There aren't many players that fit the bill, in terms of quality, position, longevity etc. So yeah, if a couple of targets fell through there may be no suitable second choice. On the upside we are taking the long-term 'SmokeyTA approach' to developing the squad (currently looking like no overseas signings in two consecutive recruitment cycles), which is financially prudent and will make the RFL smile on us a little more come franchise renewal. There is no doubting though that a top or semi-competent but powerful prop would improve us/give another option. We look a bit one paced in the front row as it stands.
I dont think youre recruitment has finished from what i hear.

I heard a rumour in the pub on Saturday night that "giddyupoldfella" makes up ludicrous rumours of absolutely no standing that any old spanner would instantly see through.
Any truth in it?
If there is no struggle, there is no progress. Those who profess to favor freedom, and yet depreciate agitation, are men who want crops without plowing up the ground. They want rain without thunder and lightning. They want the ocean without the awful roar of its many waters. This struggle may be a moral one; or it may be a physical one; or it may be both moral and physical; but it must be a struggle.

Leeds have published there squad numbers for next season, and Matt Diskin is number 14, I doubt if he was going anywhere he would have been given a squad number, last year on his contract mind.
