What positions do you reckon need strengthening and who do you reckon will join leeds next season??
i reckon we need a , prop and second rower and maybe a young winger

I think we shall see who we give new contract to and who we dont. IMO Donald & Buderus will be leaving. Neither need replacing as we have McShane & Smith.

Danny Brough

I keep hearing rumours of Shenton but more often than not when it comes to Leeds our signings are well under the radar. I think we could do with some cover in the pack and I still worry about our half backs in mags and Burrows if one should get injured. I know Sinfield is covering but should a second get injured we are buggered. I young up and coming half back would be nice that could be moulded for the future and test the established lads for a starting spot. I was gutted we missed out on McNally, but I keep hearing Leeds have looked at him again as he isn't getting his chance at Hudds and is been loaned out yet again.

Aside from that maybe a prop would add to the squad, but it all depends on the funds, we aren't Warrington after all

Doc Murray

I dont think that shenton is coming to us, i have heard his name liked with saints and several other clubs, also heard LMS linked with saints recently too, so dont think either will come to us. I agree it depends on who we retain from those with contracts up for renewal.

A more recent example could have been Michael Withers, seeing as he only played a very minimal ammount after he signed (I'm thinking 6-7)... but touché.

In Sunday Mirror he said hes started talking about a new contract

How long does McShane have left on his contract?

I hope Leeds can retain Buderus if the price is right.

I think we'll offer him a new contract so it's down to what Buderus wants to do really.

Contracted until the end of 2012. It was announced at the same time as Watkins, Jones-Bishop and Allan. Of course Danny Allan has since been released.

Based on his performances while he's been with us he should be outside the 20/20.

20/20, what's that?

I should have the article if you wish to see it.

Talau.

If we keep Buderus and Diskin then McShane should be on a season loan SL deal like BJB is this year

if we release/dont extend people's contracts i would hope we do so because we have better in the academy or we have a signing coming in
if you dont improve the squad then you go backwards

Leeds' improved form has coincided with Buderus' best form in a Leeds shirt.

Read into that what you will.

Yes. Leeds best form last year coincided with him being out of the team.

Read into that what you will.

Personally i reckon that our 17 next season is
1 Webb
2 Smith
3 Delaney
4 Senior/New Signing
5 Hall
6 Sinfield (Been a better side since he moved to this position)
7 Mcguire (plays better at scrum half)
8 Leuluai
9 Burrow
10 Peacock
11 Jones Buchannan
12 Ablett
13 New Signing
14 Diskin
15 Eastwood
16 Bailey
17 Kirke

with a young winger, half back and forward coming in as well
And leaving
Burgess
Buderus
Lauatiiti
Donald
Senior (if he decides to retire)

Ablett would play loose and if you're putting Burrow at hooker you've got him and diskin the wrong way round.

That's the oddest spelling of Buderus I've seen on here in a long tiime.

That our best form could have been even better had he been in the team?

I think you have been influenced by other recent posters here.

We've had Wigan idiots posting about their glory days.

Fear'vfee bumming Wellens on 5 years ago form. (which was still slow)

And now you!



I'm 100% focused on 2010. Current squad members should be judged heavily on what they have done (or not done) in 2010, in the here and now.
