Made a real difference when he came over and glad he appears to be leaving on good terms.I take it we now have an extra quota space for next season?

All the best at York Adam and thank you for everything.

Yes, we have two for next season now

Has given good service but this a the right decision.

Two big Tongan/Samoan/NZ powerhouse forwards please

Hopefully, they'd be better than the ines Hull and Huddersfield signed this season. They've been awful.

Echo the comments of others, i’ve Really enjoyed watching Cuthbertson play, fantastic in a top side in 2015. Thought very good at times in 2017 and critical in games v cas and Catalan last year that in effect kept us up.

Wish him all the best.

Regarding who we get in, key for me will be - do these new rules about six again and no scrums still apply next year ? If so buying big diesel forwards like some of the hull ones and ava is no longer the way to go IMO. You will always need some size but these rules favour more mobile, durable guys with good engines .

That’s why Wigan signing singo makes sense to me.

I’m sure Catalan will beat us by plenty but I think they have some issues with these new rules, casty and Moa look like they are struggling to me, I also reckon that Micky Mac can’t do it every week. He will probably be able to raise for big games.

Cuthbertson played his final game for Leeds in the CC Final after suffering a fractured shoulder, Richard Agar says in his press conference.

Watkins with a dirty shoulder charge.

Big loss that. Does any oher club have four players out for the season?
Even more incredible that we won the CC, which actually seems a more meaningful trophy this year, considering how SL fixtures gone, and final moved away from OT

No idea but we have loaned in 3.Trying to think who the four is unless you are counting Crosby who hasnt played for 18 months.On the plus side hopefully gives more opportunities for some those who are generally outside the 17.

Wish Cuthbo all the best. Not a bad last game to have!

In terms of injuries, to be honest the big miss is only Newman for me, and even then we've covered the centres well so far. Anyone heard of progress with Newman? All went very quiet.

Newman out till middle of next year.
A fully fit Cuthbo and Ward would have been big peirce for this team too.
We are coping admirably

I’m not sure that will happen, but I wouldn’t be suprised with one English and one overseas player coming in.

And Jason Robinson to come from retirement and sign...

Do we need two when we have so many up and coming young players.

I'd have liked a decent look at greenwood,theres a really good player in there somewhere.Not sure that position will be s priority now though.

A very good question. It’s all about balance and it always has been. I’d retain Bodene for another year and I’d bring a couple in of the righty quality and experience to compliment our excellent young kids. Obviously care needed not to block their path

I really don’t think our back row needs anything, we have some decent quality and cover there with more coming through.

With Leeming and Dwyer at hooker, O’Connor and Parsons maybe in the wings, again think we’re good.

Prop is where we need more quality and consistency. Mik and Holroyd are not matured yet; Ava is quality but add in one more first grade starter quality prop and we will cause the opposition problems.

Halves are OK. We don’t have great depth there but Gale has 7 locked down. If we got a boom 6 become available I could be tempted, but Lui is good.

Centres again no need: Hurrell. Newman. A Sutcliffe, Broadbent, Hall, some others coming through. L Sutcliffe if he stays.

Wings and FB are also well covered with talent coming through.

The only position I think we need another signing is prop; after then it’s a case of allowing the side to mature and signing to fill gaps here and there.

The side is looking well balanced to me now. Lacks some outright star quality but I think several of our young players have international potential.

Not sure i can agree on that one

That would be three which is for mine far too many.I would only be looking at bringing a prop in.

Completely agree.

Thanks Cuthbo , at your best and when your team mates were switched on you have been excellent , if you were ever mediocre you never hid or stopped trying . I am sure you will be back at Rhinos in some capacity in the future .

A prop & a HB for me unless we go with Walker at FB Myler/Gsle & Mclellend.
Lui for me just isnt the quality we need not consistent enough.

It's hard to tell with Lui half the time whether or not he's fit. When on form and fit I think he's great at working that right hand side, and in combination with Gale on the left gives us credible threat right across the park and at speed. That makes us very dangerous if our pack is dominant, hence why I think prop is where it's at first.

I wouldn't sign a 6 to replace Lui unless it was a world class player, and those don't come cheap. I don't know who the next off the production line at the club is here after McLelland, I've seen a bit of Anderson but I'm not sure we have the next Danny Mags hiding somewhere.

I really don't like Myler in the halves, he's had his chance there for me - I know our middles were struggling at times but that doesn't excuse his terrible kicking game. I much prefer him chiming into the line from FB and using his undoubted ability to read the game and roam a bit.
