Singleton has impressed and shown he can handle SL no problem.I would think he has put himself infront of Moore in the pecking order and would also like to think he has shown he has more to offer than Kirke but wether the Coaching team see it that way i guess we will see over the next couple of months.

I think the coaching staff are already starting to see singleton before Kirke and Moore before he got injured he was further up the pecking order than both of them and I think he will be again when he returns

The chances of four prop forwards in their mid thirties all being fit at the same time are minimal.

Leeds coach Brian McDermott added: "As someone who has come through our academy system, he is a player that our youngsters can look towards and see that the rewards are there for you if you work hard."

is that a thinly veiled parting shot at the lads headed for NZ?

Don't you actually need to have performed for Leeds at some stage to 'qualify'?

Because everything in the NRL is AMAZING

Baldwinson and Tonks are highly unlikely to get near first grade next year - just like Daniel Smith, who hasn't even played open age reserves. It will be interesting to see how great they think it is after a year in the U20s. If I understand it correctly, they're on one year deals with options to extend for a further year. I wouldn't be surprised if one/both returned to England in 2015.

I would not be surprised if they come back to Leeds - Having gained experience down under

Also wants to be Leeds' best player. Classic Bailey.
So contract sorted can crack on now. His season hasn't really got started with a couple of injuries and suspension, he'll be fit soon and can get back to his best for the run in. He will need to if he's going to bully Steve mac to select him for World Cup.

Nine years is a long intermission since his last meaningful international appearance in the 44-4 loss to Australia at Elland Road in 2004. Forget McNamara, it's Sinfield who is in charge of England these days. Bullying and harassment of the smaller bloke therefore seems an inappropriate strategy on this occasion.

Anyone really believe bailey was offered anything in the NRL??
I certainly don't.

Although he does seem to have improved from what I've seen of him lately. Always thought he could have been world class but never seemed to have reached his potential.

He was definitely offered a deal from at least 1 nrl team I believe

Turned Brisbane down, among others.
