Good interview on Leeds Live today from Koni. Talks about how he loves it here so does his Mrs. Wants a new deal and is hoping to come into the season 10kg lighter, very honest saying he was carrying too much after lockdown last season. Should have a good season by the looks of it. https://www.leeds-live.co.uk/sport/rugb ... t-19936083

Personally i hope he gets another deal, albeit not a ‘marquee’ one.

I go to games to be entertained and he is all entertainment, we have some great talent coming through in the centres but theres Koni still has plenty to offer, it’s also great to see an OS player settle in after Ava snd Merrin leaving the way they did.

He seems to be good for dressing room moral too

He wants to drop 10kg so he can play at 110kg! That is bigger than ava and holroyd!

Re: Hurrell : Mon Mar 01, 2021 6:12 pm  

Yeah, I'm a fan. His physique means he'll never be able to tick every box on the field but there are some aspects he does devastatingly well. And he makes folk laugh which is no bad thing.

Bit of a modern day Steve pitchford

Totally agree. Unique specimen and genuinely good lad.i did think he looked over weight but I didnt think he was touching 120kg.

Re: Hurrell : Mon Mar 01, 2021 6:45 pm  

For me next year is stand off year and i want a truly top class 6. If Koni is willing to take a cut to stay to enable that to happen i would happily give him a new deal. Hes our biggest threat but he needs to cut out the errors.

A top class stand off wouldnt come cheap but would set the team up nicely with Gale in the halves.

Eh lets worry about this season first tho.
