Alot of deals to be done by the sound of it.
Personally I am sick of seeing players come and go. I want stablity for a change. All this chopping and changing.
Leeds have had Webb, McGuire, Burrow and Sinfield in key positions since 2007. They have won 4 of the 5 titles available in that time.
Similar story with Saints and Bradford before that... and then with us in the 90's. Stablity in key positions is crucial.
Even if we could keep Finch and Lima, they would leave a year later anyway, why not lose them now and build for the future?
We have been unlucky to have so many quality players being linked with other clubs over the last few years really. I would have liked to have seen leuluai see out his career here but it just wasn't meant to be.
I want to see us have stablity at
1.
6.
7.
9.
13.
We have 3 of them. We need stable half-backs.
I wouldn't worry about the pack, we have enough players coming through IMO. Prescott and Mossop will get better and better and the back-row is deeper than any others in super league.
A young half-back is a must for me. Leuluai has been doing a job for us since 2007. 6 years of stablity IMO is part of the reason we have become a succesful side. A young half-back to play alongside Finch just for one year while bringing someone else through.... if not we have no option but to bring Sam back to 6. No man is bigger than the team...
