Probably depends on whether Leeds see Robbie Ward as a future starter. If so then they'll rightly go for a stop-gap (I'd put Lunt in that class as well as Ballin). If they go for Houghton or similar it tells you all you need to know about how much they rate Ward.
BTW Ballin's OK but not all that. The main benefit he'd bring is coming from a club with a win at all costs mentality. He's way down the list of NRL hookers. If I could pick one it would be Josh Hodgson - he's been an absolute revelation for the Raiders and he's not an Aussie. I wouldn't be at all surprised if McNamara picks him as first choice for England at the end of the year.
