Is he still isolating?

Just on this I know Tom gets some stick on here but he was excellent against Salford, I think he's a better Centre than Winger to be honest.

Think I agree but thats not saying a lot

Yep he has just lost a yard of pace in recent years. He is still very strong and moving to centre might well extend his (Leeds) career a bit.

It does again make me wonder if we need another wing/FB though. Tindall still has some question marks over his defence. Broadbent really is more centre than wing himself. We do have a couple of interesting wingers coming through again but they look some distance off being ready for first grade even if they do make the cut.

Im hearing a lot about Gale at Featherstone, maybe we could be looking at someone like that?

I said months ago Tom was a good option at centre but the likes of Braoadbent and Newman are much better.
His defence is ok but what with Hurrell and Briscoe at centre there`s simply no pace whatsoever.
This year should be his last at Leeds.

He's signed up for another year so no chance of that.

Tom is clearly very well-respected at the club. I can’t see him going anywhere.

It’s up to someone else to push past him. I’m much less interested in Lineham than I would be Davies or Johnstone.

Mellor appeal unsuccessful so he sits it out.

Anyone received their link to order drinks it was supposed to be sent out by 5pm today?

My prediction. Rhinos 40 Centurions 18 (unfortunately)

Apparently still working on the legalities of drinks orders etc.

I see Salford are the latest Covid cancellation, I hope we've had no close contacts there to add to the long list already missing this week.

Agar's interview on Radio Leeds didnt sound too positive about Handley's recovery from concussion. Apparently took him a few days to shake the side effects so will miss Monday's game as well as the Leigh game.

Hope Tetevano is on the mend as well- was hoping to see him back next week but still missing. Was he ever "announced" as one of the Covid victims?

I don't think they did announce any of the covid victims as they said it was out of respect for the players and families.

I didn't clock that Tetevano wasn't in the squad, maybe its just a case of keeping him fresh for Warrington?

Don't think we have the luxury of keeping players fresh at the moment.

I've been watching out for more info on this since that was reported. It'd be seriously disappointing if this was to be cancelled.

Apparently all clear so that's a relief.

I`m sure it was a fair hearing but coincidently the panel of 3 had 2 ex Leigh players on it.

I actually quite liked this little tidbit from Agar

""Luke threw some punches, but he had a knee placed on his neck which is very dangerous and the cameras didn't pick it up. Bodene threw a punch too, but last year we played Catalans and Brad Dwyer got smacked in the mouth we had a poor reaction from our players."

""Our payers made a pact that they wouldn't allow that again. When one of your players gets knocked out, there's no side in the competition you wouldn't see a reaction from like that"


Mind you our players sticking up for Hurrell doesn't help us on the field if they are banned, but I remember when Dwyer got smacked and I was pretty shocked none of our players piled in

I have now seen the Mellor incident and agree that a one match ban was correct. Tom Briscoe lucky not to be banned too for a similar incident.

It's a shame with Gale as he was tackled late which Hicks was keen to ping us for. It then sounds like Lannon placed his knee on Gale's neck resulting in the punches. I can understand why Gale reacted but not helpful for us.

I still do not believe Thompson should have seen red but at worst it should have been red card sufficient.

Sounded slightly concerning with Handley and I get the impression the starting half backs tomorrow will not be Lui and McLelland.

15 months since ive last been to Headingley and now i cant order a cider on seatserve as its Carlsberg or Tetleys only. Life is cruel.

I have no issue with the Leeds players response, or the bans they’ve got. For me Mossop should’ve got more than 2 games though.

I’m not sure what our sides going to look like but we should out muscle Leigh and win fairly comfortably, even more so if Lui and McCelland are fit and able to play, having half backs always helps.

Having one halfback helps!

I can’t see both of them playing and haven’t got the foggiest how the team will line up TBH!

Maybe.
