I can't wait, I used to love watching the touring International sides taking on the British Club teams.

Exactly

As one of the younger member of this board I have often heard of the touring sides of decades ago and how great it was to watch them.....without actually having experienced them.

Now we have a chance to see Leeds take on a touring NZ side. Will it be it be our strongest possible side....no. Will we win......most likely not.

But hell it'll be a occasion you can talk about in 20/30 years time (like many do about Leeds in the 70's/80's/90's)......so let's enjoy it.

I realise some posters on here will have to find a dictionary and look up the word 'ENJOYMENT' as they don't have a clue what the word means.

Academy vs NZ. Still going. But those expecting starters will be disapointed.

There's no way Hetherington will big up the event and then just put out academy lads.

Every player who isn't injured or unavailable due to England call ups will be playing.
Obviously Peacock & Sinfield are unknowns but I'd be suprised if Peacock didn't fancy a go.

We'll be in the GF. So thats the pefect send off.

It's a cracking fixture imo but the way the Clubs twitter feed was bigging up a "Big H/T announcement that they think everyone will be excited about" brought a muted response amongst many at the game who were clearly expecting a signing to be announced.
Putting all that aside though i'm looking forward to seeing the Kiwis down at HQ irrespective of who we can or will select.

Golding

Briscoe
Moon
Ablett
Handley

Sutcliffe
Mcguire

Singleton
Aiton
JP
Delaney
JJB
Sinfield

Achurch
Kylie
Yates
Burrow

If we assume Hardaker,Hall,Ward and Cutbertson get selected for England then our team lining up to face the Kiwis could look something like this.Certainly capable of keeping it competetive however plenty of time between now and then and the likes of Ablett,Briscoe and Singleton are also more than capable of making the England squad.

Has a signing ever been announced at a game?

No I didn't think it'd be a signing, I thought it might have been either Burrow leaving or some announcement about the stadium.

Joel 'Cantona' Tomkins was

After reading stuff about the stadium on here the last couple of weeks, I thought it was going to be something about redevelopment on some part(s) of it. Plus as well, I noticed new (?) floodlights at the cricket stadium that looked like massive clovers. Unless my observation skills are lacking and they have been there for ages..?
