Didn't we sign Josh from your academy? Since then he's bulked up alot and may be a decent centre for you. Not seen much of Gregg as I can't get to many academy games but from what I have seen, he's quick and strong.

Johnson could be a top winger. He has a 'tude though it would seem and he'll need to make some major adjustments with that to get to the top. If he doesn't focus fully on his rugby he'll end up at Hunslet or wherever similar to that other lad we had a while ago who showed promise but was released for disciplinary reasons. Greg Brown or something it was.






If London is Athens, Yorkshire is Sparta, a tougher community and proud of it.

No it wasn't. It was a decent centre/winger who was released that we got from Leeds academy and ended up in obscurity.

Barlow is a 'Fax lad, second rower, signed from Fax who then went on to Widnes, Sheffield and back to Fax. He is a fruitcake.

Discipline is as much the key to becoming a great player, if not more so, than talent. The fact we can name so many is good evidence of that IMO.

Pointers are to a behind the scenes incident with regard to JG otherwise why did we not let him go before the season started?

GJ has apparently always had an attitude problem. What a waste. For his own sake I hope he overcomes it.
