No doubt it wont happen, we never manage to get the good players, just like with Hastings it will go on and on and on, and then we wont sign him and will get someone from the lower leagues instead.

That’s the spirit!

As ninefingers would say, "You got to be realistic"

Or... Giants and Rhinos in Leeming / Myler swap deal.... I hope not

Like the Dogman

Agree on both points

Didn't know he was still in Oz. Bet you know what's on my Christmas list.

I heard the closest he got was a Sezer salad

From what I hear now is that

1. Sezer has signed - they are awaiting the visa to be approved before announcing it.
2. Kruise and his agent are trying to force a move. Was due to turn back for training and didnt (not sure how true this is)
3. We aren't releasing Frawley until we have found a replacement for Kruise as he may end up playing 9.

Whatever happens with the Frawley/Kruise situation (hoping it doesn't affect the Sezer situation) I do hope that if & when we sign Sezer there will be a big PR event just before season ticket deadline day to boost sales. (or is that just too obvious a thing to do?)

Kruse isn’t even the best 9 at the club wouldn’t be end of the world if he left imo

If the Kruise thing comes to be then I will be seriously considering whether I will be supporting the club going forward to the extent I have in the past. It indicates a very short sighted view by the club and coach. We would be strengthening a rival club who don’t have much cover in that position whilst putting ourselves in that position.
I don’t agree he’s not our best 9. Kruise is the kind of player we should be building around. He’s a match winner and unplayable when he’s at his best. Potential England no 9- Something I can’t see AOB ever being- much as he’s solid he’s not got the x-factor of Kruise.
We would put ourself in a position of being left short for specialist players in the 9 position for next season- I don’t believe we currently have 4 specialist 9s and we also expect to run a reserve squad!
Frawley and AOB at 9 is not what I want to see next year. I’m not convinced by butterworth as yet as he’s yet to test himself at SL- and with reserve spots to fill- and no academy player to step up where would that leave us?

I understand your point about not been happy at potentially losing Leeming. However your stance at blaming the club is poor. If the club wanted him out I could understand. However it sounds like the player wants to leave. If this is the case why would you stand in his way. An unhappy player is not going to perform to the required levels. The club just needs to make sure it gets the appropriate level of compensation. I would also question the ethical issue of Leeds approaching a contracted player. However to blame the club is ridiculous.
