Intriguing, although this could mean anything!
I'm curious why one of the best young players in the land would come to us over a northern club, especially given our woeful on field performance.
I dearly hope it is a back... preferably an outside back or half back. Scott Moore on loan seems the most likely case, as I believe he can play half back. There is a hole there, both Dorn, Orr and Gale are best (in my opinion) at 6 - i.e.second receiver. We're already packed to the rafters with hookers.

| Ben Jones-Bishop would have been nicer.
SL site thinks that's who we've got.

| I'm not sure how long a contract normally lasts for, but
1) this is a young kid, so lots of playing years ahead of him
2) Quins have been watching him a while
3) they believe he's good enough
So why only give a one year contract? It doesn't exactly say, "we really believe in you" does it?

Maybe they aren't so sure about no. 3). He's probably one of these players BMcD's doesn’t really envisage playing much first team.

| Does anyone have a squad list with the players primary positions and possibly alternate positions they play? I'm keen to see how balanced it is.

| I can't believe some of the negativity on here. We've signed a bloke who is surplus to requirements in the strongest squad in the country and people are writing him off as a dud already. We sign NL players and people moan that they won't be able to make the step up - we sign someone from the Champions and people still moan!

How about we sign some players of proven SL quality ?

Sinfield, Burrow, McGuire, Webb........ I suspect there wouldnt be to much moaning
Our experiences with Nanyn, Grayshan, Kaye, Thompson, ...... maybe has tainted out thinking process somewhat
We have just finished an awful season. To prevent repetition, a higher quality of player is required(possibly) To date we seemed to have got like for like with what we have disposed of. Not only that our strike power out wide was questionable(Winger not scoring one try for example) and we haven't brought in any strike power
Fans of this club dont mind blooding youth but you need to compliment it

Look at all the youngster's wigan have shipped over the years and how many of them have gone on to do well?
This is a Leeds squad that has won the league the last three years with largely the same squad - and most from within its own academy. If there are promising youngsters that are not able to get regular football up there im all for bringing down to London and giving them a shot.
BUT and before all the Wost Fans in the League© jump down my throat, I would like to see us sign some genuine quality too.

| Perhaps the comparison should be made
Gafa ----------> ???
Gardner ----------> ???
Graves ----------> ???
Grayshon ----------> Esders
Haggerty ----------> James
Heckenberg ----------> Jones
Nanyn ----------> Wilkes
Skee ----------> Ellis
On that basis, provided we are going to replace Gafa with a decent specialist centre (not Ropati) and maybe look to a another decent outside back then we are certainly no worse off than last year. Granted, we are not potential grand finalists but the blokes that have gone, other than Haggerty, were only Championship level players only and we seem to have recruited young blokes looking to prove themselves
