I've been watching him with interest too! Although I cordially dislike the Broncos!

But he's been very good in a poor side, hasn't he? Very impressive and one of their best on the paddock last week..

He has been and he looks to be filling out physically. If he continues as he is and improves even further then he’ll lock one centre spot down for England. I must admit I wasn’t seeing the hype at times last season but he’s clearly worked hard in the off season and is playing out of his skin so far this season.

Following a similar path to Jack Reed. The Broncos know how to spot potential

Too injury prone. Oh wait a minute, he will fit in well.

So it'd be Farnworth and Gildart fighting for that left centre spot?

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Thu Apr 01, 2021 10:34 am  

Just wondering what happened to the better-version-of-Konnie that the Warriors replaced him with; Solomone Kata. Like a lot of these outside backs, he cleared off the Union, apparently. Radradra went, RTS is going, Vunivalu's gone...

For England you mean? I'd have them as the two centres.

He’s done okay at Leeds with injuries, 38 games over 2 seasons is not bad going, certainly not for someone injury prone. His performances have been good too (twice in the dream team I think?). The problem is he’s marquee I think and probably the reason Leeds want shut if there is any truth in the matter and also must be coming up to 30. If there wasn’t a salary cap I’d be well up for him coming but I think the money can be spent better elsewhere.

John Wells adding more fuel to the fire on JH, there.

Re: Rumours and signings v9 : Thu Apr 01, 2021 7:07 pm  

Anybody hear John Wells at the end? Talking about French and Hardaker fighting over the 1 shirt and then saying French will be needed in the halves from what he has heard. I thought the rumours got put to bed last week? Anyone else heard Hastings is going?would seem odd he would play tonight if so.
