Leeds are being linked with Hep Cahill again, along with Wigan, Hull, and Cas. Seems odd, I don't remember him doing much of note since tripping Rob Burrow and getting sent off in a CC game a few years back.

On the down side' seems to get a fair few injuries and can give penalties away. On the plus side, big, tough and gets through a lot of carries and tackles when fit, plus can offload. Not a signing that's going to sell many season tickets but then if true that all those teams are in for him, he must have something.

I was hoping Leeds might sign another mid season recruit from down under to provide an end of season boost given we have a spare place on the roster (if I have that right, I can't really follow current rules). A young, mobile back rower would be good.

Peter Hiku on his way to Wire apparently.

Would love him at HQ!

Wouldn't be overly bothered by Hiku, decent player but another one who I'm not sure what his best position is and in terms of outside backs not entirely convinced he's better than what we've got.

No on Cahill for me as well. Always thought he was average at best with the added bonus of penalty /error machine. Bit of a crock too.

If we are signing a half I wouldn't mind Myler. While I agree he regressed to an extent at Wire I think he's come good again at Catalan the last two years. Been good when I've seen him which is sometimes difficult in that team.

Hiku is a solid NRL player who lucked his way to rep honours through injuries to others.

He will be sold without being spectacular in SL. Certainly not the messiah Wire need.

Myler and Cahill are Headingley bound in 2018 according to League express and Dave Parker respectively. Can understand Myler but we don't need another back rower

I would have took Wardle for our backrow in an instant had we been successfull with that. But of course he looks like he has put other teams above us.

Maybe Cahill is replacing Delaney?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V2 : Tue Jun 20, 2017 7:47 pm  

Judging by Cahill signing I would assume that either Delaney or JJB is retiring. I can't see why else we would need him. Cahill a few years ago was one of the top peroforming players in SL but I can't see it happening again. Still reckon there will be quite a number of outs this year, especially with a number of out of contract.

Not sure if I heard this right today but the CEO at Cas was saying Sale were in for a Rhinos winger or a Cas winger and probably felt it was going to be easier taking on the smaller club or words to that effect. Could that have been Ryan Hall?
And if so would we have been happy to take 200k for him?

Cahill having a good game tonight. Sky say he's been Widnes best player this year. He's been very good in tackling and making metres tonight for me.
