Rule 1. I am always right.
Rule 2. If in any case I appear wrong, refer to rule 1.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_42170.jpg |

Exactly whats the point in using young players? Sign experienced Aussies who will give quick success! Take wigan and Warrington for example look how well they are doing by signing overated Aussies!  |

Because not all young players will make the grade or are ready for week in week out 1st grade competition at any given point and that is why most teams go for a mix between experience and youth rather than all one or all the other.
Why does the current Leeds squad contain Buderus, Lauitiiti, Leuluai, Donald, Webb and Eastwood when all those positions could be filled with 18 year olds?

The latest is: he speaks to Brian McClennan everyday while the appeal could take four months to hear so Eastwood is likely to take up a one year deal in Aus and Leeds will perhaps try again with him for 2010.
Sounds like the worst of all worlds to me. |

Im not saying NEVER sign an Aussie im saying there is no point in signing one for the sake of it! If there is a shortage of players in a certain position i personally don't think we should just look for an overseas player especially when there is no threat of relegation. the players you mentioned are quality players and not just a quick fix. |

A quick fix can also be a quality player, better than what you have available.
Leeds do nothing... it's good, Leeds do something it's still good. It's all good.
Threat of relegation being removed is something of a red herring when discussing Leeds' recruitment, don't you think? |

It certainly might explain the delay. What day is summer this year? |
