Is "6 again" a RL rule? My bad, I thought it was in reference to the number of new accounts LeBron makes on RLFans annually. :THINK:

Leeds have become a dirty team the past few years. That’s why all their best players always want to leave and are left with players no one else wants. Coupled with a poor academy that’s why they are no now a mid table team


Go on then, I'll bite.

Which players in our squad do no one else want?

Which best players want to leave?

What makes the academy (who have just signed the England Lions captain) so bad?

The new young dynasty of super saints is coming to a ground near you.
Welsby-Dodd-Simms-Eaves-Rizzelli, not Eastmond...the future is coming.

1. For the top 4 clubs, probably most of them not on the wanted list.

2. Newman one of the better players will leave for the best money.

3. Academy pretty poor last season Wigan and St Helens finished the season with almost double the match points that Leeds could muster, pretty much similar to the first team.

Leeds has the entire Yorkshire catchment area to themselves and still has a terrible academy.

It’s not the players fault, it’s the clubs fault fur having such poor coaches.

'Top 4 clubs', 'probably', and 'most of them', is not the same as 'players no one else wants'. You are speculating and grasping at straws.

Rumour is that he is about to re-sign his Leeds contract up until end of 2027. Anyone else not want to be there?

Whilst the on field results might have been disappointing, there is no denying that there are some quality players there. International coaches seem to agree.

You might want to brush up on your Rugby League knowledge.

7 out of the 10 clubs in the Academy Competition are in Yorkshire. If anything, Leeds have stiffer competition than Wigan, Wire or Saints, in regards to recruiting youth players.

I've noticed you've swerved the other questions.

Paul Anderson selected 14 players from St Helens, Wigan and Warrington and only 7 players from the Yorkshire teams in the England Academy 21 man squad. The contribution from Leeds Academy was very poor from a large catchment area. the far reaches of Hull and Hull KR look more promising whilst Leeds appear to be resting on ones laurels.

Leeds have recently signed the England Lions captain. Hardly resting on laurels.
