Hmm, Massey really needs to start impressing at some level to stay at the club imo. He seems to be getting overtaken by some of the younger guys.

davis looked like a world beater a couple of years back with the academy side. Seems to have gone a bit quiet since he played 1st team last year (v les cats I think?).
Massey had a back/shoulder injury last year but i reckon both these two will be top players in the championship. Its funny how these lads seem to fizzle out when they get into the senoir squad , maybe the step up to superleague is too much for them or could it be overrated aussies blocking their path ????

Ideally both will get valuable first team experience and come back better for it. However, should Massey wish to stay on at York, I would be disappointed.

The only overseas forward we have is widders (who spends half the time playing in the backs anyway) and we had sarge last year. I really dont think they are keeping anyone out.

Iirc both davies and massey had long term injuries last season.
