He's a player of some pedigree, although I'm not sure if he's still pushing for rep honours after dramatically bursting onto the scene a few years back.

A player of some pedigee who's struggling to cope with the speed of the play the balls in the NRL



So is he really out of shape like Barry Ward?

put the money towards a bid for sam burgess.then with graham we've got the cornerstone of our pack for the future.

But they're trying to speed up the play of the ball down under, whereas we're trying to slow it down, I think.



The next Spud Carroll, perhaps

That'd be nice but if he leaves the bulls i think he would join his brothers at leeds

you're probably right,but if he DOES leave the bulls,i'd like to think we would try to sign him.

You'd definitely hope so. Quality young british props are very rare.

luke is the only burgess at leeds, the other 3 are at the bulls

I thought leeds had signed the twins?

JC wont be here next season and if a player like Shrek is available for the right money, get him signed.

BOGOF

I'd definitely go for O'Meley. He's the kind of destructive prop we need.

is there a link to this???? was it just super league or another club including nrl?

Why? Since when did Leeds become a big powerhouse in RL?

With the salary cap, if you can sort out a players departure from one club then you are as likely as any to sign that player. Leeds can't spend any more than anyone on salaries and with Hetherington are unlikely to go thrashing cash about.

If we can fit O'Meley under the cap then we should definitely sign him. Exactly what we need in my opinion. We'd be one tough proposition if you added him to our front row.

Wont come to the North West of England as long as Paul Sculthorpe still lives here. Still running scared from when Paul absolutely snotted him.

It was in the Express this morning, fallen out with the coach apparently

Nah, nowhere near his former standard.
Luke Bailey would do very nicely.

Not seen him play for a while but he was a top prop.

If he is 80% of what he was I'd get him signed.

We are in dire need of a big, hard, rough prop coz jammer is targeted now and is starting to look tired.

Jammer can't carry on being a 1 man front row.

Sign em all up.
