Doesn't sound like a season ticket selling signing, but shall we give the guy a chance before we all write him off?

Very well put.

Leeds Rhinos do produce enough English quality in Danny McGuire, Rob Burrow, Kevin Sinfield and Lee Smith to name a few. Them four Leeds Rhinos players alone would fit into any team world over in rugby league as would many English rugby league players we have over here.

Gold Coast Titans whom are currently residing third in the league which is probably thanks to Brett Delaney been in the squad. I bet you can find a ton more worse players than Brett about in the NRL. I’ll judge him at the end of his time at the Rhinos rather than the beginning.

Its fine to be disappointed that Leeds haven’t signed a player of your standards but your been very harsh in judging him before he even goes on the field for us. Personally as for the Youngsters coming through in the last few years at Rhinos the only ones I’ve been impressed by are Ryan Hall and Luke Burgess.

The rest for me are just good enough to make the team and do the job. As long as we are top or the tree or near it I don’t care who wears the blue and amber for Leeds!



Nope but this is where I think peoples dislike for clubs signing ‘average’ overseas players stem from. Placing the blame game on the clubs hands is wrong IMO. Besides England as a team didn’t turn up in that competition. If we did I recon it could have been a whole different storyline. Lets wait and see what happens in this quad nations.

In this case its a season ticket reducer, its a shocking signing, absolutely pointless, he is way off the likes of Watkins, Ratu and Gibson.


My mate has just emailed me from Aus and he hasnt stopped laughing since the news broke!!

I'd like to see Ratu given a shot, played well last week against Wigan and i thought he ran hard and played well tonight when he came on.

I like your observation about Godden who we signed from Hunter Mariners.

I disagree about Lyon, he was out of the game remember and the point your making holds no water as neither of those players had the "star" status of Buderus.

The guy cant be too bad, he starts every game for the Titans who are 3rd in the NRL and he played for NSW City in the City-Country game last year and he's only 23 years old.

anyone else confirmed this signing ?

Who's the promising player?

Hmm makes you wonder how he gets a game for the Titans if he's do crap?

How many times you seen him play, out of interest?

Lee Smith.

I take the views of people who watch him week in week out, thats good enough for me, hes a very poor mans Aspinwall.


However keep believing.

Can't fault that but lets be honest an nrl coach who picks him week in week out with his team 3rd in the league should know a little more about a players abillity than your "mate"(

like you've got one) in aus.

looks like he has a jaw like fielden,if you go onto utube king hit ko.

So, none then...just as I thought

Extremely harsh and extremely wrong. Now try explain to me where this so called centre problem came from? I think you'll find it was after Toopi's injury that ended his Leeds career. The guy wasn't much to shout about compared to Godden, Senior & Carroll but he was a great defender, solid in attack and his first season apart he was much better than Chris McKenna.

If I remember rightly, Toopi was outstanding in the 2007 Grand Final - some awesome hits in defence. I always thought he was a lot better than he was given credit for - he had one bad patch, and rather than getting behind the bloke as a true fan should do, the boo boys were all over him like a rash - some people really need to look up the definition of the word "supporter"!

Toopi also filled in at loose forward a few times i seem to remember, or at least the back row, his defence suited playing there in fairness.

Are you saying that Watkins, Ratu and Gibson would get a game every week in the NRL? No wonder your mate laughs at you.

You think Burrow would get in at the cowboys, who have Jonathan Thurston ?

You think McGuire would get into Brisbane with Lockyer?

They would all struggle to get into most NRL sides, but on the other hand they would walk into most -if not every- SL side.

By the way, I didn't come on here to have a dig, just wanted to say I think this will be a good signing for you, good solid player, nothing spectacular, but from what i've seen he will definitely do well in SL.

don't know if anyone has seen this, majority of you will probably be relieved judging by the comments on this topic www.nzherald.co.nz/league/news/a ... d=10588275
