| Tommy and MicMac will be our 9s next year.
Diskin's reason for leaving after just signing an extention to his contract is an odd one. Darren Albert did the same at Saints some years ago.
More to this then we'll ever know.
Diskin wouldn't be an improvement on what we've got therefore there's no point.
Glad he's off to Bradford.

| Suprised at this news although i was also suprised when Leeds initially signed Buderes.
Would be one of Bardfords better signings if they got him although they already seem to have two players who are more than capable in this position.
Get the feeling that all is not well at Leeds.

| Diskin is average at best. I'd rather have tempted Malcom Alker out of retirement

| The story is we offered him a 3 year contract at Leeds a while back but he turned it down and took a 1 year contract. I think its with Buderus at the club who actually has a 2 year contract. The Bulls approached Leeds last week with the offer of 3 years. GH to be fair allowed them to speak to Diskin because of the contract length and he has accepted it. Just say he had a bad injury this season he could have been buggered.
Personally though I think had he stayed with Leeds he would have been released next season anyways with McShane coming through. It might be a push for McShane to do as well as hoped this season coming but I think Buderus will step up and play more. We also have Hood coming through who is regarded as one of Englands best hooking prospects but he is about 2 years off SL standard yet

| Would have probably taken him for a year but never 3 years! I think Micky Mac will take his chance next year, his main problem is one that isn't his fault and thats the fact that he has terrible luck with injuries. Fingers crossed for him next year. For this reason I still think we need cover in that position next year until some of our younger hookers get up to SL standard.
Bit of a wierd signing for Bradford as they already have Wagga and L'estrange, Potter must like playing 3 hookers in his 17.

| Does not make sense to me this.
He leaves Leeds where there is Danny B to go to Bradford where there is Godwin and L'Estrange, maybe they will move L'Estrange but to scrum half that would mean the end of Orford surely.

| Quote: 100% Warrior "Don't forget, Phelps and Pryce's contracts are yet to be renewed/not renewed. So there will be a little room to navigate around the SC. Plus with Deacs playing future not yet announced I think we could expect another signing before 2011, despite what IL and MM say about it.
Diskin, for the right price and contract length then yes I would like to have him, however it seems likely he's going to Bradford so I'll tell you where I am on this....I'm out.'"
Phelps back to Australia - According to his Twitter
Pryce - I think will end up at Castleford.

They've all gone back though, it's what the Aussie players do in their off-season. I still have a feeling he might stick around.

I thought he really showed us in the last 3 games of the season that he is a quality player. His toughness is second to none in terms of hookers. I remember last season we saw small glimses of a good kicking game, if he can add this to a little more creativity then he will be a quality player.
It's a shame we don't have Gregory and Edwards around at the club, they could give him some real good tips on creating space for putting people through gaps as they were the masters of it.
