Re: John Bateman

How do you bring George Williams back in this team the 2 half backs have been brilliant and Harry Smith is as solid as a rock , my best player in the 2 games never gets fazed Definitely but Brian Noble keeps picking the 2 try wingers as MOTM but perhaps he is thinking of awarding Harry the man of t...

Could I ask where this leaves us re overseas quota? Was his departure already factored in?
+1 always liked the look of him before his injury last year.

Re: Owen Farrell

If we could get Radley I'm sure we'd be willing to 'encourage' somebody else to leave to make space. I can't imagine that we'd have put ourselves in this position if we had a realistic chance of signing him. Another good signing, whoever it is, would really make this a happy off-season though Radle...

Stop it! Now that would be a signing and a half.
Well, he did not do anything exceptional v Tonga yesterday, almost anonymous if he wasn't injured early doors.

Been awhile since that happened
And now added Croft to the deal. Long time since Leeds spent this amount of cash.

Always start with 17 for players as its most unlikely you will finish a Superleague game with 17 fit players but at least we survived.

Re: RFL agree huge sponsorship deal for Super League and Challenge Cup

I suppose it's a reflection of the age/world we live in that we need to be grateful for being used to promote betting. The rugger boys get sponsored by BMW and we get BetFred. Their name is inked out with a black marker pen on my shirts, btw. Not sure if this reduces the sponsorship amount. You hav...

Let's hope they can tempt a backer with serious money and no...

Re: Sky versus ch 4

I think most of us agree that C4's coverage is 'better' than Sky's. It's just a shame if they're not prepared to put money into it. Yes far superior with better commentator although he has appeared from time to time on Sky so perhaps they are going to sign him up. The chap who does the introduction...
