Well deserved they love him out there and he's proved what we already knew about his undoubted quality.

Well done Gaz

If you are simply trolling for bites then this user name will go the same way as the others, pack it in.

Gareth Ellis is worthy of everyone's respect. He's a player who has come on leaps and bounds in the NRL. He's also a testament to the top class coaching abilities of Tim Sheens who ironed out all those defensive flaws and the dodgy decision-making inherent in Ellis's game by instructing him on a back-to-basics re-education and learning program.

Its surprising he earnt himself a contract in the NRL at all given how poor you are implying he must have been when at Leeds.

What's the chances of getting him back to Headingley ? Sam Burgess too ? No quota then to worry about.

just a salary cap. meh never stopped wigan though did it?

Having spoken to Gareth's father in law that's not far off.

By NRL standards Ellis was poor - he was a SL standard player at Leeds. I don't find it surprising that a top NRL coach was able to recognise his potential for improvement. The desire to learn, improve and test himself in an elite competition was always there.

It's a common theme for those of a ted nature to point out how well a SL player is doing in the NRL and then arriving at the erroneous conclusion that it somehow provides evidence that SL standards are just as good - and perhaps even better - than the NRL. That is not the case.

what's not far off?
