Absolutely, not many people danced around Wellens like that...and that's not to mention the try he set up for Ryan Hall. That dummy! I think Meli had to buy a ticket to get back in the stadium!
Not much I can add to what others have already said. He will rightly go down as one of our greats. There are just so many memories. It's quite refreshing to see the compliments from fans of other clubs on social media this morning. Says a lot about him as a player and a person.
This is probably the right time for him though, and I'm delighted to see him staying on as a coach.

What a fabulous player he's been. The ability to do things no other player could do and definitely a big game performer. Great defender as well. Not much to say really that hasn't been said - legend.

Had a bit of a tear when I saw it confirmed yesterday.
This generation of players has given everything to Leeds and the cause for so long and this man was right at the vanguard of it.
Great footwork, amazing acceleration and speed and of course the heart of a lion meant that he often was able to wrestle back momentum in a game almost single handedly.
By all accounts a great guy of the field and enough about him to back himself in this new chapter of his life, he leaves with not only my admiration but my thanks for whatever little that is, we may never see his like again.

| Quality player, always found myself out of my seat shouting 'Get hold of him!!!" whenever he had the ball, he caused all sorts of mayhem with our defence. That try will take some beating as the best Grand Final try ever (although naturally I preferred Gleeson's second try the year before  ). Best of luck Beep beep! |

Says in the YEP that whilst he has a slim chance of making the SF next week as he's ahead of schedule it's unlikely he'll make it for that. Week 1 or 2 of the 8's look likely then which would at least get him some game time IF we do make Wembley.
