so is this webb rumour true?

IF this were true, and it meant we were discussing a serious illness or injury, then whether it affects Leeds Rhinos adversely is pretty irrelevant.

That aside, I could say all kinds of good things about his time in a Leeds shirt, but I'll save them until such time (hopefully at least a few months away) as he actually leaves the club.

I'd have though Frosties would have had some work to build up his credibility a bit to merit a three page thread on a rumour he posted.

Really people?

this is not true in the yep Brian McDermott said Brent has not recovered from his illness just yet. He has been feeling a bit rough for the last couple of weeks and can’t shake it off. “We’re not concerned, but it is a combination of a bad cold and bad flu and he has not been feeling up to training and playing at the level we require. “He is slightly better this week, but we can’t say he is going to play at this stage www.yorkshireeveningpost.co.uk/s ... -1-4411791 or and Moore will be sidelined for two to three weeks

Isn't the whole forum dependent on rumour and speculation to generate a thriving high level of contributors ??

It certainly makes and exposes the ts.

Well, your contribution has made it four pages...

Is this another rumour that doesn't actually have a rumour to go with the "I Know something" bit.

Has Frosties actually posted a rumour?

All he said was that Webb would not be playing this weekend (definate, as seems confirmed by McDermott). Then he said "he could have played his last game for Leeds".

Frosties


[i"Webb wont be back for neither game, and may have played his last game for Leeds, if what I hear is true."[/i

Sounds like a rumour to me.

Maybe he's being sold to Widnes

Well, if it is true, Leeds really need someone with an experienced head in the back-line.

Looking at what we have, this would be an ideal opportunity for Smith who always looked his best in this position. I can't help wondering how much better Smith would have been if we'd let Webb go to Wire all those years ago instead of breaking the salary structure to keep him (all allegedly of course!). Smith could have been England's first choice FB (before the emergence of Tomkins in that position).

If Smith is not the answer I am less convinced by BJB at FB, who looks shaky in the position and generally is best kept on the wing where he can use his pace and footwork to best effect.

If we are going to learn any lessons from what happened to Lee Smith's career I would prefer to keep Hardaker at centre for now. Changing his position to cover injuries every half season can't do his development any favours. In any case, we will just need another centre again. Given the injuries in the back-row the last thing we want to do is move Ablett or Delaney - or God help us - bring back Senior.

If the Bulls do fold and there is some mileage in moving Hardaker to FB (I still think he should stay in the centres) we might want to consider Keith Lulia. More directly Brett Kearney offers a similar skill set to Webb and could do a job as a replacement FB.

I bet Gotcha could knit the fog sufficiently to describe it as something else.

Now, stop posting or you'll cause this shat to creep up to 5 pages.

Lovely stuff.

Like I said, he may have, IF the rumour is true.

The rumour is that Webb has been suspended by the club, whether or not it is true remains to be seen. Its just speculation at the moment until he walks back on the pitch, or it is confirmed.
