There is positivity in the kids. They aren't there yet most of them but it looks like:
Herbie - looks to be an elite back at either centre or wing AND signed on
Coates - looks to be an elite winger, was looking electric before being injured
Walsh - looks to potentially be an elite fullback, completely unproven though and may be lost to a ridiculous offer
Staggs - Already an elite centre offensively, school boy like defensively, potential to be a good 6 but may be lost to a ridiculous offer
Flegler - looks to have elite potential and is good already but quite a few kinks to iron out - signed on
Riki - looks to be an elite second-rower in the making and smart, needs to build tank
Dearden - question marks everywhere, looks to have something about him but nowhere near able to make a judgment
Piakura - highly sought after, no idea as hasn't seen first grade and may be lost to a ridiculous offer
Haas - elite prop already but totally lacks aggression, tends to go missing in big moments but will love being part of the new atmosphere at the club
Carrigan - He looks like he could either be elite or just good, needs to learn urgency and play less minutes, PLEASE DEVELOP AN OFFLOAD!
Cobbo - No idea what he will become yet but by all reports has a fantastic attitude and that puts him high in my book
Niu - Very early days but he looks like he could well become a very good to elite centre
So even if we lose Staggs, Dearden, Piakura and Walsh, the future is looking brighter. I am hoping we just lose one to two of them at worst. I suspect we keep Coates and lose Staggs and if that is the case, the emergence of Herbie and Niu as centres certainly looks to soften that blow.
