitive with the money you offer.
