Talent in spades but a heart the size of a pea. Even with that he’s a decent player. If he had more grit about him he’d be one of the best in the world given his physical attributes.

Bit of a strange one this.

Does that mean one of Martin or ward are out for longer than expected?

It also says Evans has gone back on loan to Bradford which I assume means Tom Briscoe is not fully fit?

I'm not knocking it, kind of a nothing lose scenario but all a bit odd.

Shh

Surprise signing, don’t think anyone saw this coming. Decent player, hopefully with a point to prove. Can be very good on his day, but does go missing a bit at times.

Suggests there’s a bigger issue with the back row, as I don’t see us transforming him into a big metres prop a la Peacock.

I think the 2 months loan is good business for Leeds. Good player on his day gives us more size and options and gives us chance to look at him properly

Loan at this stage sounds sensible. Should have done the same when we signed Brett Ferres.

Great player on his day, but for whatever reason face hasn't fitted at Wigan.

Again good and clever move by the club he'll provide cover for our pack in back row and front row and it's only a 2 month loan if he is poor and doesn't turn up for us there's no long term commitment from us. But on the flip side if he can regain his form when he was at Saints before he went to NRL with Titans we could go all out to try and get him on a permanent deal. Sinfield starting to look like the right man after all.

It is a strange one and might have made sense had we not signed Mellor.
Also strange we are now loaning Evans back to the Bulls what was the point of that one?
One more prop like Ava and that will do for this year I guess.

I think this is a good move, although helways seemed in-between a prop and SR - I reckon Agar sees him as an agile bench prop rather than put and out second rower?

He's seemed out of sorts at Wigan and maybe he hasn't fitted in with their style of play, hopefully we can get the potential out of him, I wanted us to sign him from the Titans so glad he's seen sense at last

I hope there is a buy on clause in the contract because if there isn't and he has a belting 2 months then we will have paid his wages for two months, got him match fit for him to then go back to Wigan and add strength to them at a more vital stage of the season.

I was going to post this a day ago ,but I didnt think it would get past first base

bit of a meh. we need a prop

Im happy with this. Theres a decent player in there and he could make an impact off the bench for us so it will be interesting to see how it pans out. Bit of size about him. He could even start if Ward isnt back.

Evans was only really signed to add cover while Luke Briscoe was out early season who was supposed to be covering Handley and Newman.

Good move by the club to add Greenwood.

I'm a bit on the fence on this one. On the one hand, I don't see him as a prop. On the other, we might have signed Tony Clubb….

And if, after a few games, his spirit is proving as lacking as some claim it might be worth calling in JP for a one to one with him to explain what we need from him. Personally, I reckon he'll have a big point to prove and could go well.

He's always flattered to deceive to me. Picks some good lines close to the line which gets him the odd try, but that just hides the lack of an all round contribution.

That would be the same Tony Clubb who scored the greatest ever No Try past Brett Ferres last season.





Greenwood hasn't even stood out in the reserves this season from all accounts, so perhaps a change of scenery is what he needs. If you want to take him on permanently so we can free up some cap space, that'd be lovely. If you happen to know anyone interested in a rarely used M. Escare, please send them on to Kris Radlinski.

We still might be looking. I think this is a good move. We do have a lot of SR'S but most are squad players at best.

Surely he's an improvement on Liam Sutcliffe in the pack?

Does seem strange with martin, ward, mellor,smith, sutcliffe x 2,walters and Donaldson.plus cuthbertson and prior can also play loose. I appreciate they're not all amazing but surprised we've strengthened in that position.

He is a round the same size as Prior so I think he may be thrown into that position, unfortunately.

Tony Clubb 2015 grand final. Thanks Tony

What happens if he regains top form, does he return to Wigan or do you keep him?
I suppose if he doesn't play well and isn't worth a place then he will go back to the DW.
So what's in it for Leeds? Have you got injuries to your back rowers?

Agar confirms in YEP we have an option to make it permanent but we're having a good look at him first. Good move by the club. Agar speaks very highly of Greenwood, thinks Leeds can get best out of him.
