Surely that's the other way round?

Nah, Aiton is better than Ellis for me. Ellis arrived just as the team were getting it together, I guarantee you won't think so next year as Aiton takes full advantage. That said I do think Ellis is SL standard so surprised he's dropping a level.

Agree completely;the speed of Ellis' passing has, no doubt, given Smith more time and space to dictate the course of games since his inclusion.
If true it's not a decision I would have made but if we aspire to a higher level these type of tough decisions will have to be made.

| Disappointed if Ellis has gone/is going but as others have said suppose I should reserve judgement until we know the make up of the squad for next year. We need to get the best out of the money we have, so it may be that keeping Wood and letting Ellis goes allows us to strengthen in other areas (given I would expect Ellis to be on more than Wood).

| Ellis actually takes the line on from dummy half and aiton tends not to, having that variation would be good for the side IMO.

| Hope this is wrong, Ellis is a much better all round hooker than Wood and the perfect foil for Aiton. It would be a mistake to release him imho.

| Crazy decision to let him go, and if Trinity have I'd be amazed if another SL club doesn't come in for him.

| I'll wait and see what actually happens, rather than base an opinion on what a Wakey fan says a Fev fan told him at the weekend.

| Ellis made a big impact when he was with us earlier this season. Other clubs might come in for him but players are wanting to come and play for us at the moment. I hope the rumour is true, no doubt we will ask the question on Wednesday at our fans forum.
Well done for this season. Early on it didn't look good but you certainly gave the Whinos a scare at their gaff in the play-offs.

| Well after all the early season calls about some of our players last season not getting a game when we couldnt win a game there is Matty Wildie who has been on duel reg and James Davey out at Sheffield.
We cant have our cake and eat it and I agree with the coach the team needs strengthening in areas, AE has been great but I am not sure he could last as his intensity for 80 minutes hence the need to rotae him with Wood, Aiton plays many more minutes and can cover at loose.
If the Foxy rumour is true it might also back up the Probiz blokes claim about shifting brass into Fev for some quality players. I would like us to sign a flyer on the wing, Foxy is great and never shirks running out of defence but on Saturday in open play leeds appeared yards faster than our defence.
Decision on Mathers too if he goes BC can cover full back this would give the opportunity for another winger or Danny Cowling/Sam Fletcher to start in the first team. What we really need is a big enforcer up front.
I think we are looking pretty good given that we usually change the majority of the squad each season we are now looking at critical positional changes to improve the whole team.
