| Leeds don't sign ex St Helens players as a rule - once you ignore Eddie Cunningham, Gary Moorby and George Mann and anymore I've conveniently forgotten.

Tut tut, should be immortalised for his length of the field try versus his former club!

| I'm not sure any panic buying is needed. As a top club we should always be alert to the possibility of the right player arriving for the right price, whether that's a reasonably priced squad player or a more costly star player. If there's an opportunity to add something to the current squad, we should grab it. If there's nothing available better than we've already got, then there's really no point.
I would be nervous about banking on a full season from JP next year to be honest. The coaching staff need to decide whether the young lads coming through provide ample cover. If so, no action needed unless there's a really good deal to be done. If not, then that might be somewhere to look at boosting the squad.
Likewise, replacing Senior will be tough, so there may be no harm in starting to look around now. Although again, next year would be a good opportunity to start moulding Watkins into his successor if the coaches think he's going to be the future.

He never played for Saints, and anyone in Sunt Hellins will deny they even know the name of Gary Connolly? "Who the ***k is that?"

Did we sign Eddie Cunningham from Saints or did they sign him from us?

| Not sure why the heck we'd need another second row even without Eastwood. We have Ablett, JJB, Clarkson, Lauti'iti and Pitts. If we are looking to sign anyone it ought to be a prop, as within a year or so we're probably going to have to replace both Peacock and Leuluai.
I also wouldn't bother with a centre. Watkins has shown enough to be worth a go as first reserve for that role with a view to eventually taking over from Senior. We still have Lee Smith who can cover there as well.

| Quote: LeedsPokerGuru "I always say your forwards determine how many points you concede and your backs how many points you score.
With that being said I think we need to improve on the scoring part. Our stats this season vs last back that up. Wigans look comparable to our 2009 though.
We lack the spark in the 3/4 we've been used to over the years. Remember the deep line breaks what happened to those? Everything pretty much comes through Danny. There's no point going out and signing another do a job delaney just for the sake of it but if quality is/was available we should have a look. Maybe Wakins can provide said spark he still needs to have his full "fringe" year a la Smith and Hall had.
I think CC final highlights that in the fact that King and Atkins are a better combo than we have, in fact best combo in the league?
Forwards I'm less worried about but if someone becomes available then so be it. If JJB and Ali can find some decent form for next year they'll be like new signings. Ambler, Amour get a more important role.'"
