| Given the disparity in wages we're never going to sign star RU players again. What might be worth looking at is fringe players who might fancy a crack at RL, particularly smaller forwards and threequarters. So long as you accept that they'll probably hop back to RU if they start looking good, they might be worth a punt. Otherwise the days of RU players crossing to RL would appear long gone.

| Rather than players we should be looking at how they fund their salary caps. How many of our SL clubs can afford the current Cap

| Leeds recent-ish track record includes:
John Gallagher
Craig Innes
Jim Fallon
Japie Mulder
Graham McKay (although was originally a league player - also Lee Smith and Gary Connolly)
Mike Coady
Josh Walters (wasn't he originally with the union side in Leeds?)
There's probably quite a few more... On balance, it hasn't turned out so well for us!
