Good luck to him, I don't think we've seen the best of him yet but if he gets a really solid pre-season in, maybe he can push for a place in the starting team. I just hope we haven't paid over the odds to retain him. I want to see us tie up McDonnell to a longer contract as a priority, I'd be really happy if we got him on a 2-4 year deal. |

Should have been either Bentley or Donno, not both. He really needs to recapture the form he showed at Saints if he wants to be a regular starter for us, otherwise we have better options. |

I imagine Donno is not on much money, and he's a good influence to have around the place. I actually think he still has more positive impact on games and is more tight and disciplined than Bentley but that's just me. Part of my concern about this is whether he's on a decent wedge and that leave us less money to recruit a more valuable player into the side, when we're desperate for quality. Also if he gets picked ahead of Gannon and McDonnell, who I think we should retain as real core players, I don't want their heads getting turned like happened with Walters. Bentley is a good scrappy player and young enough to get better still but I just don't think he's as good as probably three other back rowers we already have. Basically I know he has fans on here but I think the lad is overrated from what I've seen so far. Admittedly he hasn't shown us his best yet due to bans, form and injury. |

Whilst it can be probably be said about the bill of the squad, the run in to last years GF Bentley was outstanding. That semi away at Wigan in particular. He’ll always be guaranteed to put in a decent tackling stint. If he could develop a bit of attacking nuance then he could be an excellent player for the next two years. Time will tell! |

Poor resigning, cant ever recall a player with so many deficiencys to his game, get rated like he does because of one positive trait, workrate. Should be 4th/5th choice second row, hopefully getting paid like one |

Resigning Donaldson was a stupid decision. But having him here full stop was a stupid decision to begin with. Bentley I'm torn on. It was very similar to Sutcliffe. Had Bentley left would I be bothered? Not so much. Bentley signs a new deal. Am I bothered? Not so much |

You're wrong with Donaldson. |
