Rohan Smith basically confirming that Brad Dwyer is leaving the club at end of the season on his pre match conference.

Makes sense when we have academy players stepping up.

Expected wasn't it. This means we have another approx £80k to play with on the SC. There's tonnes of space free on the cap for next year, we really ought to be signing some much better players.

Goes to show what a difference a coach makes. Dwyer was Agar's go-to man any time we were struggling. Smith wants the hooker to first and foremost provide decent ball and link with the halfbacks with anything else a bonus. I think we've seen already which approach is going to lead to better team performances...

Goes to show how so many fans lack enough insight to see that as they're all annoyed he's being allowed to leave.

Never ceases to amaze me how many fans don't have the first clue about the sport they claim to love.

I continue to be shocked by the amount of people suggesting Dwyer is the best hooker at the club.

A few flashy runs does not a good hooker make

But aside from that wish Brad the best, you could never fault his effort, he’s just not the style of 9 we need to push on.

I always think he came across well in interviews and the press. Respectful of the club etc.

Johnson is ahead of him so good he is leaving and now we can sign another prop for 2023 I assume

Richie Myler was signed to replace Danny McGuire

Brad Dwyer was signed to replace Rob Burrow

It's no shock we've had a rubbish few years.

That's no disrespect to Richie and Brad with who have given their all and Ritchie is lucky he has found his true position.

I find it difficult to take anyone seriously when they say Dwyer should be kept or he's one of our best players. Yes, he's given everything for Leeds and at a time when we needed someone to play with his passion. But he won't take us forward or get us moving up the table.

I had a chat with a neighbour about this and said how he stops the team from playing. His response was that he's fast as anything. Even when another neighbour joined in (ex pro who played for the Kiwis) and said you need a hooker who can pass and can have structure off. The neighbour still wouldn't have it. Embarrassing
