On loan to Hull KR for the 2016 season?

Good for both parties if true

Good move if it happens. Would be difficult to give BOTH Baldwinson and Mulhern decent game time this year so if the latter has managed a loan to a SL club that's very good work.

So no chance of a recall if it's a season long loan?
HKR the new Hunslet?
Good to see JP is having an influence.

Good move as long HKR give him the game time

This has now been rumoured as a permanent deal on our forum

Be very surprised if so. He is highly rated at Leeds and by McDermott. Under contract until 2017 so would incur a fee. Either way it would have been a fee involved due to his age and being club trained at Leeds.

Yes he's gone on a 2 year deal

Surprised by this.He looked to have some real potential the little i saw of him, and he is still very young to make a final decision on a front rower.Of course if the player pushed for it its a different matter, but...

He turned up to training last Monday and there was no kit for him. Somebody at the club had forgot to inform him that he had been released by Leeds. Not a nice way to treat a young player.

Be surprised if Leeds have just released him but who knows. With Jordan cox having left rovers to wire I suspect this is the first bit of damage peacock has done to Leeds since the 2005 grand final.

Why would he have turned up to training when international players are not due back yet? He played for Ireland on 7th November.

I did hear loan deal mentioned but not permanent.

Well miffed if true as he looked to have some real potential.
Was never given the opportunity whilst at Leeds.
I hope he rips it up at HKR and shows Leeds what a mistake they have made.
I thought he was well thought of at Leeds.

But what realistically could Leeds offer him for next year? A loan spell with another club with no guarantee they wouldn't have moved on by the following year? At his age he'd at least want to be in the 25 I would have thought. If he's not then the club 'rating' him is pretty worthless in reality.

I suspect with the Mullally and Galloway signings it was always realistically going to be one of Baldwinson or Mulhern for 2016. Whoever lost out was going to be seventh choice for four spaces in the matchday squad (or probably five until JJB/Ward returns).
