| Quote: carnegiedweller "Think Prior gets the grief because people expect any overseas import that comes over is going to be a Buderus or Ali!
Thing I have taken from all this is how much noise the club made about bringing in "the right people not just the right players" and I think we are starting to see a bit of that. Obviously a first win for a lot of them so bound to be a big one for them but you can certainly see how much it means and it all seems to be for the right reason. Both Ava and Handley gave pretty emotional interviews.
We've probably all seen the spirit of the Rhino thing JJB came up with. I really do think he deserves some credit after the stick he was given for getting a "job for the boys". I know we'll never know for certain I reckon a lot of the closeness we see in the current squad comes back to that time and those conversations.'"
Buderus was injured for most of his 3 years with us. Came Good at the end though and is probably remembered for that....

| Buderus played 80+ games in 3 years. He had one bad injury, but was pretty healthy for the most part.

Quite. There's some bizarre rewriting of history on here at times.

| Brett Delaney wasn't a huge profile signing when he came to us (although not shabby either) - and he had a great career here. We have been hit-and-miss with star names, but some of the best imports have been the solid professionals like Prior.
The thing about him is that he is absolutely not a prop (like Merrin), and he needs to be in the back row, ideally LF. That's where I scratch my head a bit when Cam Smith has been playing well and getting into 1st grade on merit. Then again Prior put in a real performance in the CC Final and I'm not sure Smith is quite at that level yet.
Prior has a really good offload on him from what I've seen, and if we can encourage that he'll cause damage.
Honestly I think our squad is looking very well balanced this year, now we've found the right positions for a couple of players, and switched Hurrell to the right. One real high quality prop addition and we'll be in a position to put more dominant performances in. Exciting times - it just depends on what state our finances are in during Covid times as to whether we can afford that kind of quality for 2021. It's tantalisingly close now because these young lads like Holroyd, Walters, even Smith and Oledski are going to get better.

| What happened during the GG was we stopped getting 'star' imports to try and build a team around, and instead bought ones that would fit into what we already had. It didn't always work out *cough*Achurch*, but we've had more successes than failures.

| Kylie wasn't heralded before he came across, and neither was Donald really. Both absolutely cracking players for us IMO. Even further back Brad Godden, maybe Chris McKenna.
I think the signings of Prior, Ava and Martin are in that kind of mould, but I wouldn't mind a push in this prop position... then again I was annoyed we missed out on Sam Kasiano so I clearly know nothing!

| There doesn't seem to be much news on Cuthbertson injury. Anyone know what he did and how long he will be out for?

Glanville was an integral part of Murray's rock hard pack. One of my favourite memories was him 'accidentally' standing on a Lahndan player's hand, the player getting up and trying to lamp Glanville, and Glanville getting the penalty.

| I loved the transformation under Murray it was magnificent we became very very tough with a touch of world class at half with Harris. Fond memories and rest in peace Graham.

He's been a terrific signing.

One of my proudest moments as a Rhino having witnessed the serial capitulation of many a Leeds pack in the 80’s and 90’s.

Absolutely. It was such a pleasure to watch after years of being abysmal and soft
