It's not an issue. It's out of the club's hands - he didn't want to play for his place. Players like that destroy dressing room morale. If he plays his cards right he'll continue to impress at Headingley and put himself in the shop window again or maybe catch the eye of McClennan.

That's hardly fair Roy, none of the fans had a problem with Gareth, in fact most of us had him down as the starting stand off, we knew he would score plenty of points given a chance but at the risk of derailing the thread he didn't stand out, in the games where he played he was outshone by the other halfbacks, one of which was only 16 and the rest were not true halfbacks. While he is without doubt very quick with a decent step, Moore created very little for the rest of the side and individuals don't win games on their own, no matter what anyone says.

I was worried about the lad when he said it wasn't his game to tell people where to run, if so then he needs to pick a new position and put on some weight because he will never be a quality half if he can't.

If the alleged drinking was the issue then fair play to him but it looks so far that he bottled it and then refused to stay and fight for his place. This league may be of a lower standard than SL but at this end of the National League spectrum no player is guaranteed a place especially when he is being outperformed. If he wants guaranteed 1st team games maybe he should follow in the footsteps of his mate at Quins who dropped to NL2 and shone.

All that said I don't think any of us think Moore was a bad player, he just wasn't right for us, I for one wish him good luck except when/if he plays against us

to be fair mate if you think you saw anything from 2 twenty minute spells as a sub, then you obviously dont have a clue. If you think the likes of Govin are in the same class you are also halusinating. the players who played at 6 in the pre season games - penkywicz had two stinkers but hey he scored a couple of tries to save his bacon. And he is a great hooker but offers very little in the halves, read the same from other threads on here.
Leeds made the call to bring him back, not the story as was conveniently released by fax, so read into that what you want.

It's not just about 20 minutes spells, it's also about what happens in training four times a week. And didn't he have a full half against Hunslet, plus at least 30 mins against Keighley? Also, I have it on good authority that Leeds didn't call him back, it was agreed between Fax, Gareth and his agent that he should go back before Leeds even knew anything about it. Can't believe this is still rumbling on TBH, think all concerned need to move on. Hope Gareth develops into a top player, but at the moment he's just another academy player looking for his big break.

I heard that he wasn't interested in learning the set moves ehn he was in Spain

best of luck Gareth - I am sure that you will get the break somewhere this year

"OK lads - sets ready and repeat" !!

"Lift glass, put to mouth ......... drink ......drink .......drink ...... slam the glass down, wipe the mouth ...... and .... breathe out".

REPEAT !!!!






Who wouldn't want to learn that?

blah blah bloody blah

Poppa you know absoloutly zip, thats whats called papering over the cracks mate, i know I have been at the club a long long time. do you think fax would announce Leeds recall Player ? no because then all you would be wondering, and wanting explanations ? and This way it all gets swept away, the player gets wrongly slaughtered and everyone moves on.
Its funny that the press in Leeds ran a different version from Leeds Rhinos take on the story, but they have no reason to fabricate it.
it went something like....."After a meeting with the player, it was decided that he returned to headingley with immediate effect, and the club informed halifax of this today, and the player will be back in training here on Tuesday"

anyway i have to go got a flight to catch for a week in the sun - good luck on wednesday !!

You could have still gone to the Manly match - seeing as though you've "been at the club a long long time". Have a nice holiday.

is this post not about

Leeds Rhinos Reserves 40 Celtic Crusaders Reserves 48!,,,,,,, not gareth moore,,


change the record , thats history, we move on and forget about him, and all Rhino Roy wants to do is cause trouble, just ignore him and he will go away,

He's gone - he's at the checking in desk.

The squad had 13 Welsh born players in it.

Crusaders Reserves squad: Paul Ballard, Lee Williams, Steve Tyrer, Aled James, Elliot Kear, Lloyd White, Mark Lennon, David Tangata–Toa, Tom Burnell, Geraint Davies, Barrie Phillips, Loren Quick, Chris Vitalini. Subs: Gil Dudson, Lewis Mills, Harri Greville, Jamie Tibbs.

Only one of the players in this squad have featured in a squad this year. Tangata-Toa once against Hull.

Where the Leeds fan got 4 first team players from I don't know.

Spot on.
