This is what I'm getting at - all this talk that 'Nobby would never take the leeds job' is wide of the mark. He, like players, has a 'professional' take on the game rather than the parochial outlook we fans have.

From what I heard - if Brian Mac hadn't been handed the gig on a plate - Nobby would have put his hat in the ring, in a flash. Whether this is a good thing, is a different story altogether...

Anyway - back on topic:

Burrow to the Bulls? With DM out injured until mid-summer, I can't see it happening. Going into a new season without your starting halves from the past few years (through injury/transfers) would be a risk I'm not sure Leeds would take - especially as seeing as though there can't be many quality replacements available at this stage (unless of course GH is going to splash the Canterbury/Eastwood cash).

I too have heard Chase is Leeds's main target, and if you look at Leeds's latest accounts they clearly do have money for him. With Westerman gone, it's less clear if Cas need to sell.

Also, Chase wouldn't fit into our squad unless we got rid of Burrow. Now seen as Burrow clearly isn't going to Bradford (as they've signed a 23 y/o Scrum Half yesterday), where would he go? Really can't see him going to Cas. Home town or not, he still wants to win things.

Burrow is going nowhere, it's just silly season talk.

sorry my bad

How do you know Burrow still wants to win things ? A comfortable living with less pressure might hold more appeal in his older years....i know it does me.

And why would Chase only " fit in " if we dispensed with Burrow's services ? Some might say Burrow is in fact a better impact hooker off the bench than he is a scrum half .... Inc me.
Improving the squad if possible is always surely better.. ....esp if we know the club is going to be devoid of its major talents early season due to knee ligament damage. Cross is one answer; Chase is a possible other.
