A uk based club bidding for Mose Masoe would love that to be us. That would give us a real enforcer at 6'4" and nearly 20 stone. He is being released by the Roosters. 3 NRL clubs also in for him according to the article I read.

He would kill it as an impact forward in SL.

I seen that on the Leeds forum and watched some clips of him online.....a beast of a bloke that's for sure.

As much as i'd like another forward my first priority would be an outside back to add some competition first and foremost. If we play Gelling at left centre that leaves us with Thornley and Murphy to back up the rest of the lads. I don't think that's enough as after that who would we be looking at now Marsh, Russell and King have gone? I'd guess next in line is Burgess or Tierney but they're very young.

Looks exactly what we need.

Hes not another Feka type is he?

Size wise he's not the same looking at him on the internet clips i've seen. He's taller and more athletic but those few minute clips are literally all I know about him.

At 23 he's hardly the experienced head people have been saying we need for the front row. FWIW I think that'll be it now as far as recruitment goes. We'll have Mossop, Prescott, Taylor, Dudson, Flower and Lauaki fighting for 4/5 places with Crosby, Spencer and Burke used if/when necessary.

It is a young set of props but there is still plenty of experience, though we do need to get a good injury-free season out of both Prescott and Mossop. Looking at Bilkos team sheet page they only got 4 games together this season!

That pack isn't great. Very worried unless we sign another

cant even say what a huge year this is for mossop. make or break if he wants to be classed as a very top class prop.

also concerned that luaki is our old head...the guys not shown much for me last year.

Not sure how concrete it is, but I've just heard we've put a bid in for Westwood...

Agreed, since Maguire left some players improved e.g. Farrell, Goulding, Mickey whereas some I feel went backwards e.g. Mossop, Prescott (although injured a lot so a bit unfair) and Lima. Make or break for Mossop because Hill has already proven himself to be better at the current time so if he wants to be in the England fold alongside Graham, Burgess, Hill etc he needs to have a big year

He has just signed for Wakefield of all clubs. Why weren't we in for him? Only 27, been there and done it at Origin level and would be a great leader to our young pack. Can't see why we didn't try and get him

How do you know we weren't in for him?

Well if we were and we got beaten by Wakefield for his signature I'd be worried as we should have plenty of cap space. He'd have been ideal!

Why do people seem to think we have so much cap left for another prop!? I make it 9 in the first team now plus the options of moving hock and Hansen forward if we get really desperate. As it stands it is likely 2 first team props are going to miss out when all are fit so why would we bring in another? An experienced "enforcer" would be nice, but it's a luxury that just isn't feasible with the salary cap!

Poore is no leader and whilst a good player offers little we do not already have. He is not an enforcer type player and whilst experienced does not bring leadership to the table.

I am sure he will go well and will be an asset to Wakefield, but simply because he has an Sustralian accent and once played Origin does not mean he should be snapped up by us.
