Quote: Bulliac "I think all the talk of Les coming back as a winger seems to be ignoring the fact that currently he plays in the forwards at union so will almost certainly not have been doing any speed training. It would be very very difficult for him to regain even some of the pace that made him so formidable before he left(I think we can assume he still has the bulk
He's been a winger in all of his union career, it may seem like he's been in the forwards as he often get brought into rucks he's not been in a lineout or scrum. He may not be scoring the tries he was doing in league and lost a bit of pace but he can still run through and bounce off defenders with ease and is still Gloucester's first choice winger. What im am saying is he is not completely spent and does still have a lot to offer, Lesley as a forward would be very appealing. I don't know what he would class as quota wise but I don't think any superleage club can afford him TBH and see him playing union in south of France next

We didn't get rid if he had wanted to stay the Club would have kept him on, but he got a very good offer from Glaws and the Bulls got some money for releasing him from his contract early, he went with every ones blessing fans included. So he wasn't got rid off at all. He is still very much a Bulls Icon whom most would love to see around the Club but not as a player again!

Quote: Bully_Boxer "You would assume that he must not count on any quota otherwise we wouldn't be in a position to even consider him.'"

well he was playing in superleague before the new quota rules came in, in feb 2007 so he'd qualify to become fed trained on that count ( assuming it doesnt matter that hes since left league - that bits unclear in rules). cant remember if he was classed as a kolpak though or whether him qualifying to play for England RU would exempt him form quota.

Would be a decent impact player to have available but dont think we could rely on him to play 80 minutes every week and as others have said his defence would probably be a worry.

No nostalgia or rose tinted spectacles here. Obviously I would expect the club to conduct a medical and check on his fitness in May but if he had passed that then I say take a gamble on him. I agree he probably won't be as good a player as the one that left, but it isn't as though we have 2 good wingers already!! Reardon will go well but I'd feel happier with Les and Rikki competing for the other spot.

As Macca stated the deal would have to be right, I presume by that he means we wouldn't be offering big money to bring him back. As I stated earlier I am sure he'd get bigger offers so it would depend on where Les wanted to spend his final couple of seasons.

Id have him back, he's always had dodgy knee's but still managed between 20 and 30 tries a season. Les always said he would comeback to Bradford, hopefully he will.
