GH has done some wonderful things with Leeds, but that self-aggrandising, arrogant piece in the YEP was poor.

To argue you’re still beyond reproach after your recruitment decisions have left us in relegation battles three years from the last four is an insult.

I understand wanting to defend himself, and he's right in some regards - Sutcliffe in 2016 was the hope at 6 for example.

But some poor signings should never have been made, particularly the overseas duds. We should never have gone near Falloon and Galloway was the dictionary definition of a plodder, not an adequate replacement for Peacock or Leuluai. As for Tui...

If he was honest he'd also admit junior development has utterly failed as well.

He must have realised at some stage that the squad needed major surgery just like it did when he arrived in 97. Maybe he found it easier to see someone else's squad was rubbish than the one he put together?

GH does say the signings have been mixed and I definitely agree that Galloway was never going to replace Peacock.On the youth policy that's hard at times to achieve when you have ready made players I front of them.The ones who have come through have been in general a success.

Reynolds the next name off the rank?

You want another reserve halfback from the Tigers? That went so well last time...

I don’t think I said that? no, Just that it had been reported. Not to mention he actually is a half back for a start with a reputation a little better than Lolohea.

who do you want us to sign at half back?

Reynolds at least like Merrin is an ex-Origin player

Reynolds is not a good halfback. If you want mediocrity he's your man. He last played origin 5 years ago.

I've no idea who's available except Maloney has said he wants to play in england.

But I do know Reynolds sucks.

If we do sign Maloney I hope it's not longer than a 2 year deal with maybe a 1 year option in the club's favour.

Even that would be pushing it for someone at his stage in career on the kind of money he'd want.

However, he is quality and would improve our side considerably if he can stay fit. Would also be great to have around for the younger players - we need some real class around the place for the lads to look up to I think.

I think he's gone on record saying if he came to SL it would have be a 2/3 year deal.

2 years is fine.

We just need him!
