I see Hall coming back for a year or 2 with us to replace T.Briscoe at end of this season and Hall with be a stop gap til we find our next long term winger either in Academy or signing someone. This one might be a long shot but I could see Watkins returning to us if he isn't on bad terms with the club to replace Hurrell when his contract expires in 2021 as I feel Hurrell will want to head back to NRL and probably see out his Career there.

Hall and Watkins might return to Super League but don't think a return to the Rhinos would be good for players or club.
Neither would live up to past days.

To be fair I wouldn’t want Hall or Watkins back. They aren’t the players they once were and their Leeds run is over. I would prefer one of the Morris twins if we were going for aging wingers. Once Hurrell gets the Combos going I think we shall see a better side of him that played for Tonga, he was a beast playing for them. His confidence gets knocked to easily by the mistakes he makes. He should certainly not be used off the bench or second row, that will be a complete waste, he needs to show pretty sharpish that he is worthy or Marquee status, personally I think he will.

Watkins is only 28 if he can show he can get back to international standard this year after recovering properly from his ACL he could still be one of best centres around for 4 or 5 years still. Hall would just be a stop gap if he came back until we can find a long term replacement, Tom Johnstone for T.Briscoe for next year would be ideal for me personally but depends of Johnstone would want to come and can be stay fit himself after his injuries.

I never said it's what we need, I said it's what I expect to happen.

Tom Johnstone at Wakefield is one of their highest paid players. Could we actually fit him into our pay structure. We should have signed him before he signed his last contract with Wakefield, he is now on more money.

Leeds favourites to sign Sam Lisone according to John Davidson

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sun Feb 09, 2020 3:43 pm  

How many first team games has he played in the last two years?

Re: Transfer Talk / Rumour Thread V3 : Sun Feb 09, 2020 4:03 pm  

Is he any good?
