I agree that BJB is the future fullback maybe even in 2012. When that happens I think Hardaker will move to the wing which I think is his best position which will create a vacancy in the centre.

You didnt answer why we needed cover for the Halfbacks though?
If the shit hits the fan we have McShane,Burrow,Webb,Hardaker and maybe even Lee Smith who could cover and thats not even looking into the academy for help!

I don't think we really need to bring anyone in but it depends if these young lads will be ready. I do think we could do with a half back but id give stevie ward or Luke briscoe a go first.
I think hardaker is going to make a belting centre so I'd leave him there.
When Webb leaves bjb to full back and smith back on the wing if he's still around and if not hopefully there will be another academy player lined up.

Adam, nice try, but you could role all your hookers into one and the accumulative wouldn't make a quarter of the player that Bedsy is.

There arent many hookers in the world of RL that would be at that standard,
I do think the combination of mcshane and burrow next season will come good though

Brent Webb
Keith Senior
Kylie Leuluai
Jamie Peacock
Ali Lauititi
Ryan Bailey
Ian Kirke
Luke Burgess
In addition although Danny Buderus is not out of contract until 2012, there are rumours that he will return to Newcastle at the end this season (assuming the club will release him).
Whatever happens there will have to be significant changes to the squad.
I've heard the following rumours:
Brent Webb - Widnes
Keith Senior - retiring
Ali Lauititi - Widnes
Luke Burgess - NRL
These are only rumours and no doubt there are others as well. Have you any idea who might be staying and who could be going? When Gary returned from Australia at the end of last year he said the main purpose was to look at players availability for 2012. Have the above rumours any credence and any others doing the round? As for new players coming in any ideas who Gary is after and how long we will have to wait for news? There's lots of speculation that Rangi Chase will join the Rhinos but I don't know how reliable the information is. As for signings from the NRL I've seen the names of Trent Waterhouse and Matt Cooper mentioned as players we are interested in? Does anybody want to speculate on outs and ins for next year?
Keith Senior and Ali Lauitiiti are off to Wakefield.
