I wonder when we can expect an announcement about the futures of Mags , Burrow and JJB ?

I read something this morning that JJB wants to continue. TBH I'd be happy with that. He's still performing and he's definitely a positive character who is needed around the place. Id . pick him over Ferres, Delaney and Walters.

I'd Pick Stevo over Walters, unless the task called for falling over the line and landing on the ball, in a big game

burrow got another year in him comfortably.

JJb a good player to have around the place and around the squad, but should take more of a back seat next year, he would be ideal to lead an A team as player coach.

mcguire, time to hang up the boots its been great but nows the time.

Im not so sure, if we are being linked with the likes of Myler then we would not be replacing Mags with an improvement, the coaches need make a judgement call on Lilly, if they think he could handle a year of SL then I say we try it next year, if not then we may need to stick with Mags till we can get something better.

Agree JJB and Burrow should stay on, as long as they are willing to be phased out, I would like to see Jack Walker get to play a few games in the 14 role next year for us

Myler might not be an improvement, but he's a halfback, unlike Moon, and with some track record, unlike Lilley. Would you feel confident going with Lilley/Moon as our starting halfbacks?

What does Myler do better than Moon?

I dont watch enough of Lilley or Aston to make a judgement tbh, but we may as well try one of them at 7 (preferably Lilley) if the best we can buy is Myler

I am happy to go into next year with either Moon or Sutcliffe at 6, though I dont think they could play next to each other

People seem to have written off Lilley and Sutcliffe as halves because of last year, but I think a lot of their problems came from not having a recognised hooker, if we hold onto Parcell for the next few years I think they could do a decent job

The future is pretty easy to predict.

Jordan Lilley released to join Wakefield when not deemed good enough.

Jordan Lilley stays at Wakefield for one season before being transferred to Cas as a replacement for the outgoing Luke Gayle.

Jordan Lilley bosses proceedings everytime he plays against his former club.

Sound familiar???

Is that to coincide with an announcement about Magsy retiring or is the plan to have both Myler & Magsy for 2018 or is it going to be a HB partnership of Myler and Moon

If gale ended up at Leeds I would take that.
Lilley may need to follow gales lead and get game time in super league elsewhere.
