Awesome.
Know your stuff don't you.
Good job we have Dave Halley, Steve Crossley et al to illustrate we're really where it's at given we have far less amateur clubs to pop at compared to London.
Oh I've done it again...

Half of me thinks Mac will do a good job and surprise a lot of people; the other half thinks he will be another Macca (or Jimmy Lowes - all from the same shed).
From what I have seen and heard, I would expect him to do a better job than Macca in the same circumstances. I'm not sure whether he's likely to be in the Maguire category though. But I'll not ridicule the appointment - it might just prove to be quite enlightened.

Who's McDermott brought through at Quins who has "real talent"?'"
Is Google that bit too difficult to use?

I know what real talent is, I'm not sure you do, which is why I asked.
I like the sarcastic evasion of the questions though. Well done.

Given your "form", evidently not.

My pleasure. Works in tandem with your irony and similar inability to address a previous point and respond with a mind-blowing "Wow".
But then you will know more than GH obviously, who made the appointment to very clearly place his club in eternal decline. Because he does things like that ya see. Nor will he have consulted the likes of Peacock, Sinfield or Senior regarding Maccas coaching. No, he just wouldn't do that. He should have listened to an internet forum moderator. Because that's where it's really at.

| Nice snide comment at the end there. Good stuff.
Still evading the questions I see.

| Isn't this thread getting just like another one recently where we were told unequivocally to avoid the personal digs and keep on topic?

Yep I do.
Halley and Crossley are also mediocre. Weve still got a fair few Bradford produced internationals in in all grades though. Which isn't bad to say our local amatuer game isnt that good. But if Londons is so soooooper dupppper, where is the talent? Hit me with them?

Apologies to everyone concerned!
As I stated earlier, it's going to be an interesting season.
Despite arguments to the contrary I think Leeds are going to struggle a bit as they go through the next few years. Their golden generation is getting older and will take some replacing. They also have a coach who hasn't really proven himself (IMHO of course). The kids coming through may come good but don't look as good as the likes of McGuire, Burrow, Sinfield, Bailey, Diskin etc at the same age.
Of course I could be wrong, but I would be surprised to see Leeds finish higher than 4th next year.

Ah right, good job we had some players in the 4 nations then isn't it and Quins didn't.
Oh bollox, I've done it again. Must be that time of the month.
