I would say Kylie was this type of player and he did a fantastic job for us. We have never replaced that type of go forward in the pack.

He was the closest we have had recently although the thing I remember kylie for was punishing defence rather than offence

I agree. Not a barnstormer type, but brutal in defence. I remember SF of challenge cup few years back v Saint’s. Mosoe came on and had been running through defences for fun. Ran straight a Kylie first hit up. Don’t think he carried again rest of the game!

I really like Kyle, absolute rock in D and had some skill with the ball at times.

Kyle’s a Leeds legend . Ali was the most exciting forward I’ve ever seen. Not particularly tough but was huge, and the best hands I’ve ever seen....,
Wow imagine a club signing two players like Brent Webb and Ali these days!

Another desperate old expensive Aussie signing for you, how the mighty Whinos have fallen

KingRoss sounds like the username a mature well reasoned, intelligent board contibutor would choose. I wasnt disappointed.

Has Sinfield been with Eng/GB since before the World Cup 9's? Does that explain the lack of activity?

I thought Sinfield was relinquishing his RFL role and any other role he may have when he re-joined Rhinos?

It feels like we are rushing into desperate signings again rather than planning what we need early in the season and getting the best options possible. Surely, when we sold Parcell we ought to have decided whether we required a new hooker for next season at that point to give us as much opportunity to recruit a new hooker as soon as possible. We ought to have known when signing Lunt whether it was just to the end of the season or for further seasons too.

I'm not sure there is an actual plan....worrying times.

Just because it's not in the public domain doesn't mean the club having got a solid plan in place.

We'll have to wait and see, however I'm still happier with the squad even as it is over what we started with last year.

1. Walker
2. Briscoe/Brisco
3. Newman
4. Hurrell
5. Handley
6. Lui
7. Gale
8. Ava
9. Dwyer
10. Crosby
11. Martyn
12. Ward
13. Merrin

14. Oledski
15. Cuthbertson
16. Mellor
17. Smith/Mclelland/Sutcliffe

Is IMO better than what we started with last year, however I do think we will see a prop and hooker signed before the season but then that will be it.

Agree Christopher better squad than this time last year and a couple more to come I would guess!

It’s good to know that should any club require a new CEO/DOR or Coach we have lots of very able candidates on this board.

Best post I've read in ages. Made me spit my tea across the room.
