What would help sinfields development would be if he could play a game more than every few weeks at any level. He must have played less than a dozen games al year, not a great basis to judge what he might be capable of. If he doesn't play great coming in to the first team off the back of been sat on his hands well no sht (especially as a half). The set up of the game lets young lads down

It’s not like young Sinfield has been sat waiting behind a star performer. Frawley has been most of the time poor, a lot of the time abject, and very occasionally half decent. If they had been brave enough to drop an underperforming Frawley for more than the odd game we might have seen a progression and had more of a clue about young Jack. It’s been a season wasted for Jack, the club and the fans.

I'm sure a championship club would be delighted to have him for a year, but they'd want him for all of it. No recall if Croft or Frawley got injured. We just don't have the depth at half to do that. Catch 22.

Agree with both of you. I think three (Momirovski, Sangare, and Goudemand) will leave and we'll look to bring in 4 players - 2 props, a second row and a wing/centre. The big thing is - all those signings would have to be very good players, and one would have to be a non quota player. Not an easy task for Blease. Also think that pre-season is a huge opportunity for young Sinfield. We don't have a goal kicker and our first choice half is no more than solid, so destiny is calling him if he has the talent.

Agree , we desperately need a goal kicker and an open field kicker next season, so it’s there for young Sinfield to put pressure on Frawley.

As I watched the game at KR one other thought went through my mind , given we are losing one of the best if not the best goal kicker , do we go for Sneyd for a year or 2 .

He ‘s played with Croft and Ackers, he’s the other top goal kicker in SL and his open field kicking is way better than what we have now.

Frawley tries hard and is a good defender but he plays exactly the same game every week, once you work out not to fall for the dummy, it’s a mix of drop offs and poor kicks.

Maybe we are better just hoping Jack can come through over next 2 years.

I hope you are right about the 3 who might leave.
