Ok, this season was not to the standard of what we have become to expect, but when we look at the season as a whole, I think the main positive will be that we have a lot of fringe players who now have plenty of experience and will push the injured more experienced players next year.
 
Dan Davis, Helps, McCloud, Nicollas, Dan Jones, just to name a few.
 
We will be stronger for this season.

Biggest positive for me has been the way Kiearn Hardy has come into the team and is making a serious challenge to be out number 1 number 9.

Me too, he saw off an experienced international scrum half in SHC.

The battle for the 2nd place on the wing will be interesting, with Prydie really being the talisman for Llanelli and kicking long range goals against Steff and Nicholas, could be an interesting battle. McNicholl is nailed on, he is far better a winger than fullback could we also see Clayton back at 15, or perhaps someone else.

Sorry, my list was not full of who I thought, and Hardy if he continues to improve will be in Welsh Team

Hardy, Dan Davis and Helps were bright lights in this poor season.

I wonder when we will learn more about next seasons' targets, future recruitment and new coaching appointments (replacements for SJ & BH)?
What's going on?

Clayton played on the wing for Leicester over the weekend. Scored a try too, I think.

In terms of who will make a difference, I'd go with Dan Davis and Kieran Hardy. Really good players, who barring injuries should make the Welsh team in the next couple of years. 

Not wishing to sound pedantic but Dan's surname omits the e - English style. It's all good.

Why, oh why did we release Will Boyd ? (who has just been "snapped" up by the Blues)

We are all disappointed with Boyde leaving but can we just stop now? 

 Let’s be positive about the fresh new young talent that is coming through the system. 

Shingler will be like a new signing next year as will Cubby. 

Let’s regroup and push on.

As much as i rate him,he would have been 3rd possibly 4th choice in any backrow position next year. That position should go to youngsters coming throgh the age grade. Theres a few in the u20's that are pushing hard

The last two posts spot on! The likes of Dan Davies and Jac Morgan are special talents.
