No, because like everyone else here I don't actually know anything about them.

982.jpg [quote:1pqtnbtj]Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.[/quote:1pqtnbtj]

The agreement was Leeds had to let the player and Wakefield know they wanted him for next season by midnight on the 31st July. He was always going to be at Wakefield for the remainder of this season though.'"
You're right. He was never coming back to us this year. yesterday was simply the deadline for us stating whether we wanted him next year or not.
All this means is they've extended the deadline until the end of the year and are going to let Kyle commit to which club he wants to play for. Makes sense, why force a player to come back if his heart is elsewhere.
That said, leeds should want Kyle back and they should be convincing him to come back. If I were were I'd want some assurances about where I fit in the prop rotation and from what I've seen he'd certainly be one of Leeds first choice props.

Pretty much spot on. You'd expect them to want him to stay, and let him know.
Of course, this will probably have all been carried out behind closed doors, so he could well be coming back, and the news being held back for a 'rainy day'

The assurances he may seek could be financial. And if this is the case, it's a shrewd move by the club. He's not available to play for clubs other than us or Wakey so presumably any improved contract awarded on the basis of his progression will only need to exceed whatever Wakey, a club alleged to be spending below the cap, can offer which would render us the more attractive financial option. As you point out, he could, quite feasibly, be playing as a frontline prop at a top club next year. And on not much more than wakey would be paying him. Of course it's possible that his loyalties lie with Wakey and we might lose him but this isn't a scenario that's fazed Hetherington in the past.
It could be imagination on my part but don't must of our loaned-out players end up at clubs spending well below the cap?

| The balls in Amor's court. Decision lies with him.
At Wakie he has the assurance of playing week-in week-out.
If he re-joins us not the case.
For him to make that decision he would probably need to know how he would be judged in Leeds 2013 pecking order.
Will be intresting to see how he plays it. If he does come back and doesn't get the game time I can see Leeds releasing him to secure game time.

| I think Amor has taken his chance at Wakefield very well and the experience will have had a positive effect on his development. I would bring him back as I think he looks good enough to challenge for a regular spot in the 17.

| Bring him back, give him a run in the team and then go from there. Some players fit in at one team but not another. This may be the case but without knowledge of how he fits into the team I would not just cast him aside to another super league team.

| i would imagine he has seeked assurances about where leeds see him playing, if he beleieves he will get a decent chance at leeds i think there is a good chance he will stay.
personally would rather see amor than moore and hauraki. also a year playing with peacock and kylie would help him improve.

| Given the obvious lack of faith in him shown by Leeds to date, I'd have no problem with Amor asking for some assurance that he'd be given a fair chance at the starting 17 next season if he returns. If BM and co aren't thinking of him as a very likely first 17 player, then they should tell him and let him make up his mind with full information.

| Could be Leeds waiting to see how this season pans out. A CC and/or GF success will most likely see the current group rewarded with another season which leaves no room for Amor. A Cup Final defeat and early playoff exit might see him reintroduced as part of a supporter-appeasing move from GH along with the exits of one or two fowards.

| Meh, he's a decent player but probably not in the top 20 props in the competition IMO.
Good luck to him whatever he decides to do.

| On current form where would you put JP,Griffin, Moore and Kylie?
Not sure many of those 4 would be in the top 20 either.
Amor is young and has potential and was better than any of our props on Monday again.

So were Raleigh and Wilkes. Are we signing them as well?
