On paper yes....without a doubt.

Leeds's recent success has been built on not signing the 'big stars' of yesteryear's mistakes....however a the moment the present policy aint looking so successful either. A tricky one. I guess it depends on whether you want to better try salvaging this season by signing Brough (no guarantees) or be more patient for the better good of future seasons. Maybe a combination of Golding and McGuire at HB might just do the job.

This is the biggest load of sh-te I've heard in a while.

We will never sign a cretin like Brough.

Let's just struggle along with a clueless, overhyped no hoper like Sutcliffe then!

One for the scrap book.

Jolly good. I'd love to know where all the hype comes from.

Not sure why Sutcliffe has become the prime focus of Leeds' clueless season to date. The prime focus should be at half-back/1 St receiver. Even the coach appeared to recognise that after the win V Huddersfield, McGuire can't get back soon enough to steady the ship.

Our problems are much bigger than a young HB still learning in a team struggling for confidence ,structure ,Leadership and a Coaching set up who have been exposed now their "go to get out of jail plan" of JP kicking off and Sinfields on field nous has gone!
As for your erection for Brough how's he doing this year at the Giants?

I too don't understand why Sutcliffe is getting so much flack. If the pack gave his some kind of platform that'd be a start. Whilst I don't personally see him as a 6 he's all we've got at the moment and he's a lot on his plate. Whilst Brough might be a (very) short term solution I'd sooner we didn't bother

Nothing to worry about. I doubt he's coming to us. Strong(er) rumours that he's off back to Hull FC

Are you kidding or something, just to defend him? We are higher than our oppossition each game for metres made from the pack. Have you seen how many times this lad continually runs into the defence and takes the tackle? surely you are not suggesting the pack are at fault for that? Many times we have an overlap and he chooses not to pass. His tackling on top of this is absolutely woeful. I suggest you watch him personally next time.

Bullsh##! Its far from many times he has an overlap 2/3 times max it was on yesterday but no more than the ones Zak or Burrow have butchered on many more occasions.
In virtually EVERY game it's blatant the plan is pass to Burrow or Zak on 5th and how many times has he got it when it's been a hospital ball on the 5th or even yesterday on 2 occasions he went at the line and had a chance of an offload with no support whatsoever.
Also with our complete lack of structure how many quality options has he or Lilley had in a set of 6?
He's made mistakes it will happen he's still learning but it'd help if he actually had help and some structure/leadership around him he more than proved it last year give him the tools and he's more than capable.

Spot on. In most of our games we've had enough field position near the opposition line to score anywhere between 12-24 more points than we have done yet we haven't and it mostly falls on poor play from Sutcliffe and Burrow.

on a side note, anybody see the try scored by Cas last night off the beautiful, but simple little dab through near the line by Luke Gale? we seem to never take this option near the line, so frustrating because when executed it at least leads to repeat sets and more pressure or even a lovely try like last night.Our last play options have been absolute dire for weeks now and it looks like nothing is being done to rectify it.

I'd put Zak in there before Sutcliffe every time especially when he consistently runs sideways taking any kind of space Moon or Watkins would have should he pass.
As for Burrow he IGNORES 99% of the plays either Sutty/Lilley are trying call or the move we have set up for.
