That Leeds romped to their third title in a row effectively without Buderus for most of the season shows how little they needed him.
Money better spent elsewhere on British talent? The reason I mention it is because it sticks out as such a non-Leeds type signing when you consider what the club has been built on recently.

So why did Leeds extend Leuluai's deal to the end of 2011?

If you're interested the sequence of Leeds' overseas signings (and extensions) for 2010 can be seen in the final post rlhererl when this was last discussed.
The shame is the re-signing of Donald may have now cost one or more of Jones-Bishop and Broughton their chance at Leeds.

That's a peculiar way to run the Champion club, using a limited overseas trained quota spot like that.'"
You are of course spot on tvoc. But you wont convince the biggest hypocrite on these boards, as it does not fit the agenda.

A signing you craved.

I would suggest that a run of injuries and failure to particularly cement a place when he had the opportunity has cost Ashley Gibson and potentially forced Leeds to recruit in that area, rather than the other way around.

Now this us just my opinion, burderus was our best player last season, the freak leg brake put an end to that but he was awesome. he is truley world class still!

| The Pennine ARLFC League is arguably one of the strongest amateur leagues in the country, yet I keep reading Bradford doesn't have the service area that Leeds does?
I would hazard there are more amateur clubs, with a decent youth set up, within a 5 minute drive from Odsal than there are from Headingley.

Gibson wasn't up to the required standard at Leeds after his injury problems as was evident from his 2009 appearances, a view seemingly supported by McClennan's selections. I wish him well at Salford.
Watkins wasn't ready to being over-exposed at 1st grade level in 2009, a view seemingly supported by McClennan's selections. I still think (as I've stated all along) that he is Senior's heir apparant over the course of the 2010 season if he continues to develope, keeps his feet on the ground and works on his game.
Delaney is Toopi's replacement at right centre and was a position Leeds needed to address sooner or later. I'll reserve judgement until I've seen him play unlike some.
Having signed him I would have not retained Donald, stayed within the spirit of the RFL's overseas trained quotas, saved the club some money and promoted one of Jones-Bishop/Broughton (or a combination of both) into the 1st grade squad for 2010.
I actual support the Academy players but they have to earn their chance and keep earning their place once given their chance.

Most of the clubs in that league are outside the Bradford service area
A five minute drive from Odsal takes you into the Halifax service area in one direction and the Hudders one in the other. A ten minute drive from Odsal takes you into the Leeds service area.
HTH.
