Rhinos laptop and kit which was to be auctioned for charity stolen from a member of our back room staff home in halifax.

States that our prepereations will be significantly hampered against wire. There were several memory sticks stolen which had data used to assist how to train.

Looks like we will have to go back to "old school" prepereations for the weekend

You have to wonder why a company like Leeds Rugby or whatever aren't centrally storing all this information. Had the laptop hard drive died, or a memory stick formatted, at quite possible you would have lost all this information anyway.

To not have backups and central storage is ridiculous.

You not watching the latest series of Dallas then?

The only copy of incriminating evidence to be used to blackmail John Ross was kept in Bobby's safe on a two dime memory stick, which he then accidentally wiped clean after unwittingly importaing a virus by opening an E-mail of a dog (or was it a tattooed squirrel) that JR had sent him.

Possibly the most ridiculously weak plot line since Bobby emerged after spending a year in the shower but shows how these things are easily done.

What baffled me was why the hell he kept it in his car overnight. You're just asking for trouble.

You would be very surprised how many stupid people there are out there and what they actually do.

A neighbour left his engine running to warm his car up and was shocked when he returned 10 minutes later to find his gone

I thought that. But we're all guilty of being lazy after a hard days work. Good thing the club coming out publicly as its almost worthless now. I hope it's recovered soon as a lot of time & effort has gone into setting up the database for the good of the club.

The thieves broke into Hunwicks home during the night, stole the keys to his car and a Leeds Rhinos rucksack containing a laptop and GPS equipment used to monitor the players fitness.

...sounds like the laptop was stolen from the house when they took they keys.

All Data should be on Central Network Storage and VPN should be used to access it remotely.

It's 2013 Rhinos, get with the year 2000!

I'll do it for them if they want

Ay, you wouldn't believe it but some people don't even read reports properly

As I understand it the data would generally be backed up/stored centrally but it was stolen the night after coming back from Catalans so they hadn't had chance to get in to store/back it up.

Incidentally, I firmly believe its the money spent by the club on top quality backroom staff like Jason Davidson and Richard Hunwicks that helps keep us at the top.

Quote: Ferdy "I blame my sky sports app on my phone on it just says it was stolen from his car!!!!'" According to this Leeds article www.therhinos.co.uk/m/news/20126.php it looks like it was in a bag in his house to me, but I suppose could be read either way.

Its the "also" bit in the sentence "in the car they also stole..." That made me think it was in there. If not then fair enough. He has my forgiveness

tvoc to the rescue? Put in the call Brian!
