| I wonder if they view Leeming as a long term project and we can get him now. I expect Dwyer to go end of next season and we bring in a controlling experienced 9 to compliment Leeming. But you never know if we do bring in Leeming he may turn out great hes only young so lots of expected improvement ahead. I believe hudds fans rate him quite highly

From the Huddersfield forum
Quote: Trebor1 "What let a home grown player, with leadership qualities, and great ability. A potential England no9, who’s one of the best 9s we’ve had in a long number of years go to a rival for a bit of cash? We don’t need the money- but we need players like him who will give his all for his hometown club- not the money!!!
If we get a bit of money for him how would we spend it? We still have to stick within the cap so would only be able to pay a player a similar amount. So who could we get- as good and pay the same amount in salary?
He’s exactly the kind of player we should be building around. Not shipping off.
Or as we like to say on here “let go”'"

I said this before about Leeming and nobody agreed! He isn’t a structured Hooker, someone who can kick from dummy half or provides a platform! We don’t need another headless chicken explosion, I like Dwyer sometimes, he’s great from broken play and defences and rolling, but we seriously need structure! Personally I would have kept Lunt to nurture Johnson through, instead of paying for someone we don’t really want!

He’s younger though so still learning. I would have thought if it was true that Dwyer would be part of the deal, so as you were. Personally think we need a different type of hooker though.

I think he is a better option than the other two right now.

So the plan maybe to have Johnson has the starting nine in 12 months and then use Learning(if he signs) as the impact nine.Dwyer only has 12 months left which could be his last at Leeds.

Fair to say there was not much movement before

| Wow, is Johnson so good that he is a nailed on success to be? Genuine question. Cam Smith had huge raps out of academy, but hasn't (yet) managed to transfer it to first team imo.
We're putting a lot of faith in what is obviously a very good academy prospect.

Putting faith in very good academy prospects is exactly what we should be doing tho surely?

I agree with you Marty but I wouldn't be surprised if Corey played a season on DR at Fev to prepare him for 2021 when his chance must surely come when Dwyer is out of contract.
He definitely needs to play mens footy for 2020 and at the best level he can

I agee Biff but ge also needs SL exoerience and in my opinion the target should be to get him around 10 SL ganes off the bench to prepare him for the year after.
On the subject of Dwyer, Luke Gale paid a lot of money for a hair transplant. One month with Dwyer as his 9 and he will have pulled it all out!!!!
