| So that's Boothroyd and Bain both deemed not good enough for SL. Right decision though imho.

I think at 20 in his first open age season Boothroyd went well. He’s a player I believe after a season or two in the championship could definitely step up into SL. I think had it not been for the injury he may have had a chance to be this season.

Boothroyd scored a brace of nice tries against Goole last night, and looked sharp.

As I understood it there was no quota spot for Boothroyd?
How do you know Bain is leaving because he's 'deemed not good enough?'
I don't know how either could judged good enough for SL or not, on the playing time they had!

| Ellis said it just wasn't the right time for Boothroyd with what we had in the team but they liked him and would like to bring him back one day.

Not surprised at that and he may be an option in a year or two. He didn’t put a foot wrong and looked in very good shape for a young second row.
I think he will go very well at Fev and if he has a full year there I can see him getting picked up for a SL club, if not us.

| For a start Bain wasn’t a prop, not sure where that idea has come from.
I quite liked him and it may well of been his choice to leave.
That said he was always vulnerable to me. He didn’t play enough games due mainly to injury last year to cement a place. He was also a bit of an all rounder and I honestly couldn’t see the development in him, certainly not enough to take quota spot. When compared to Uele, Vagana and Nikotemo. You can find plenty of Bain type players domestically. I did actually say this when we signed him. I still wish him all the best.

I was surprised that we kept him initially with the step up to SL, as he was steady though solid in the championship. We need an out and out front rower in my opinion. Whether that be from SL or NRL, as long as they add quality and justify the quota spot then happy days. Matthew Lodge type of calibre would be nice.

He played prop most of his appearances last season but he’s more of a middle. Looked more of a 13 for me and that’s where I saw him this season.
I will say I expected he would be the one to make way if a quota spot was required. He was solid for us though and wish him well.
I’d be happy with a second row, prop or 13. We’re pretty stacked everywhere else.

I know he played there but he wasn’t imo a prop. Got by at that level, but had he stayed I think he would’ve needed to make the 13 spot his own.

Think he signed a 2 year deal and that was revisited last week

| Definately a 13 for me.
If I'm honest, a better option than Cozza, and will this be Pitts last season.
For me, I'd rather we look at this, rather than who we may just get from Salford

I agree. But that's for next season not this one.
MacDonald would be for now as would a prop.
