I didn’t think he was bad at Manly. Not worked out at Wigan really.

I get the point of giving sinfield an opportunity but at least smith pushing for something proves he’s not put the cue in the rack.

Realistically who else is available for the rest of the year?

Can’t see Salford letting Croft go.

Surely that multi year contract says they would - but only for the right fee?

It starts to scare me on how little business we have done and what there is available. We are losing a lot of players and maybe there is a reason why, because it’s not god behind the scenes. We already have a lot of cap available to use now and will have an incredible amount next season with marquee spots available. If I was Caddick now I would be saying to Gary go and get Croft now pay the money. Try for a full back aswell. Give them what we can up to the cap this year and then give Croft and marquee contract. Why not? But we won’t though because we are Leeds and we go for the cheap option, then panic and get some money grabbing waster in. We will get left behind if we are savvy with business.

He's played well? When was that?

Last year, that’s what Wigan fans are saying.

That's outrageous. You really think Callum Walker would trawl message boards seeking rumours to write about?


Not a chance. He'd let someone else do that then copy their output..

That’s a fair point

Jeez it really does look bad when the poster who's 'in the know' is panicking. It seems like us pessimists sts were on to something all along.

Anyway unsurprisingly Calum Walker was talking rubbish, Cust deal is not a thing apparently

Couldn’t agree more. We should demand nothing less than top drawer recruitment for next season. Go get Croft now too.

Oh, I was just getting used to the idea.

Anyway. It's a disgrace we cant even get players of Custs calibre!
