I was looking forward to watching Sivo, I think he would have been very entertaining and also a bit of a liability particularly in defence.

Wish him a speedy recovery. Things not really gone his way for a couple of years now hope he makes a full recovery and we get to see him back playing in 2026.

Do they get any cap dispensation for this? I can't imagine he's come over for peanuts so it's potentially starting with a big handicap.

Yes his salary won't count on the cap.

They'll get the dispensation if they want it but I suppose it'll come down to the powers that be wanting to spend more money. They'll still need to pay Sivo but you'd imagine a club the size of Leeds will look to bring a replacement in.

Good luck to Sivo in his recovery.

Hope Sivo has a full recovery. Really tough was that.

Leeds can get a dispensation. off the salary cap as he hasn't played a game. Whether they bring someone in remains to be seen.

They have Miller at full back to come into the team.
That could give them a back line of Handley, Newman, Connor & Hall with Riley Lumb as back up.
It might be Leeds chose to hold the money as quite often a star quality falls out of favour and becomes available. Especially in the NRL.

Alfie Edghill as well.

To be honest I think they will stick with Connor at fullback. He’s a significantly better player than Miller and has natural ball playing ability.

Miller is a decent runner and tackle buster. I think they will go with him on the wing when he’s fit.

I think the issue for us is that we have based our set up to have 2 wingers who can break the line and finish from 10/15 yards out.
Neither Edgell or Lumb, Handley or Miller can do that so if the RL say we can bring in a quota player I think that is where we will look.
Interestingly the RL do not have a rule for bringing in an overseas player which is comical to say the least. Dispensation yes but not yet overseas!
