latest rumour that i have heard is that leeds are sniffing around ryan atkins. (friend who works at headingley carnegie has seen him entering with hetherington a few times in last month), i personally cant see this happening as he is still under contract and would cost a lot of money. would be a good partnership with hall if it did happen tho.

Does Kath know?

Didnt know anything about Achurch although I hadnt spoken to my contact for a few weeks so he may have known I have asked him about the Amor thing possibly being as part of sum kinda deal for Briscoe but he said the same as you about Briscoes next club being an NRL so I dont know. The only other thing he told me was that Lunt was definately staying with us but just assumed everybody has taken that as granted.

I will be speaking to him regularly from now on and anything he tells me regarding signings I will be posting asap

This is true we have been speaking to Atkins alltho not positive that we have managed to aquire his services for next year

Fielden was [isupposed[/i to go to the NRL, but bottled it - as did Pryce.

Just because someone expresses an interest doesnt mean they are certain to do so.

Any moves in the top 8 will probs be withheld until that club loses in the playoffs - conflict of interests and all.

Hope it does come off, would be a great addition but do think we might be priced out of the move. He is a Leeds lad and a rhinos fan tho so hopefully it's swings in our favour

All this was mentioned before when he'd actually agreed to sign until Moran waved the ££££££ under his nose the rest is history.

Are we after Luke Gale?

thought he was giants bound

So thats how who League Express were hinting at today....

What did the league express say I didn't see it ?

A club very close to odsal are looking at kopczak and gale.

Bet it's dem der dudley hill mob again.

Don't you need the club's permission to talk to a player if he is still under contract? I hope it's true but Atkins was suppose to join us from Wakefield and at the last minute Warrington outbid us!

On twitter yesterday someone mentioned that Brian McD had said there was room for one other signing after Achurch.

I'd be very surprised if Atkins left us. By all accounts he loves it at Warrington.

Also recently signed a new long term deal. Would cost a fortune if he did leave us.

Granted he is a Leeds fan but he made a commitment to Warrington when he relocated straight away when joining us.
Doesnt mean much as he could move again.

ps you do need permission but nothing to say it doesnt happen.
