Gary wont pay over the odds, and I am proud of that,but good luck to GAZ on getting himself a good deal.He has left a good legacy at Headingley and he will always get a good reception,but it does cut a bit signing for a club like that ,and that awful black and white strip ugh!its still not you Gareth

Well they have to gloat about something, because in terms of success they have a hell of a long way to go to match us.

Although expecting any team to go and win 5 grand finals in xx amount of years is ridiculous.

They did beat widnes last weekend though

Thanks for your input about KH -you are def her Husband or related in some way - amazing

at least we get them!

Why are all these Hull fans on here ?? (Ellis in 2013 will be a has been).

Don't be grumpy.

Us signing Ellis might mean you can take Mike Burnett back.

so Hulls moments of excitement are signing a player whereas ours are winning 5 titles in 8 years. I'm not sure I would want to swap

Not to mention the two titles in three years we've achieved since Ellis left us...

Nope but beating you set of arrogant s in cardiff sure as hell made up for it, no wonder i dislike leeds with a passion, btw how many tickets couldnt you sell for wembley last year when you was out of form and expecting to get beat by wigan, only saying like fickle as f@@k

Bless

But he's not wrong.

Warrington, Wigan, Hull, Hudds & with Bateman coming through maybe even Bradford.

JJB I'll give you, but the idea that Ablett and Delaney are in the top 10 2nd rowers in the league is just blinkered.

10 off my head that are better than both:

Waterhouse, Westwood, O'Loughlin, Manu, Wilkin, JJB, O'Donnell, Whitehead, Tickle & Menzies.

Very good point. The rhinos bandwagoner turnout at Wembley last year was embarrassingly fickle with huge unpopulated areas at the Leeds end. I daresay quite a few hardcore rhinos fans didn't bother either. Can't blame them though because Leeds never beat Wigan in a Final. History proves that.

Correct.

Quite why Hull fans seem to think rhinos fans are bothered about Ellis signing for them is mystifying. It's a fact that most rhinos fans (on this forum anyway) believe he's a waste of money and have been convinced in their belief about that since around 11am this morning.

Ablett, JJB and Delaney are superior anyhow. Since about 11am this morning.

If only that was actually borne out by this thread. A review shows that from the time he came on the market most leeds fans would welcome him back but only if the price was right and certainly not at a cost to the squad and if he didn't come then so what, we have a world champion squad and second row wasn't aPosition that concerned anyone. But don't let the facts get in the way of a little trolling

Don't worry the [ufour[/u championships we've won since Cardiff have sure as hell made up for losing one cup final

AP/Keith lets peoples actual opinions get in the way of his trolling

Are you stupid?

well your not exactly the most belove at Headingley either when you come in your drunken foulmouthed hordes,but I dont mind you lording it over us when you have beaten us on the field not when you have signed an ex lees player that we may have not been in the running to sign him any way

Ellis is better than any of our current backrow, but if we couldn't fit him under the cap sobeit.

I'm glad a class player has signed for Hull. We need more competition in SL.

...and meanwhile on the VT and probably the Hull board this thread is being cited as evidence that we're gutted not to have signed Ellis.

Meh, let them have him. A great player but I wouldn't want us held to ransom for 3 years on the money he's likely to be pulling. Fair play to Gaz for topping up his pension.
Weren't the Codheads 'spanking the monkey' over Joe Westermans signing at one time?

What Keith wrote on page three, as well as being very dismissive of Ellis' NRL career.

And he was right.

And the consistent opinion of the first few pages is whilst most Leeds fans would like to see him back, we don't need him and shouldn't break the bank. Keith and some over excited Hull fans might think Leeds fans have changed their opinion on Ellis since he signed for Hull but if they actually read the thread they would see that isn't the case.
