[quote="Gotcha"]. As I said on the thread the other week, McShane for me is just like Dean Lawford, all the potential and ability to do it, but just can't seem to manage it on the pitch. Somebody who can harness that talent will have a good player

I think at Mcshane's age if he can physically do it he should be doing it now. He is fully developed physically so he ain't gonna get any faster, he ain't gonna get any stronger and he ain't gonna gain any greater dexterity than he currently has. If they don't like the physical makeup of the player they should get rid now, he isn't going to change to any great extent. If they don't like his decision making, teamplay, composure or anything other than his physical attributes then surely only coaching and gametime can remedy that. I would have thought it's a "catch 22" situation in that respect, no gametime= no experience= no improvement. It's the biggest mystery to Leeds fans why he hasn't kicked on/is out of favour when he has been tipped by so many to be a future star.

I'd be surprised if Leeds let him go before our involvement in the CC ends one way or another. It's possible we could end up playing Hudds in the final without having Lunt available. If we let McShane go and Burrow got injured, we'd be up the proverbial creek.

Not sure McShane would be motivated enough knowing he was only there as insurance cover against the loss of Lunt and Burrow.

Let him go I say. We do have Hood....and we also know Sinfield can slot in there.

DO we actually know Lunt can't play against Hudds, or are we just speculating?

He can't play against Hudds according to the YEP.

I think McShane should move on for his and Leeds sake.

I think this is the best solution for both parties involved.

Never been the biggest fan of McShane.......decent squad player but never convinced during his sporadic runs in the team that he is the long term answer at hooker.
