Could it happen? Out of favour at the Rhinos? A position where we would benefit from having a more cutting edge, and another academy product who could slot back into the fold? |

Ken does seem keen on getting homegrown or hometown players back to the club (heard rumours about Murphy from Wakefield from next year too) and would love to see Kruise back as Hooker is an area we really need to strengthen. Can't see it happening, apart from cap issues he's their captain isn't he? |

Leeming is not out of favour at the Giants he is injured. Why is hooker an area we need to strengthen There is Peats O Brien Goulding Roby |

Because none of them area anything other than ordinary sadly. Levi made a huge difference last year, and 9 is one of the most important positions in the modern game to get rewards from our pack getting good go forward. You can hardly be inspired by us currently having a 9 who has been doing the rounds in lower divisions. He does a job and nothing more, we need more than that to push for trophies. |

You must watch a different game to me. Peats has a far superior all round game to Levi. Levi offered energy around the ruck but had poor distribution which often slowed play down. Peats is Not quite as quick off the mark but has accurate distribution to either side and is also a better defender. Hence why he has played origin for NSW. |

I agree about Peats, his passing in the last two games has been spot on. Peats defense is also good I think in the first game he made 57 tackles, he isn't as dynamic to watch as Levi, but he is certainly a very consistent performer quietly going about his business and always putting in at lest a 7 out of 10 every game. |

Better all round game than Danny Levi? Levi was high in the man of steel rankings for nearly all of last year, i was watching the games the people that made those decisions were watching. Peats was playing for Toulouse before we picked him up, and Levi has gone back to the NRL playing for Canberra so i think my judgement is rather sounder than yours. Peats is a journeyman player who as you say has a decent all round game, theres lots of those playing for wakefield too! |

Levi is the best number 9 we've had since a certain Bradley Drew but that's just my opinion. |

Well you were correct about him being out of favour and leaving Leeds. Still don't see us making a move for him though, with Peats on a three year deal. For what it's worth I still rate Levi above the whole bunch, but that's all water under the bridge now. |
