Lets see what the fans think and who they would like to replace Lee Smith next season.

My opinion I would like one of Michael Shenton or Ryan Atkins due to them being english.. out of the two i feel that Michael is more of an attacking centre than Ryan Atkins, if thats the case I would prefer to have Ryan due to his defensive abilities and think he would gel well into our team.

Your views?

No Coady on the list?

Well any of those really but Lyon is the only right centre on the list.

I think we should realease Smith now, and give Watkins or Gibson a run there.

Watkins IMO.

Got to be Shenton, would be very encouraged if he signed although i'd also be suprised. Atkins just doesn't feed his wing man enough for my liking.

Watkins was really shown up against Manly Sea Eagles. Thankfully Leeds don’t have to come across that kind of opposition week in week out. However he is only 18 and will only improve from here on in and has shown that against super league opposition.

Watkins would be the natural choice.

I put lyon for two reasons.

1. He is class
2. I would prefer Shenton to stay at Cas. the true measure of a competitive SL is that homegrown players stay loyal at their clubs and make them stronger, rather than jump ship to the likes of Leeds as soon as they come in
3. It would really pi$$ saints fan for so long. It would be like the Iestyn to Bulls saga.


4. I can't count

Lets be serious Lyon is not coming to Leeds. I'd prefer to keep faith in Waktins and hope he becomes as good as Smith is

Why not? Saints signed Soliola now for centre havent they?

If possible i'd like to see one of our own step up and take his place.
If that's not the case then if we are to sign atkins then i'd switch keith to the right until coady is ready.
As for overseas signing's i think lyon would only come to saints so if possible i'd target matt cooper at st george.

I agree but maybe Leeds can introduce passing into his game?

Adam Anderson

Watkins has shown signs that he could be as good as, if not better than Shenton/Atkins
