Seems strange if we have signed him as our season has ended and no announcement yet.
Or is Gary waiting for the season tickets date ?

Gary will have the announcement very carefully choreographed in the next few weeks no doubt. I assumed it might have been today however we wouldn't want to steal the thunder off Quasimodo winning Man of Steal and Sam Tomkins winning some made up award just to please Phil Clarke.



As for the Hardaker to Wire rumour, can we not just use our nogging and place that in the same category as Sinfield, Webb, Hall et al going there? Has he been seen buying a house over there yet?

Probably wednesday.

defo headingley bound enjoy him hes a cracker and will standout in a fast/ball playing team.

There's nothing fast about the way our half backs get the ball out to our 3/4 line. They would/could be devasting with better service.

you want to try sitting at kc for a few games lol

If Hall and Briscoe had been our wingers in 2004 and 05 then both would have scored 30 plus tries each
They'll be lucky to get 30 between em next season

So this has come to pass as predicted, will we keep JJB and Ryan? who will be out of the door. I think we are desperate for 2 new pivots, a prop and a hooker.

I have heard a strong rumour from a Wildcats fan who is well connected, that GH is working on a player swop deal with his wife Cath to bring Jason Poore and Paul Aiton to Headingley, not sure who is going the other way, I would hope the old guard and not the young guns.

Who would be the one to be replaced by him? Was BJB a fullback and Hardaker a centre or have I been eating cheese before bed too many times. I cant see Hall moving on nor positions. IF I am correct about previous positions will Ablett just return to the second row and just move the back line round a little.

Show's a lack of ambition from Briscoe chosing Leeds over Wigan. Wigan are a team on the rise while Leeds are clearly on the decline. All their best players are coming to the end of their career.

Wigan giving old Leeds a good pasting last week was a prime example of things to come.

Wigan won the title in 2010 but couldn't back it up.

I don't see last week (and this season) as anything other than a blip in our constant super league dominance and Briscoe knows that.

Wigan backed it up the following year by winning the CC, not remember the 2011 final?

Yes one game defines how the next five years will unfold.

More so how your best players are over the hill, while are development is once again proving strong. Briscoe made a mistake, Leeds were actually lucky last Friday night not to have taken a really good smacking.
Shame how they ended the match with the likes of Bailey and Danny Mags trying to sh&thouse (basically highlighting what sore losers they are.

I like Peacock, but what a spent force he's become in the later half of the season, poor guy was out on his feet against Wigan. Shame thou how he has no respect for the bench not coming off when he's told to. His lack of respect and arrogance clearly got in the way there.

I just hope you keep playing Sinfield in the halves, probably the most overrated player on the planet, just sad to think he'll be England's 6.
