Begs the question of whether Myler will get a game in first grade next year but we’ll see. I don’t mind him as FB cover.

The only thing I am fairly sure about is a top half table finish next year for Leeds. Anyone’s guess beyond that.

Think Sinfield is ahead of Myler in the halves. That said, Myler should play quite regularly. If Miller is out he'll be full back. If Croft or Frawley are out, Miller goes to the halves and he's at one. Only if all the Aussies are out would he partner Sinfield at seven, with Edgell filling in at full back. That's what I'd do anyway.

I think you’re right, will be interested with a full pre-season whether Edgell or Lumb might push past Myler for first choice reserve but he is the best candidate right now.

I’m still wondering about our pack and whether we can compete down the middle with the top sides. Still thinking there will be one or two additional departures and maybe one or two more incoming yet.

Myler has been consistently good for us in recent years, especially at full back. There's not many clubs who can carry that sort of quality of cover for their spine. I'm sure he'll see a decent amount of game time.






Let all the doubters keep doubting and those who believe keep believing.

We’re only interested in those in the bubble. Anyone who wants to come in the bubble, you can come in.

But you’ve got to keep believing.

Shouldn't Roberts be in line for a wing spot rather than moving Miller there (which would be an utter waste of his strengths)? Or is Roberts only backup for centre?

Push comes to shove I'd move Martin to centre and Momirovski to the wing. Leave Miller where he can really make a difference.

I'd rather play as few players out of position as possible. Why sign a class centre and move them to the wing?

Because he's a good winger too. I'd play him there before Miller, and probably (if Olpherts goes) before throwing a young lad in there.

Agree but I think Martin also needs a run at second row this year… much depends on how fit Simpson is after his injury and we have Roberts too, if Mom needs to move to wing. We actually have a few options. Then again with one of Bentley or McDonnell not even likely to make bench the temptation might be as you say.

I just feel the whole team needs a really really strong pre-season this year; we need +10% from all the young lads developing and some of our seniors rested and fit and back to form too.

I just think its lunacy to move multiple players when one gets injured - by the way I'm not talking about during a game, that's needs must. We need squad players who can fill in as required. Moving Miller or Momirovski and Martin if one winger gets injured is the sort of thing that quickly ends up with the whole team in a mess as it knocks on elsewhere. Not to mention diluting the ability of the likes of Miller to influence a game. Far better train Roberts, Edgell up to play on the wing if needed.

Olpherts will be first choice wing and possibly even centre cover. I know staff haven’t written him off like fans have….
May move though if offered first choice rugby…which would worth out both ways too as he’s a reasonable earner….!
