Greg bird. He must qualify as French? Well he played in France, seems to be enough nowadays

Eric Anselme?

no you lot are getting it wrong

mcdermott was given a shopping list by his wife and it had RAGU on it for there spag bog not RAGUIN

Gary H said the Rhinos wanted to recruit a player but only one who can "make a difference". He went on to say the search will continue overseas and at home.
I would think that to raise fans expectations he probably already has got someone signed up. Will the French players mentioned on this thread "make a difference"? Could it be someone still under contract but Gary is willing to pay a transfer fee?

Will make a difference, might not be a good difference though. Just hope if there is no one better than what we currently have that we don't just spend up to cap for the sake of it. If the quality isn't there wouldn't want to spend for sake of it

Jean Phillipe Baille would do me. Classy kid imo and would compliment us nicely.

SBW and Quade Cooper are apparently being hawked around the NRL for 2013 by their agent (who isn't actually accredited, which is angering the registered agents). Apparently SBW is keen to return to Sydney, and there's a strong belief that the upcoming TV deal will lead to a big increase in the cap money available here.

What ever happened to him?

He was playing for a sub-super league French side - possibly Toulouse - earlier this year.

Correct

compl-e-ment

Another forum is still mentioning Tuilagi and Hape are being linked with us.
Is this old news or is it now being resurrected?

Welcome to the delights of intenet forums - what starts as a rumour in one place surfaces as fact in another before moving off and becoming rumour somewhere else.

If Leeds are genuinely looking for a player to "make a difference" then Shontayne Hape should be somewhere very close to the bottom of their wishlist. Stick a fork in his career, it's done - well, to the point he could probably still play in the Premiership for another couple of years anyway.
