I don't rate L Anderson that highly. Surprised at this one.

it's probably only two or three, but i know what you mean, he has that impression to him, what you will see though is his name does crop up a lot on the rlf disciplinary page a lot, despite not being charged, iirc both anderson were named a lot last year.

In SL games only, Louis has been binned twice this year and none last year (according to superleague.com).

He has given 16 penalties in 32 games, despite being one of the players most involved due to his high tackle count.

all three players deserve the extra contracts landerson gets a rough time from alot fans some of it undeserved one element of his game which needs improving is the laying the ball off in tackle

hicks a steady player focused keeps his nose clean and gets on with job i think we need that sort of characther around the club

woods can the one of best props in sl simply as that

Very Good News.

I was worried by "Inside Info" from Wolfette that Hicks was heading to Union.

Get Your Facts Right Deb.

Not a big fan of the Andersons, they add little.

Wood deserves a contract, and Hicks is a solid part of our team that doesn't need to change.

hhmmm, im not totally sure that L Anderson and Hicks are good deals myself, but that's probably why Im sat at my PC all day, and not a Tony Smith.

I don't know why we all have this "In Smith We Believe" attitude, but even I do myself, it's a little strange..

cant believe what im'e reading. club bring in one of the top coaches in superleague like the fans wanted and 6 weeks in their doubting his judgement. not saying he's perfect and will make some bad calls along the way, but for now lets at least concede he knows what he's doing. with his expert knowledge he must see something in these players includind LA. come on you wire

Im more than happy with Smiths decisions so far and trust his judgement 100%.

He comes across as someone you can rely on, someone who wont let you down. Although maybe the RFL have differing views.

Its next year that Smith will be judged, thats when the team will be something like his own.

I think we have to believe really. He's perfectly qualified and has proven track record. If he fails (which I hope to god he doesnt) then things really will be bleak for us.

I think it is more tangible than belief. We have a man in charge who has proven success at reigniting a dromant club, although I appreciate Leeds had not been in as big a slumber as ourselves.
