My point was he might be the difference between us being down there and actually being bottom.

Right now I'd bite your hand off for an 11th place finish come end of year.

And fair do's for that. I am sure a lot of Leeds fans would feel the same as you. But for Leeds to have not done the deal, would probably have done more damage than doing the deal. So its Just battle on.

There is much more to player transfers than just what we see out on the field once a week for 80 mins.

If you're threatened by relegation, yes you want the best players you can but you've seen how far side like London are going on team spirit and togetherness.

If I was doing it uber-tough as a player I'd want to know my mates were in the trenches with me and all pulling in the same direction, on and off the field.

Look what Bradford did to us in the cup if you want evidence. Man for man a worse side than Leeds on paper, but RL is played on a pitch.

Looking like bad luck for Parcell maybe out for the season with a shoulder injury.Of he requires surgery he'll be out for four months.

So long as they don’t try and recall Lunt?

Feel sorry for the lad if true.

Don’t think they can IIRC

I don't think they can

Yep
nobody wants to see a player injured.

Yes he’s been a good player for us even if he ended up not seeing eye to eye with Leeds.

Permanent move now confirmed

Not much sentiment in Rhinos official statement (unlike the Goulding announcement).

I thought the same. No thanks or anything for Parcell. I wouldnt have thought he was much of a trouble causer behind the scenes.

Time to finally get this hooking position sorted. Top quality needed.

I seem to recall previous posts suggesting he was a troublemaker-before Agar started to sort things out.

I recall rumours of something similar coming out of Manly when he left there for us. No smoke and all that.
