I hope that we can keep the better developing players pn board and fighting for senior spots, even if it means losing good experience players like George Hewett, who is a RFA this year. We also face a low retirement period in the next few years, with only JPK and Franklin looking as probable retirees after 2022, followed by Reid, Rampe and Parker perhaps from 2024 on, which falls well below the usual replacement rate.
