24 and hasn't played NRL till this year. TBH not being a Panthers watcher I hadn't heard of him. 4 years seems a bit of a gamble, but the passport and eligibility for GB issue made him more interesting than many.

Two shoulder reconstructions when he was at the Cowboys, but came back from those to earn himself a contract at Penrith and break into first grade. Signs of a good attitude and work ethic.

I can see him filling the loose forward role as an extra big man in the middle. A replacement for Bailey?

I think it is more likely to indicate a full time move to the centres for Ablett, as well as maybe the loss of Huaraki which has been rumoured.

The Club would be stupid to no resign Bailey, especially given his age and form compared to other forwards in the squad

This 60 page thread has run since the 1st May, and today Mr. Hetherington announces the signing of a name that has not been mentioned once.
I think that's GH 1 RLFans 0

Maybe this isn`t the marquee signing we were all waiting for.

If it is then the rumormongers need to look-up the word 'marquee'.

Not to mention the word 'rumour'

I thought I might have spelt marquee wrong!

A large temporary structure used when more established options aren't available?

Like Hull KR's golf stand?

oi getcha.

At least it's becoming clearer to see where the CEO and Coach are focussing their search for external recruits. Try not to be too disappointed when all those players able to command a decent salary find employment elsewhere. It appears Leeds will continue to take cheap option punts and seek to add value from within, succeed or discard and who is to say that isn't the only sensible approach anyway?

Briscoe?

hi all I know I havent posted that much and will probably be dismissed as a troll
but have posted on here before and had to make a new username as am unable to recover my old one anyway heard from a good source today that

Kyle Amor has signed for Hull fc!

Weller is definately going to Cas



And the venerable Ian Kirke has signed for Wakey



I wont name my source however he is usually bang on as he works at HQ
Does anyone know if this is right or am I being led up the garden path?

Weller to Castleford is doing the rounds quite abit even though he dismissed the rumours on Twitter. However, I cant see where he will fit in next season so I think there is something in it. Ian Kirke to Wakefield, another one I could see happening, due to the fact of interest in Scott Taylor and Kyle Amor may come back. I cant see there being anything in Amor to Hull FC due to his deal, as if its not Leeds, he would have two years left at Wakefield, unless Hull FC have offered them a fee for him.

I was shocked when he told me about Amor to hull as I really thought he would be coming back to us if he wasnt staying at Wakey. Theres talk on the Wildcats board about them maybe doing some kind of deal for Omeeley and the way Hull are spending £££££ they could have made Amor an offer he couldnt refuse?

Just got back from the game tonight have to say well done to the boys it also reminded me that the same lad told me Mcshane has also signed for Wakey so we will just have to wait and see I suppose

O'meleys ooc and what do you mean the way Hull are spending?

How much do you think Pitts and Watts cost us?

The only way i could see Amor going to Hull is if you took the option to take him back then you sold him to hull. He's signed 2 contracts both are binding and he has to rip one up.

Thats what I said surely if Amor doesnt come back to us then he has a contract with Wakefield but my source said thats what he had been told

And Hull FC have been throwing ££££ around in an attempt to buy success hasnt Mr gentle said hes going to spend whatever it cost to get you to the top

Any more news on these six top-class signings Pearson says the club has made yet?

Announced first week in Sept, Although I don't think he used the words "six top class signings".

holdsworth from salford meant to be one of them

Not of the 6.

Sam Smeaton - don't know how reliable the lad who told me but I'd be surprised if he was talking rubbish.

Solomona, providing he can pass a medical

Well he can`t even pass a Burger Bar so no hope of him passing a medical.
