Yes I read that too and he says he`s hoping he can kickstart his career in the SL after so many injuries have kept him from the first team!

He's a big boy, 6'4" and close to 17 1/2 Stones. That's either a massive back rower or a good size prop.

Another project signing

probably recommended by Smith

Well I guess we are second rate and prepared to continually gamble on the chance we may eventually pick up a gem

It was injuries that preventing him breaking into the Cowboys first team squad but hes played a full season at the Devils this time (their feeder club) scoring 8 trys.

Apparently both the Eels and Dragons were looking at bringing him on board for next season, but he’s decided to come to play in the SL .

Ex- Aussie schoolboy international for Aus and highly thought of and had it not been for injuries people reckon he would have made the Cowboys roster by now.

So if it is Cooper Jenkins (6'4 & 17.5st) and Tepai Moeroa (6'3 & 17.5st) that's some genuine size added up front now.

I'm still hoping we release Momo for another quota spot too.

Moeroa?

Jenkins was also the strongest in the whole Dolphins/Devils squad, winning the Bench (150kg) and Squat (225kg) competitions in pre-season, 6ft 4, 17+ stone, fast (played wing for NSW u16) theres a lot to like about him, again, good buissness imo if we have signed him.

Not on twitter much these days, it's depressing. Thanks for the link,though !

Maybe someone at Leeds thinks we are small team ?
They could read these pages as that’s what we have been saying for the last 5 years !!

So the players that I was told over a month ago leaving have all been pretty much confirmed just 1 or 2 more which could be released to the public this week, the only one who could be sparred is Sangare as the club don't want to lose props as they really do want to improve the size of the pack. Hence why we have been linked with Tepai Moeroa & Cooper Jenkins, both these players are props but have covered back row during their careers at some point but the club apparently aren't actively looking to bring in an out and out back rower in and are currently happy with the options they have. Big sized props are on the agenda as we all know.

Maika Sivo has been offered a 2 year deal but the problem would be Quota spots Momirovski could very well be moved on if he can secure a release.

Nothing has been confirmed yet and deals aren't 100% done but I'd imagine our 2025 squad could possibly look something like this.
1. L.Miller (OQ)
2. New Winger
3. H.Newman
4. P.Momirovski (OQ)
5. A.Handley
6. B.Croft (OQ)
7. M.Frawley (OQ)
8. M.Oledzki
9. A.Ackers
10. T.Moeroa (OQ)/ New prop
11. J.Bentley
12. J.Mcdonnell
13. C.Smith
14. J.O'Connor
15. S.Lisone (OQ)
16. T.Holroyd
17. J.Connor
18. C.Jenkins/New Middle (OQ)
19. J.Sangare
20. M.Gannon
21. J.Sinfield
22. A.Edgell
23. T.Nicholson-Watton
24. R.Lumb
25. R.Hall
26. N.Mccormack
27. T.Warren
28. M.Simpson
29. B.Littlewood
30. J.Smith

Surely Hall is the new winger
