You have to credit Blease he is making a difference. Leeds have released 8 players of which only Martin was a regular starter in the 17. Discounted Fusitua as he missed so many games. We have brought in 4 players who are all potential starters in the 17. Add in Holroyd and Gannon and we look in a much better place. We have added size in the pack and guaranteed metres out of backfield plus some creativity with Connor. If we could secure another release and a strike player you would have to be pleased with the transfer business. Its not that long since the chat was we had little room to change the squad till 2026
Would rather have Agar or Rohan back before this guy. The bloke has more lives than a sack of cats. He's managed to exceed the likes of John Kear in how far a coach can milk one Challenge Cup win... Can someone explain why he's still a top coach? If he was at an English club he would have been done years ago.
To be fair, he has 20 years experience, coached at every level in Europe, has a fair amount of experience coaching in Australia and NZ. He's taken Catalans from the million pound game, to grand finalists, league leaders and CC winners. It's a very solid record.
He wouldn't be my choice though.
These are my thoughts too, I wouldnt pick him but hes not done a bad job at Catalan and I'd defs have him over Smith and Agar again. We could do a lot worse than McNamara but could also do better.

Holroyd has renewed with us according to beeb. Thinking on that once Burgess, Hill and Walmsley hang up, there arent that many British props who are both good and big...
