They will always struggle when players who have the role of making yardage early in sets make costly errors. That said, both will turn 33 by the middle of next year. Half backs don't get anymore skillful, less prone to injury, or faster at that age. That would be the key consideration if I were in Rohan’s shoes. It will be very interesting to see how he plays his hand.

Both still look pretty fit to me , and can do another 1-2 years comfortably. Sinfield and possibly a recruit can then hopefully be ready to take over……

Depends what the clubs aspirations are in the next 2 years, if it's winning the GF then I suspect our 6 and 7 partnership arent at that level.

I'd agree. We should be aiming at a player who brings the galvanising effect of a Croft or a Hastings. Not an easy task but if we want to be top dogs we're going to have to make a big signing who delivers.

Having seen both Ruan and Donaldson in a Bulls jersey this season I know for sure who'd I'd rather have.

Donaldson has been head and shoulders better by absolutely miles. Ruan just isn't up to it.

Don’t know why Donaldson gets so much stick. He is fantastic value for money for a second choice squad player. I see no reason to not offer him 1 more year whilst likes of Field Gibbons and some extent Gannon and projects like Warren Ruane develop:

Can we do a swap Bentley Tetavano Fusitua for Chris Mcqueen. Fantastic player and consistent, easily one of the top 5 forwards in Super League.
