| Quote batleyrhino="batleyrhino"If Handley is so set on being a Fullback, he can go do it somewhere else as he has none of the required skills other than a bit of pace.'" much the same as his qualifications for being a winger , no go forward unless put in the clear and unfortunately not had same centres as cummins

There you go again, just unnecessary and arrogant.
FWIW John Kear doesn't sound like a terrible acquisition to me me.

| Hey up,this is my first attempt at posting on this forum
The one stand out thing this Leeds side does really well is handing the advantage back to the opposition. Do not know if there is a table for giving needless penalties away , but I reckon t'rhinos will be up there.Losing to a depleted wakey side with only 12 men ( 2nd half ) still takes some believing

| welcome.
and you are correct. plus when you are passive and invite pressure it's a recipe for disaster. teams like wakey and cas you go at them, put your foot on their throat and done let go.
no us. we let them attack and gain confidence

| It won't let me quote your post about Handley Tad.
Basically, Rohan has said a few times in interviews that Handley is keen to play FB and the club believes he has the attributes to develop there. The same has been said by Craig Harrison and John Bastian.
IMO he should only be at FB when needs absolute must.

| I've no issue with Handley been given the chance to show he can play fullback if thats where he feels he wants to play. But these last few games have shown he is not a fullback and should be back on the wing.

| Isn't that the point - he's been given the chance and has failed to take it? Why persevere at the expense of the team?

| We're a professional sports team. We cannot seriously be in a situation where a player says "I fancy a shot at playing there" and he gets to play there, in first team games, with comp points at stake.

| It happened a few times in the NRL. There was a fad a few years ago with a bunch of threequarters clamouring to play full back - presumably for the higher prestige and salaries. Most sank without trace, even talented players like Val Holmes. Mitchell is now a very good full back, but I'd argue he could have been seen as one of the greatest centres of all time had he stayed there, rather than 'just' being a very good fullback. Bottom line is that the skillset is very different to the rest of the threequarters - just because someone is quick, strong etc doesn't mean they can play fullback.
