Giants club have acted impeccably throughout this sorry tale and trust that they will make the right decisions with regard to any replacement at the right time.
Real shame this has happened after he performed so well for England following return from injury - was looking forward to seeing him play for the Giants injury free - now will be the pantomime villain and trust the Giants players use this as motivation to return to being the top Yorkshire club again.
All sorted now and trust the matter has had a team strengthening impact on the squad.
COYG!!!'"
Wondered why Mr hetherington was quiet about "role models" on this one. It seems only if someone signs for a rival is morality in question......
Worst outcome for giants bar us giving him away IMO.
Hey-ho- nothing changes. |

he will be referring to when we finished the top yorkshire team in the league table standings after the normal rounds, we finished above you in the league for a few years?
not reached the grand final but been in quite a few semi finals in playoff games aswell.
we had that run of wins against leeds too previously in the league comp. |

Somewhere in the dust of time rest the bones of the Galilean
He who was spat upon. He whose face was marred beyond all human likeness
Somewhere buried among the lies of the past rests the tomb of Yeshua
Of he who was made God in a world without Hope.
And when this son of Joseph is found. What then will the Church of Rome say?
Prepare yourself for the day is coming. And men will say
"Blessed are the wasted lives who perished in the flames of the holy war": |
|
| Quote: sgtwilko "When in anyone's right mind have you been the top club in yorkshire this century?'"
The 8 years prior top 2009 which was the year Leeds equalled our 7 Championships. Or have you forgotten that 7 of Leeds League titles have come in the last 12 years?
The funny thing about the past is, it's the past. Everything from 1 second ago is the past, you can't just pick and choose which bits you want to count to suit your argument. |

could it be in the starts that we now get sam Burgess.
Heavily linked with Leeds. Cannot fit him under slary cap at the Rabbitohs.
Need somewhere for him to play until next season.
Only obstacle was he has just get married and would not want his new wife around Ferres who has now gone.
Save £150 k on the salary cap make Burgess our marquee signing.
Sam gets his wife pregnant. 9 months later season ends back to OZ and nana Burgess looks after the newborn.
I tell ya i feel it in my water

Run leroy , run !.... And he did - twice - and we partied hard...:Black Backgrounds/Statler.gif |
|
|
He is undoubtedly a class player...but life goes on....and we managed without him last season.
Would imagine Ken might wait until season starts before spending the money , when people in teams start seeing the pecking order. We won't panic buy.
Will miss his toughness and probably won't help our soft pack reputation/ no enforcers etc. Not sure if rapira or hincliffe add that.
Serious question - but assuming no clause in the contract he would not face us? It could end up being a rather nasty encounter that both clubs would like to avoid.

run leroy its a transfer not a loan . as replacement now is they time its a short season before you know it its top 8 play off time. any one coming from nrl would need work permeates ect which takes time, anyone who is any good over here are already signed up i would look at getting furgerson back from Bradford if fit .getting rid of fairbank also looks like a mistake

2 tries and 2 assists and 1 red in 2015? I doubt you'd find anyone who wouldnt be unhappy to see him go but maybe his recent international form is fresh in the mind. He's played a small amount of games recently for us so as a result we won't miss what we haven't had much of.
Hinchcliffe is going to be massive for us if you've seen anything of him last season, hopefully Rapira will be playing his part too, as good as ferres was he's gone on account of his own choices, life goes on. |

Sure you will miss ferres but both rapira and hinchcliffe are tough players. |

Ever so slightly off topic but kinda relevant, Huby, heard he's out for 8 weeks for a hand injury...not causing poop as my club have faced similar shenanigans in the last 6 months...

Gary Hypocrite Hetherington changed his tune then?Mr Hetherington changed his tune it seems
"We'd be appalled if his application was granted because it would damage the integrity and profile of Super League," after trying to block Catalans signing Todd Carney
He also had the following to say after trying to block Catalans signing Gregg Bird
"It is disappointing that a club should want to sign him," Hetherington said at the time.
"Our competition cannot become a dumping ground for other people's problems."

Mind you Leeds fans kept tellong me Ferres was e when at the Giants, amazing what a change of shirt colour can do |
