Thought i would make a separate thread for this
Weller Hauraki has been linked with Leeds
and we are meant to be closing in on a prop from the NRL, could it be JWH??

viewtopic.php?f=17&t=472965&start=30 and those rumours are both in Dave Parker's column in League Weekly, not always the best source for correct information, shall we say?

I'd take Hauraki in an instant, been a big player for Crusaders. He outplayed our forward pack at Headingley.

JWH would be an excellent signing but it's probably not him.

john wesley hardin? no fecker would mess with him thats for sure

He'd go well with rlthis guyrl

www.superleague.co.uk/statistics ... eason=2010 Not sure. Try scoring version of JJB who misses more tackles and makes more errors.

Hauraki reminds of Poching in many ways and no doubt would improve in our squad but we'd still need another "go forward" prop aswell and if we sign both then fine but harauki isn't a top drawer replacement for Eastwood on his own.

Leeds could really do with more forwards who really hit the line hard. Too many of our pack are 'solid' and don't ask questions of the defence. With Eastwood gone we only have Ali (if fit) who opposing defences struggle to stop. We need the likes of Peacock, Ablett, JJB, Clarkson etc, but if you're being honest its no surprise none of our 'real' forwards (prop/second row) have been picked for England.

The one who I've been a little disappointed with this year is Ablett. He was playing well early doors, but for someone with the basic tools of a bit of size and speed and seemingly enough nous to run the right angle, he just doesn't stretch the defence often enough yet.

Any news/gossip down under as to who the NRL prop is that we are supposed to be in for?

Hello guys, I think this is my first contribution.....for quite a while anyway.

As a Rhinos fan living in Sydney and also supporting the Roosters.....I can squash the rumours about Jared Waerea Hargreaves....he's contracted at the roosters for at least the next year, and probably a long time after that.

Weller Hauraki? Not even sure where he's playing these days....he sort of dropped off the radar.

There have been very few rumours over here regarding anyone moving to Leeds......maybe once the 4 Nations starts, there might be a whisper or two.....

The whole Eastwood thing has been very quiet too.....maybe because of the Grand Final, or maybe the Dogs haven't made it official yet.

To stand a chance next season we need 2 big no nonsense forwards. Far too many times last season we were getting put on our backs and losing the collision every time. Im glad we've been linked with 2.

Means nothing. Leeds flash some $$$$$ and they can get what they want. Leeds know it won't be easy to replace Eastwood. We we're also well short in the forwards departments last season. Our rivals have also strengthened there packs further for 2011. Its very important Leeds get the right people otherwise next season could well mirror the one that has just past.

Sorry pal your wrong Hargreaves does not have a contract for next year.

And it's obvious your player movement knowledge isn't worth dick
