Surly we must be bringing someone in? I reckon Leeming will have been in decent money - certainly enough for us to use the cap space for someone else

Not really. Just gone from Captain, to being told not good enough for reg games. He has England ambitions and can do a good job for another club. Mate of mine says Cas could be interested, with Mamo retiring immediately…..

Maybe he's just asked Rohan a straight question about his place in the pecking order, got a really straight answer, and instructed his agent to act accordingly. In fairness to Leeming, at 27 he'll want to be a starting hooker. He's been a goodish for a few years but obviously the view at the club is that O'Connor offers more.

Yeah I think Leeming is a lovely bloke but I’m not gutted he’s going. Hopefully this is a sign of things to come and we’ll be farewelling a couple of other senior players by year end. If we really want to win things again we must sign better quality senior players to support the youth.

I’m going to go with Wigan. Cleared salary cap off with Bateman so have money to spend.

never rated him. Good runner from dummy half but that's about it

Rohans already started that last off season, call it ruthless but its clear he's here to do a job. Leemings spoken lots about his England dissapointed as a motivation and he's just not got that consistent level in him defence being a major concern.

smiths maybe seen the difference in performance when he's on the field compared to O'Connor and decided he's not the kind of player we need

As Jack Burton said it happens a lot in NRL and Rohan talks a lot about what a good athlete he is.

If, big IF you had Newman at FB and Gannon at stand off in a few years time, it fills 2 key positions with academy products and gives you more cap to play with.

Myler is very tough and durable but he’s been playing for 16 years now. He’s got a lot of miles on the clock and although he’s very smart, we need a bit of cover there. It’s just my thoughts and if you listened to my wife, you’d have a pretty low opinion of them.

Half time in an interesting game so far, but I’m hearing cowboys requested contact with Leeming

Dallas or North Queensland?
