DISA the more of your ramblings I read I'm convinced you are a troll, we have produced 2 GB halfbacks from the academy who have won us 3 GF's and this is a stupid position to be in? Did you comment on letting Tansey go?
They are 2 of the best half backs in the country and IMO commitment has never been an issue with either so when they do have a bad patch just be careful of your knee jerking and let them ride it out.
We have Webb and Sinfield as back up, possibly the strongest back up halfs in the league.
What did Saints do against us in the cup when Long was injured......they played a second row at half back!

The more I see of your ramblings, I think you are kn0b, so Touche.
Now you highlight stupidity by saying Webb is possibly the strongest possible back up in the league.

| Quote ="finglas"I don't see them as being untouchable. Sinfield has shown this season that he is capable of playing there having played 7 games out of a possible 25 covering for Burrow/McGuire not being available, winning 5 and losing 2. On that basis I don't think that either player is untouchable as McClennan has good options if he feels the need.'"
But Sinfield was only there because one was out injured.
He is not competing with either player for the position. That is where I see an issue. If we had a youngster at a more advanced stage and pressing it would not be a problem. Like Saints had with Eastmond and Wheelr this year. But we have nobody.
The one player who played preseason is now been released, on top of as you pointed out Tansey.
I dont like to see any player in any position now been challenged. Burrow and McGuire are not been challenged.

Sorry just my opinion, who are the stronger back up halfs?

| I can't think of any top established half backs being challenged in any SL team and Leeds are no different.
Eastmond would come closest to that position but if Long's face wasn't mashed Eastmond wouldn't be getting a look in as the starting half back.

Last years Grand Final proved that. Long came straight back into the side once he was anywhere near fit.

I thought the general rule was that all players are "challenged" every week by the opposition anyway and especially other players in their position for rep honours.
Eastmond at Saints is not a fair comparison because Burrow is not 33 and heading to a different club, if Eastmond was 6 years older would he still be at Saints now?

If McClennan feels either is not performing to the required standard, he can easily drop them and bring Sinfield in to replace them. Sinfield can cover to a better standard than virtually all backup halfbacks in SL. Therefore they are challenged. He has proved he is up to it in more than a quarter of the games this season.
If Leeds had a backup halfback as you require, Im not sure he would be better than Sinfield at covering the halves and therefore IMO wouldn't get a look in if either halfback was dropped because he wasn't performing.
