Good evening Griff, myself I'm looking forward to the partnership between our Clubs, should be very interesting, I will look for the Sheffield result first now after every game, I really think your Club and ours will benefit from the arrangement, good luck for the coming season, I hope to attend a few games when Sheff are in LANCS.

Interesting. Smith is also a decent player at this level. We'll see how things go anyway!

I have just been told we have signed an Aussie second row /prop called Lachlan Burr, he was down to play for Bradford but has become a free agent now , for me we seem to have an abundance of forwards now.Again very interesting.

Two players who won’t feature for the Centurions this Sunday are youngsters Lewis Foster and Dave Thompson. They are the first players to join Sheffield Eagles since the dual registration agreement has been arranged with the Championship club.

The pair are expected to feature for the Eagles at Doncaster on Sunday but will turn out for Leigh against Dewsbury on January 29.

Good Evening my feathered friends hope you are all well ?Charlie is back for the new season, the ransom has been paid there was an attempt by the Wigan Carolis to radicalise me but I resisted,it seems we are now like in-laws so to speak,so I must say I hope you do well this year.I see you have signed Eze Harper,a good prospect who will do well for you, my advice listen to Angelic Cynic,the guy is from the same Planet as myself.Charlie knows.The gravy could be Turkey.

An update on that Griff. McNally was injured in the Wigan 'friendly' and is out for about 12 weeks. That virtually guarantees Hampshire's place in the starting lineup, especially as Lee Smith has been released now.

I wonder who you will get from us this week?

Ridyard, Weston, Stewart, Green, Foster, Naughton, & Thompson, not in our 19 for Leeds.

After Minchella and Brown linked up well in the halves at the weekend, it'll be interesting to see if Tubbs selects Ridyard or not. After signing Johnson from Huddersfield today, I imagine he'll replace Burr who's in your squad for Friday. Tubbs may bring Cox and Straugheir into the squad so who knows? Dayne Weston was brilliant for you guys last season so it'd be good to have him in the squad unless he picked up a knock against Cas?

Burr and Weston.

Lachlan Burr singled out for praise rlHererl

This now appears to have reached an impasse with Acton,Hopkins and Burr being named in successive,and successful,Leigh squads,and Lewis Foster not featuring in The Championship game v Featherstone,last week,and none available for the LCC game v Hull KR.

Wasn't Foster playing for Whitehaven last week ?

( Just checked ) Yes he was.Off the bench.Dave Thompson started for them.

It appears possible new additions will be arriving.Good.Need that winning feeling,again.
