Nice to see the club see the priority of re-signing an underperforming Australian, rather than put its efforts into resigning one of its most promising academy produced players..... no really.

And I expect the usual suspects who proclamin everything academy is best, to be behind this move as acceptable.

How do you know they are not trying to sign up Smith?

Disa you are way off the mark with this one. I would rather leeds sign up all the players they require instead of just focussing on one. Scotty has been a great servant for the club, and is playing out of position. I have felt that he looked unhappy this season, but obviously not.

A great, (and unexpected) signing.

whats the point in trying to re-sign someone who wants to move away?


Well, where else would these Union stories come from?

Doesn't want to move away, would rather stay at Leeds just awaiting the offer that was promised after last years GF. Can't blame the lad for checking out all options before re-signing.

It can't help him to settle with the constant changing of centres inside him not allowing him to get any form of partnership like he had with Senior on the left.

Think Disa has a bit of a man crush on Lee Smith!

Really?

Why is there all sorts of gossip flying around and where are the denials?

Why deny anything when nothing has been agreed as yet?

I think it's a great signing for the club, perhaps this crushes all the incorrect rumours of unrest in the camp.

Looked one of the best wingers in the competition outside Senior. Are we seeing the "real" Scott Donald in 2009?
