Could they fit him in under the 2010 salary cap if they'd signed him without losing other players they hoped to retain at the end of 2009 (on the basis that Eastwood will be here in 2010).

He's decent player, but lacks out and out pace. Doubt he'd be at the right price point.
There's an experienced international centre at HKR that they might part with ;)

Not sure GH would think he is the right player.Tony Smith also didn't as why else would he let him go.

Do you mean Chev if so I'm sure he'd jump at the chance of playing at Headingley again.Whether he would be our best option I'm not so sure.

You can't keep umming and arring about the quality and the cost. Gleeson still is, along with Senior one of the two best English centres playing the game. Gleeson still is the best English right centre playing the game. Or am I mistaken in that opinion?

Who knows why Tony Smith didn't want him at Warrington anymore. It could have been for a whole multitude of reasons, no-one on here knows.

If Leeds have to wait for the right player, in the right circumstance and at the right price (does that mean cheap?) then they're not really out there in the market place at all are they.

No it doesn't mean cheap nor should it mean paying over the odds for a player either.Gleeson is 30 next month and I think £100k his over priced.

Gleeson was born May 1980 wasn't he, which would make him 28 now and 29 sometime next month.

The transfer fee is about right for an almost 29 year old current first choice England International centre with a wealth of experience and talent. Possibly heading towards on the cheap side given the dearth of quality centres out there.

Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.

Gasnier on a free transfer, for 19k per year. That'd do.

:lol:
Would you really want us to sign Gleeson though tvoc? Given all the rumoured off field problems?
Part of me thinks we should be in the market for a player as obviously talented as Gleeson. The other half thinks that he'd be a complete waste of money.
