We have 1 in u18 squad and would of had 2 but for injury of course you knew that though and are once again giving it large about the pie acadamy that has been long overshadowed in terms of producing quality 1st team players by our very own.
This year we have..
Mcguire.
Bishop.
Jjb.
Ablett.
Burrow.
Hall.
Mcshane.
Burgess.
Clarkson.
Smith.
Hood.
Singleton.
Stewart.
Casey.
Sinfield.
Watkins.
All of which are acadamy produced and as you know many have proved their quality so although we are carrying a few more over-seas players than usual we still have enough of our "Own" within the squad and there's still more to come.

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

Re: New signing- Weller Hauraki : Fri Nov 19, 2010 6:13 pm  
The thing about the Academy is you can either use it to produce players who will make a first team in SL or you can simply stockpile the best kids in the country. The two things are not the same.

Leeds choose to prepare players for first team duty, and over the years they have been very successful at this. We could, if we chose, keep players down in the academy to win things there, but we like to send them out on loan to gain first team experience. Of course a consequence of this is that sometimes they like the first team action and choose not to return.

By its very nature, there are times when an academy can go a year or two without producing the right level of player, and this is to be expected. Given the age of some of the kids we have just promoted from the academy to the first team squad, we could very well be on the verge of another great clutch of kids on which we can continue to build our dynasty.

Purely from a keeping Leeds competitive viewpoint Hauraki (from what I saw of him last season) will make a good addition to the squad.

I'd expect him to make Leeds' first choice 18 even when everyone is available.

As others have commented while he isn't a ticket selling/crowd pleasing signing he's a solid player very much in the Willie Manu mould (who lets face it) was Hull's most threatening player last season.

Rule 1. I am always right.
Rule 2. If in any case I appear wrong, refer to rule 1.

Our bench looks very good with this signing, lets hope we can get at least one game with everyone fit to chose it :lol:

Underwhelming.

Seems to be a trend with Leeds recently when it comes to overseas signings.

Not followed his carrer closely but when he played at Headingley he was by far the best player on the field that day.I doubt he's taking a huge amount of cap space so could well turn out to be quite a coup.

Saw little of him last season but was impressed with what i did see. Looked capable of making an impact and offering something a bit different like Ali. That was missing for long spells last season.

I am happy with this signing. Thought he impacted well at HQ earlier this year and perhaps is what we have been missing for sometime now. Along with Ali and Senior, he can have his own song.

I know the tune and the first three words but it requires a songsmith to finish it off please.

To the tune of "Summer Nights - J Travolta, O Newton-John"

"Weller, Weller Weller Huh ......."
