Lauaki was mentioned in the press a few weeks before signing, but I take your point.

dont shoot me down but just talking to james smailes he said the inidcations are that orford wants to stay in australia and that kite is unlikely and is just his agent stirring up stuff. He said his money would be on brett finch and to expect about 5 sigings.

It's just the club diverting attention from the real issues in my opinion.

Finch would do as well........5 signings...must be shipping some out then.

Clueless coaching and crap recruitment.

Booooo! I'm shocked he's been willing to put his name to a story with so little substance.

They might just be promotions from the academy.

Calderwood

Looks like I have a date in Leeds City Centre approaching then.

Lauaki and Calderwood?

I take your point, though. Most of our major signings have been unheralded in the press, and players who the press [ihave[/i mentioned usually don't appear.

And certainly high profile players where we are mentioned alongside the likes of Wigan and Warrington.

I don't think so, they mentioned a couple of players to come a few weeks ago.

However we are more than likely to be trying for someone else, we don't usually find out who is signing until the deal is done like with Berrigan, Fitzgibbon and Crocker.

Aye. Although that [imight[/i change now that parachute payments have been targeted by HMRC.
