Same as Carl Spackler , Not seen to much of him this season . Potentially , He could turn out to be a very good signing for us . Possible the end for Burnett ?

From the Leeds board


Sounds good.

If he turns out a good 'un it's a pretty poor move by them when their props are mostly knocking on a bit.

The more I read about our management team, the more confident I am for our future.

Almost certain I reckon, we shouldn't have really brought him back in the first place. Nowhere near good enough at prop and our backrow is far too strong for him to break into.

I expect them to announce a signing from Bradford to replace him in the next few days.

Good move by the club particularly as the forwards is an area where the academy players are not quite ready for this level and certainly not over the easter period when missing both O'Meley & Moa.

Gives us breathing space and and does not put too much pressure on Bowden who seems to be progressing well.

Wonder if Leeds will be raiding the Bulls hence allowing Pitts to move on?

Re: Burnett

It's been mentioned on the club website, possibly in the Jay Pitts announcement, that Burnett is unavailable to play.


Regardless, I don't see him having a long-term future at the club.

Agree again , Maybe Gentle wanted a look at him .

Seems strange that Leeds let him go no fee!!!

Hope hes not the pitts!!!

Quite possibly, but their old fellas seem to be outnumbering the younger ones still, particularly at prop. 4 in their 30s now.

Good signing by the club, pleased to see we are looking at young British players around SL first, before looking overseas (like we did with Cordoba in 2009 and that french prop in 200icon_cool.gif

I reckon we've been very savvy here. I bet we hear no more about the Briscoe fiasco, we won't take it any further. It feels like an appeasement deal to me which suits our needs now and for the future. Don't reckon either Moa or O'Meley will be next year so we've covered one of them early, still believe we will get another prop in next season possible an overseas player.

Haven't seen alot of him so cant comment on pitts, like others can see moa and o'meley both going which i still think one of them should be kept

Very true or Leeds are clearing some cap space
