LEEDS RHINOS - HISTORY MAKERS-2007, 2008 and 2009 Champions
[quote="TheOtherOne":7qqvi4ts]Leeds are still the best team in the competition so if we do have to play them I would hope it's at Knowsley Road with home advantage giving us a chance to knock them out. If somehow we end up playing them at Old Trafford I can only see one outcome

He's lightening quick and strong could be worth a go if he'd accept the wage's. |

No harm in giving him a trial as A N Other.... those were the days..... name the trialist.
I thought you were firmly in the 'at the right quality and the right price' camp re signings.
Which of those categories does Biggs satisfy, remembering by your mantra he has to satisfy both? |

Winger is he? Would have to be a cheap option with Hall and Donald already under contract for next season.
Is Biggs likely to be up for a no obligation trial with a view to securing a contract for 2010 onwards? |

Steve Ford. IIRC, received a tasty ban from the WRU and ending up spending a couple of seasons with Salford while it was served before returning to Union. |

It'll take longer for him to learn how to defend properly. He can't tackle. |

[watching Mackay testing the curry in the prison kitchens]
Fletcher: Course, he sees 'imself as an authority on curry, he does, on account of where he was stationed in the army.
Rudge: Where? India?
Fletcher: No, Bradford.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40413.jpg |

Ive seen him play. He's quick, brave and a good finisher in the mould of Steve "Slippery" Morris.
I think oppo teams will target him under the high ball, and in terms of wages, he wont come cheap.
Interesting though

But your first reply on the thread said

You had him potentially signed if Bigg's would accept Leeds' offer without being able to satisfy both your quality and affordable criteria.
Sorry but i had to do it.  |
