kevin sinfield is coming on a 5 year deal worth 12 million krone,he will be sponsored by bessie arderns.
i think latchford has overdone it on the sherry,possibly the most ludicrous statement he has made to date.

[quote="the flying biscuit"]spot on it...I really cant remember the last time he missed a kick...he's as good as Frano Botica was for Wigan....quote]

Frano Botica is probably the best kicker in league I've ever seen in the last 30 years.

When I was young I did see Whitehead and Hesford but perhaps a bit too young to remember how good they were (Hesford was awesome I'm told).

And I thought he could play rugby......

I really cannot see Sinfield leaving Leeds ever...

What about McGuire and Bridge, 6 and 7 ?
Just an idea but like Sinfield, I can't see him leaving the Super League Champions to come and join a bunch of looney's running around in circles

Hesford was a great kicker and a big strong player too.
He was also the only player i've seen take a penalty kick for touch from the ground and not from his hands. set up as if it was a conversion.
He did this quite regularly and with great effect as there was less chance of him slicing it as happens occasionally when kicked out of the hands.

Fair bit of competition though.
