I think Oledski will benefit from a closed season this year. Very excited still about Holroyd and again I expect him to make some impact in the first team next year.
We really could do with a full season out of Ward.
I'd like to see at least one more quality forward added for 2020, and I think we have to with some of the salary cap shifting (Ferres, JJB, possibly others).
I like our centres and Broadbent is a good prospect coming through too.
Walker again will benefit from another off season to work on his size and speed a bit more.
I'm willing to give the wingers another year unless a bolter becomes available. Newman needs to develop his passing game to create opportunities for his winger; two good halves will create more for the entire back line.

Parcell had a season to go on his deal so him going could be to free up the quota for a quality overseas for next season which makes sense. Of course if someone of quality is lined up for now great but Lunt can do at least a similar job to the 2019 version of Parcell so no dramas imo on that front.

No dramas???!? Have you not read this forum?!!?

This forum was full of dramas even when we were winning everything going

And some for the right reasons as we have seen since

Well, quite, just the way it is on a fans forum




Anyway I wish they'd just announce this move then we can all get on with the moaning

Yes when Garbutt went he said we want players on the field not sat in the stand ,and those 3 say no more . However let's see how this latest rebuilding materialize

Well we know this is JJB’s last time around the track.

Ablett was unpredictable with complications from operations, I don’t think anyone could have predicted that.

Crosby I honestly have no clue about; but also not sure how much dosh he’ll be on so guess will either be gone after this year or back fit as a squad prop for 2020.

Albert I’m guessing is on very little salary, and again will be gone for 2020 if he’s not earned a spot in the side.

Donaldson has been OK as a rotation back row. Better in defence than most other players we have and always gives 100%.

Let’s judge KS on the shape we’re in for 2020, assuming we do stay up. There is only so much he can do and he is taking action. For every player we want to leave mid-contract, there needs to be a suitable destination and the majority of the existing contractual commitments were nothing to do with Sinfield. It really isn’t an easy thing to sort out in reality.

This was announced on twitter then taken down straight away! Hmmmm

And now it’s confirmed, but its a loan deal, Tui is gone the other way as expected

Sorry mis read, loan for this season then a 2 year deal

Lui now announced...Again.

It wasn’t clear in the article I read, Is Tui a loan for this season, or a permanent signing for Salford ? Don’t want to be stuck with him again next season.

Swap deal plus a fee to Salford..Still don’t understand why Leeds would swap Parcell for Lunt?One step forward then another step back..

The way I'm reading this, it's a loan deal for the rest of this season and then permanent contracts from 2020 at the respective clubs.
Both overseas players so straight swap.
Parcell and Lunt is the interesting one, because if that is a loan deal too then I'm not sure where we stand on the overseas quota, unless we can offload Cuthbertson, Peteru or even Merrin at short notice? Obviously lots of cards in motion behind the scenes here as clubs jostle for the run-in here and in Aus.

Lolohea and Lui both on loan until end of season turning into permanent 2 year deals from next season

It’s really simple - quota space!

Plus we do not need two dummy half running hookers, direction is what we need, Lunt offers that

Can loan players play against the teams they are on loan from?

Quota space for who?

Lui's going to be wearing number 40, which reflects the loan status of Tui. I'm guessing the 6 (or 7?) shirt will be Lui's next season.

Who knows, remember Parcell was signed for next season so its not just about this year

That’s upto the 2 teams involved

Whoever may be lined up for now or next season as Parcell is contracted to end of 2020.

Would be nice of the Sezer rumour is true and it is happening now.

In a change to the usual protocol, Leeds have asked to include a clause in Lolohea's Salford contract, insisting that he plays against us

That’s hilarious - am a Wakefield fan but nearly wet myself !

Being serious despite our injury led implosion seems to me you could have best backs in world and with way your packs being playing wouldn’t make much difference. Going to be very tight down bottom at end of year -

Good one I like it

whilst I'm gutted we are losing Rob I can take some comfort from knowing he will be playing alongside Myler

(Rob you do realise just what you've done ) ? whilst your lardy ar*e will have JH to make him look good.
