I'd heard wire posted him 40k a year, which Leeds eventually matched after offering less than 20k originally.

Lol.... agree. We need a credible replacement.[/quote]

Would be disappointed with Hampshire.
Of exisiting FBs in England I would take:
Evalds
Hanbury
Escare
O'Brien

Mamo, Barba, Shaul, Gigot and even Walker would do but all are impossible.

Personally wouldn't want either from Wakey. Or Matty Russell.[/quote]

I'd be fairly confident Mamo would be available for the right price, I would also be fairly confident he would want to come given the style of play we have down the lane.[/quote]
Really rate him. Can't see it happening though. No overseas spot have we anyway?[/quote]

I'd ditch jy at a shot to make space.

Teenage full-back Jack Walker has performed a U-turn and committed his future to Leeds.

The 17-year-old last month rejected the offer of a full-time contract after failing to receive assurances from the club over his position in the team.

But the two parties have now come to an agreement, with Walker signing the three-year deal that was originally offered to him.

Doesn’t sound like he got a better offer for me. He was too much of a gamble for any of the top 6 sides how have established full backs and wanted too much money for anyone else

We all hear different stuff but the outcome is the same, he's at Leeds on contract. Wire has the young ex-cas panthers player coming through but they've let him go to kr.

Also go look at some of the heart warming stuff on the PNG Kumuls Facebook page. Some of the bitter, twisted,miserable, negative morons that post on rugby league Facebook, Twitter and League forums should have a look at the adulation that the PNG public hold their national team in. We could all learn lessons from this I think.

Lo is having a great game so far against Ireland. 1 try and one try stopper and it's only 22 mins in.

Reminds me more like a Henderson Gill type or even a dessie Drummond style. Would be very happy with that!

With fulltime superleague training he is going to be a beast. Still a little eough round the edges but nothing that isn’t coachable relatively quickly.
