Ratu has potential to become a top class centre and possibly see's the development and chance Welham has been given as a good place to come.

As he's a left centre Welham is going to have to be very good to keep his place and I also see this as competition for Foxy because he does seem to have it easy right now with nobody good enough to challenge his No.2 shirt.

Webster I cant see staying past the end of his contract, he's a very good player but as we need to reduce the quota at the end of next year someone like Ratu gives us more options for that position even though its the right hand side.


Cheers Nick, nice to see a decent reply.

Personally can't help but wonder what he brings to KR, who he is replacing and why Leeds are letting him go.

One worth watching!!






I'm gonna spit all over you, by accident of course.

:lol: Surely signing Hall in a year's time would be a kick in the teeth for Ratu? :wink:

Seems strange that in todays climate, homegrown quota's etc etc that Leeds would let a future star go?

On the otherside of the coin, if he is worth the dollar, who's place is he taking?

We've no problems with our quota and the cap is proving that you can't keep every player you produce.
We also have a very rigid wage structure which GH won't break for anyone.
The way ratu sees it is he's better off at rovers both contract and playing 1st team wise and good luck to the lad.
Afterall he isn't joining the SL timebomb that is HFC is he???

Why, are you only allowed one player for every position?

Timebomb??.....Exploded a while ago chief!!!

So Leeds wouldn't pay him what he thought he was worth??

Or give him a first team slot?

Why?

There are systems in place at leeds that have worked well for us and obviously ratu see's this as an oppurtunity to play more 1st team games and earn a good SL wage he isn't the 1st and won't be the last.
