He had a slow start settling in, also think he's been carrying an injury for much of the year. Most of us Wire fans have been very happy with his performances over the past month / 6 weeks. He's just moved over to the area, doesn't really sound like a player who's looking to move on.

| Brierly is the new myler. Quick, good support, gets over the try line but that's it. Think we will need more than that to replace Sinn/mags and support sutty.
A hooker is on the must have list. Anything after that is just forward planning for second rows really.

| I'm pretty sure that we will announce Matt Ballin as our new 9 to replace Aiton
Depending on how many players we will loan out next season like Baldwinson and Minchella who will both be back in the 25 man squad but who won't be playing at the Rhinos IMO, Then i would love to take Brierley on board as he could eventually prove to be McGuire's eventual replacement at 7

Totally agree with all this.....not impressed by the notion of signing Brierley for the reasons you state. Those saying he is the new McGuire do McGuire a dis-service. Isn't Lilley a better option to develop??
As you say hooker is the new priority superseding half back....but if the rumours are true about Ballin that'll do donkey. Half back in the mould of Brough (without the gobe attitude) rather than Myler please. Second rowers secondary IMO

Happy with Ballin but we then need a replacement for Sinfield next

| At least on paper (and ignoring aitons outstanding form) Ballin would appear a significant upgrade (and about the same age isn't he). He seams to have been utterly shafted by Manly...they seem pretty clueless off the field.
As for Brierly, I've not seen that much of him (mainly cc games) but I've always been impressed. Yes support and pace are his main assets but he also seems to have pretty good awareness and whilst hes clearly not the type of player who would control a game he does seem to play with his head up. I think he'd be a good SL player in the right side (and given our attacking game can't see why that shouldn't be us)

| A fair few Leigh fans were slagging off Brierley after their weekends game asking when will he do something in the big games.
Must admit from the CC games shown on TV he didn't do too bad.
Fickle fans hey unlike us!

A bit like McGuire was for the first 10 years? That'll do for me

A bit like but not a patch on McGuire of 10 years ago. Leeds need to do better than him.

| Wouldn't be surprised if Brierley and Ballin are our final signings of the season. I see another one coming in if we don't get Brierley, but who will be interesting.

I would be quite happy if this was our 2016 squad and hopefully a high quality half back comes in for 2017

I love playing for him. I can't praise him enough, I've so much respect for him and I hope he's here for a very long time." Kevin Sinfield 29/9/12:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_68506.jpg |

| Here is the news. We've already recruited a replacement for Sinfield.
Has Mc D let a cat out of the bag? (About 1http://www.therhinos.co.uk/matchdaytv/?play

not technically a "recruitment" per say but probably just means Sutcliffe is the player "recruited (promoted) to replace Sinfield.
Seemed quite confident that we would be signing a hooker for next year, but sounded equally so that that would be it for signings.
