He was a very strong runner and also a good finisher but i don't think his all round game was worthy of a SL contract at our club

I'd also be very surprised if he is retained after his trial at HKR

IMO he will be unveiled as a coup signing at a Hunslet,Batley or Dewsbury club in the near future

Or wakey

Played I think roughly the same time Gibson got his call up. When we still had gb teams and Cullen was in charge of england

Funnily enough I googled him last week to see where he was now. All I could find was that he still played at Newcastle but not regularly. Good to have him back though. He had a lot of potential and I'm sure he will do well at KR

He seemed to get. A bit of first team games in his first season but the last few years I have kept a eye out whenever they are on tv but not seen him all year

I imagine tvoc would be a little disappointed with that effort overall. Although I think I can see what you've done there. Ryan Hall can have that effect on some people.

www.Hullkr.co.uk wrote:Hull Kingston Rovers have taken former Leeds Rhinos winger and England international Danny Williams on a month's trial. Williams, 24, scored thirteen tries in fifteen appearances for the Rhinos between 2006 and 2008, with loan spells at Castleford Tigers and Hull FC in the same period.


Danny Williams scored 12 tries in his Leeds career which consisted of 18 appearances including 3 from the bench.

Barely featured at Leeds after his debut season in 2006 (only adding the 3 from the bench in 2008) so it would be pretty difficult to judge where he's at right now. Although obviously he'll still be a better option than Willie Mason.

Head hung in shame.






Quote:Every player in our squad could probably earn more money with another club. But they prefer to sacrifice a few extra quid in their back pocket to share special memories. And playing at a place like Old Trafford on a night like this makes it all worthwhile.

I can't recall where he played off the bench in that (his 18th and final) Leeds appearance but he provided a game changing cover tackle on Adam Fletcher forcing him into the corner flag and preventing Castleford going 14 points clear (without the kick) before Leeds had opened their account for the afternoon.

Willie Mason is now earning £350k per year at Toulon about the same wages as Peacock, Maguire and Sinfield added together.

Good luck to the man I don't know why everyone keeps wanting to have a pop at him.






I couldn't hear the robin sing if not for you.
