Well down on form this year but could be a very good player if he gets his mojo back.
FWIW I just wish all SL sides were out more for quality than quantity. Yet another 'solid' pro from the NRL is not what any side should be looking for IMO.

He is bloody garbage but lets face it, Leeds supporters will cream themselves, after all when he pulls on the Blue and Amber his will be better than anything ever to walk onto a RL playing field.
Anyway as long as they put prices up at the dump that is Headingley I will be happy, maybe one day the chavs and scumbags will be priced out of the game.

| So what happens to Watkins, Ratu and Gibson?
Release a good young British player and sign an average Aussie.  |

We aren't Wigan though. Gibson is supposedly off to Cas and lets face it, he's had his chances and it hasnt worked at Leeds. Watkins and Ratu are still young and coming through the ranks. Also throw in the fact Senior hasnt got long left now and may start playing more in the pack next season thus allowing ratu and Watkins to contend for the centre spot. Also isn't Ratu also a winger? Lets also not forget we are losing a great centre in Lee Smith to the raa raas so the youngsters still have a place

| Quote: BrisbaneRhino "The only logic I can see behind the signing of a lump of lard like Brett Delaney is that Leeds genuinely want/expect Watkins/Ratu whoever to become first choice centres and want someone who can slot in as required due to injuries.. Delaney is solid but that really is about it, and TBH the sort of signing that NO SL side should be making. I really can't understand it if its not something to do with being able to gradually bring say Ratu and Watkins on as first choice centres.
And yes, I've seen him play several times live, and have absolutely nothing positive to say about him otherwise - he's the sort of player you just don't notice.'"
But I thought everything NRL was special, and way above super league?
They guy was offered a 4 year contract to stay on at the current 3rd best NRL side. Thats a long contract for a nobody. |

Wrong Brett as has been pointed out earlier but there is an interesting link to another story that says Karmichael Hunt is going over to play Aussie Rules.
That will be more of a concern to the NRL, in my view, than defections to RU.

I'll reserved final judgement until he plays for Leeds, although the signs are not looking good.
Perhaps one positive is that given the general poor quality of backs in SL (where Senior is still considered one of the top 3 centres), he may still ending up standing out as a good player. George Carmont never set the world on fire in the NRL and was not loved by the Newcastle fans but he nevertheless proved a canny signing by Wigan.
However, I'd prefer us to be doing more to improve the forward pack than signing backs for which we have adequate cover with Watkins, Ratu and Coady. The fact that Eastwood did not materialise this season has been a massive hindrance IMO, especially considering that Leuluai, Burgess, Bailey, JJB, Ablett and Kirke haven't really been on top form. Peacock needs a quality partner in the forwards, and hasn't had one since Ellis left.

Rhinos chief executive Gary Hetherington confirmed: "He is a player we are interested in."
I take it this means we have not officially signed him yet, but feel the need to slag off a player who has
a. Yet to try his hand in SL or
b. We have not actually signed yet?
