Lets see if Justin can get the best out of him'"
or even more plausible, cover for chev who is likely to be out all next season

Do you see Chev being offered a new deal?
If he was to be paid off, which is a possibility, I should imagine the pay off and Ratu's wages won't be too far off....which in fairness is probably good business as at least you get a player on the pitch for the same money.
If paying both.............

they can also just de register him and then give him a 1yr contract if he makes it back to prove himself worthy of another contract

How does the de-registering work??....would that make Chev a free agent??

yes. but i would feel that they may negotiate some form of informal agreement for him to see his last year out, hence the 1 yr option when back from injury

| Hopefully will get ahead of Welham who is dire when it counts and is without doubt not a top 4 player..

| Looks like a pretty good signing to me, would doubt he'll be on big money and if Friday showed us anything it was we are very light in the backs in we pick up an injury. Add to that the fact that Webster looks permanently on the verge of pulling up injured and Chev is gone for at least next season (i would assume) then a right centre seems the obvious choice. Afterall what cover do we have there, cockayne??
We need to strenghten the squad and need to do it with young English players, whether ratu fulfils his potential we will see but at least the potential is there.
We need to add an impact prop (or two) to our playing staff now and then I see the recruitment more or less done.

| Quote: Stan Butler "So big for his boots or worth the contract??......I would imagine if worth the extra £££'s you would of paid??
Seems strange that in todays climate, homegrown quota's etc etc that Leeds would let a future star go?
On the otherside of the coin, if he is worth the dollar, who's place is he taking?'"
Not the Hitlerington style, you should know that

We work on the opposite mentality to your team, we sign potential young english players and give them room to develop, your lot sign players that had potential, usually in the early nineties and let them graze in the KC retirement home.

| By the sounds of some of the comments seems a decent prospect and I'm sure working with JM and the team will be of a big benefit to him.
I seem to remember a few articles about him in RL Express.

| Strange signing, I expected Rovers to sign a more proven player. Been around the Leeds set up for a while and seen bits and pieces of him but it's all just potential at the minute. Gibson was more highly rated and he has not ended up the player people thought.
