Amor, hope not, if we need a prop forward let’s sign one who gets into the first 13, a prop who starts the game, not a squad player. We have enough squad players, all they do is slow up the development of the youngsters, this season we need to see some of these young kids playing first team rugby and let’s see how they are developing, further signings of squad players will only slow down their progress. If the kids are good enough let’s start introducing them into the team.


I agree. We probably do need a prop to be fair somebody aggressive who the ooposition look out for. Amor most definately isnt that man. We would be better nudging the kids up the pecking order.

End of the day though its all runours. When club have something to say they will.

I would sooner we sign Battye from London if we are looking at the likes of Amor.
Another Ava type prop is what`s needed as I feel Crosby will be similar to Amor and we need grunt to compete with other teams.

"Brian McDermott, with a wry smile, nods when asked if he remembers a specific incident which made him realise he was a prick. 'I do', he murmurs."

There need to be serious questions about how Leeds/Furner used and mismanaged someone who this morning looked like pretty much the best player in the world. He's just been MOM in a victory against the Kangaroos. Yes behind a brutal and winning pack but for him to fail to perform with Leeds raises a lot of questions, not least when he has been effective for Salford as well.

Agreed. He was outstanding against GB too. Think we can see why Furner was sacked.

He was a player low on confidence who came into a team lacking confidence, so its no surprise he struggled.

You are disregarding Tuis part in this though, he looked disinterested and unfit, sometimes it just doesn’t work out for a player, if he had been playing for us with a set of forwards like Tonga have I dare say you may have seen a different player aswell

It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

Re: 2020 | Squad talk : Sat Nov 02, 2019 10:05 am  
Precisely. At Leeds he played behind a beaten pack most weeks, was in poor condition when he arrived, was disinterested most of the time, and it was the right decision to let him go.

What happens after he leaves is irrelevant as it wouldn’t have happened at Leeds.
