Not really, making false claims on behalf of Brad Singleton contributes about as much as saying Beau Falloon is a club legend.
Sure, you can claim it's an opinion, but don't expect the opinion to be taken seriously.

You don't have to take my opinions seriously, of course not. No obligation to take anyones opinion seriously.
Sometimes we gain more insight from other people's comments, and the process of looking at things from a different angle is never a bad thing. We can then revise our own opinions, or not. But your 'opinion' is just that. Also depends what you are talking about. You may not agree with my opinion on Singo, but do agree on other Rhino's points. A more realistic picture develops by accumulating info from different posters.
Jeez it was early for that, but even had my coffee yet....

The annoying thing is that I can see him doing well at wigan.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sat Sep 19, 2020 11:03 am  

To be fair to Singo he had a good few decent games in '17 too but imo never really lived up to his potential. As others have said, he is not a starting prop but a good support prop

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sat Sep 19, 2020 11:11 am  

Overall he was pretty underwhelming for Leeds. I'm sure he'll go on at Wigan though

Watkins has a blinder at the weekend. Still the best English centre by a country mile. Why oh why did we ditch him in first place, or not try to resign him?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sun Sep 20, 2020 11:39 am  

Harry Newman, you know the young player that over took him in the pecking order also had a blinding game at the weekend.

Watkins is a great guy and if he can regain his fitness and form is a great player, but he’s gone and at the time it was the right move for player and club, we have one of the best young players in the game replacing him, that is a massive positive for the future of the club, you need to move on

Agar saying he doesn't want Sutcliffe to leave. Hurrell saying Sutcliffe is staying.

Hoping he leaves, but with Myler getting a new deal it looks like we could be getting yet another new deal coming up.

More seriously bad retention.

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sun Sep 20, 2020 12:38 pm  

Sutcliffe is contracted for next year, not much we can do if no other club is wanting to pay a fee and we shouldn’t be letting contracted players leave for free if at all possible.

I’ve no issue with him seeing out his contract, but then I think he’s a decent player who gets way too much stick on here.

If the Cas interest is true and they're looking for a replacement for Shenton, the last few games may give them a nudge to put an offer in. Im not a huge fan of Suttcliffe but he is a solid Centre, thought he was pretty good there at the at the back end of 2017 and while covering Hurrell recently. Like chris, iv no issue with him seeing out his contract if a decent offer dosnt come in.

Would really hope at that time, with Hurrell and Suttcliffe off contract end of nxt season ...A Suttcliffe or preferably Jack Broadbent would be pushing to start opposite Newman, with Corey Hall not too far off aswel.
