This rigidity could be one explanation as to the lack of quality coming through the academy - i.e. lack of quality entering the system?
I agree mate & that's what happened wrt Cameron Smith.

Unfortunately money does talk especially as the old fallback of players can earn more money elsewhere but prefer to stay at Leeds and win trophies does not appear to ring true these days. Hopefully we can address this otherwise we will see more of the younger prospects heading for the likes of Hull and Cas not to mention Wigan, Wire and Saints.

Not sure yet. Do you know if this is a training session or a real game?

Do you know, I really used to like this forum once upon a time. Whilst never a bone fide regular, the witty banter regarding glass coffee tables and cake was genuinely very good. Such a shame that a few individuals have turned it into a toddlers tantrum borefest with a 'my dad's harder than yours' attitude.
Pretty much reflective of the on the field performances we have seen served up by the 1st team over the past 12 months.
Mods. Sort it out.
