If Tindall is to make it at Leeds, he needs to be the first reserve Winger at 20 years old. He might only get 4-6 games per year over the next 2-3 years, how does that improve with another Winger in front of him?
It's not how much talent you've got, it's what you do with it that counts.

If Tindall is to make it, he needs to do it because he's better than the other players. Not through lack of competition. Olpherts signing doesn't mean he's automatically in front of Tindall. I get the impressions with Smith that he'll pick who deserves it. Hopefully Tindall sees this as motivation and not a reason to down tools

Not seeing it with Tindall just yet. I agree with the posters who say it is his job to force his way into the team by performing when he's selected. He's clearly fast and at times evasive but for some reason isn't getting over the try line as much as I'd expect a young winger to do. Reminds me a bit of Dave Halley at Bradford some years ago, but I hope I'm wrong.

A pointless signing especially if it means losing Hardaker , why on earth we need three wingers when we are desperate in other positions . Never mind his age , once again we have signed a limited ability player on a long contract , another salary cap howler .

Utterly pointless signing, I can't believe that given all the SC mess we have been in and still are we are handing out 3 year contracts to 30 year old back. He's not particularly quick, that's not going to be any better at 33...
Madness.
