I'm just not sure Aiton and poore are of the required quality.
Leeds recent recruitment has been so hit and miss. You have gems like delaney and hardaker.....but then you have the likes of ben cross, griffin, micheal coady, vickery et al.
It seems for every 3/4 players leeds sign, only 1 is decent or adds anything to the team. We've signed briscoe, so it looks like that's our lot for quality signings this season.
This is at a time when signing the right players is vital, we can't be making so many mistakes with recruitment when we have so many legends entering the twilight of their career.
If we sign aiton and poore all i see happening is they play a few times at first, are average. We then persist with what we currently have 80% of the time, these guys have cameos, maybe they are loaned out, then they just sign permanently for the team we've loaned them to.

My concern would mainly centre around, what's the point in bringing in an hooker, when we will only player Burrow or Sinfield there anyway, as they have to be on the pitch at all times, seeminly our coaches view.'"
It's my only concern about Aiton's credentials.
I have lots of other concerns about a range of social, political and economic issues. This just didn't seem like the place for them.
I'm holding on to them til Last Son of Wigan comes back. |

| Quote: GARFORTH LAD "Strong rumour coming out of the Wildcats that GH working on a player swop deal, which will see Jason Poore and Paul Aiton to Headingley. Not sure who will be going the other way but I hope it is the old guard and not the young guns!! we also need 2 pivots from somewhere in my view. ![]()
Any mileage in this rumour and is it likely to happen? Are Moore and McShane the players going the other way?

| Quote: El Diablo "Aiton looks a decent athlete, and his tackle stats seem good.
My only concern is about his ability to direct the play around the park and solve our ongoing issue with distribution from DH, which isn't really Burrow's strength and which McShane seems unable to actually get to DH often enough to be a really effective option.
Haven't seen that much of Aiton, what do Wakey fans make of his actual Dummy Half play?'"
Having watched Aiton for the last 2 years;fantastic defender,great determination, hard as nails but poor distribution, no kicking game and unable to direct play. |

That'll be next time that Wigan get to both finals and Leeds get to none.
Can you wait that long?  |

What's the latest on GH's plan for a player exchange wth Wakefield?Twitter says Poore wants to go back home and Salford want Aiton and Kirmond? |

The most likely to go would be Aiton or Poore if a player was to be offered , we would be downright daft to let Kirmond go for anything other than an massively huge fee.

I think Kirkmond may be sold to the highest bidder whatever the price may be |

If you end up with Aiton , Poore or especially kirmond just after Kath starts at Wakey then serious questions need to be asked by the rfl . Even when she was at Hull I couldn't get my head round the fact that man and wife could own 2 seperate teams in the same league .

She doesn't own Wakefield, she isn't even an employee. She is advising as a consultant. Nothing for the RFL to have any interest in. |
