Welcoms aboard indeed ,just waiting for the posts about is he really commited ? I'll trust the judgement of the management .Looking forward to new season now

Well said. Am chuffed with this

Played for Australia 7 times & NSW 13, we’ve pulled off a big signing!

Great signing. Prime player of origin quality, biggest signing we have made this decade, since Buderus.

Even with the 'will he, won't he' thats gone on, I still think he'll be completely committed.
He's the sort of player/bloke who becomes the heart and soul of each team he's in. He's a bit of a joker, but one that brings the group together. I believe he'll instantly become a leader within the group and will throw himself into Leeds and become an integral member of the entire club, he'll be a figurehead - and he can play a bit too. Well pleased with this.
Bring in Tapau too and we've moved from cellar dwellers to serious contenders.

I don’t think the Taupau signing was ever really on the cards TBH

Merrin will bring a lot to our squad and if it was a case of getting shut of Garbutt meant we sign Merrin Im more than happy with that.

This was just the kind of signing we needed probably the replacement we have needed for Peacock for the last 2 years

Still got a number of players available to leave too.

Mullally, Golding, Walters, Ormondroyd at least will leave the club and I think possible two more signings. One being ikahihifo and then hopefully a winger.

Where does this leave us in respect of overseas and NFT players?

One space remaining

What a great signing. I’ve just listened to his interview and he seems a great character. I’m not really bothered about the will he/ won’t he saga - their careers are short so he has to do what’s financially best for him. A 4 year deal to me is commitment! He looks great. I agree we need one more in the pack - i’d take Seb but a dream if Taupau......they do happen!! Well done Leeds for winning the pursuit

I think priority has to be still another couple of quality front rowers or at least one. We do probably need another winger long term but we could live with Handley and juniors filling that role for 2019 and maybe look to get a good one in for 2020.

Great news, I also think we still need one prop at least.
