Rhinos linked to Jamie Langley in 2005 up there amongst his best for me.

Remember this one? Leeds demand £100,000 to let Greg Eastwood return to Australia Didn't exactly get the money did he? As part of the agreement, the Bulldogs and Rhinos will form a partnership that is likely to see player exchanges... ...Although Leeds placed a £100,000 transfer fee on Eastwood, Rhinos chief executive Gary Hetherington said he was satisfied with the outcome.

We probably dodged a bullet with big Greg. He ended up refusing to leave the Bulldogs and being paid a huge amount of money to play in the reserves rather than take a pay cut. I don't think his 'career' meant as much to him as meat pies by the end.....

Yea. Such a wasted talent, he was a great player, and was one of the few positives from the 2010 season

Didn't Eastwood get a bottle over his head whilst out drinking in Halifax too He could have been a fantastic player for us if he had come over as originally planned in 2009 as a replacement for Gaz Ellis But sadly he couldn't get a visa due to a speeding conviction. He clearly had his head turned whilst he had to stay in Oz and played for Canterbury Bulldogs before joining us for only one season before going back to Canterbury on compassionate grounds

I genuinely think that, even though Leeds Live have said Nene MacDonald as a done deal and club haven’t confirmed it, that the deal may have fallen through. I don’t see why Leeds wouldn’t have confirmed it by now.

I thought you said he was at Headingley having his photos done?
