Im happy to wait it out for the right player in ANY position whether that be a prospect ,a genuine decent seasoned pro or a top class Marquee player.

This will probably come back to bite me, but I’d say we can afford to wait for the right ones now. We should be away from short-term/desperation signings, I think we’ve successfully wrestled the initiative back over a couple if tough seasons.

As soon as our form picks up, it becomes a virtuous circle and quality players want to play for Leeds again. Players want to win trophies.

Well that's jinxed it!

I know but this squad really should be top half of the table now. That was the form more towards the end of last season. Suddenly we have a few international-ish quality players again and a keen, young squad with talent. Who knows!

Sometimes you have to make stop gap signings.Playing kids who are not ready can be disastrous for their career.

Playing not good enough players at the expense of them, can also be disastrous for their career.

It can be but we don't know whether Evans will fall into that category yet. If he does then you don't play him.

I wasn't specifically referring to an individual player. It was a general statement.

Quite obvious that majority of NRL players are,at present,seeing clubs like Saints Wigan Wire Hull as a better option.Have Leeds got a bad name in terms of looking after overseas players in recent years? Have Leeds made a mistake in letting Sinfield do all the player deals? Yes,Hetherington maybe took his eye off the ball and stayed too loyal to players already at the club,plus he had a wage structure that he was against changing but he did have an eye for a decent player from overseas.

Nonsense

Couple more on the way to bulls I’m told, permanent and loans.

Any clues on who for the loans and perms?

I was told today Muizz Mustapha is the other one going over permanently. Corey Johnson and Tom Holroyd over on loan.

Letting Muizz go permanently is a mistake imho as was Trout

huge mistake
