No, they also have to be local and a "good lad". Ability doesn't matter.

Done nothing to convince me we should want him to stay on. We have our own youngsters in his positions, if we're going to be signing 3/4's for next year it should be finished articles. IMO, it speaks volumes that Leeds have Hall, Watkins, and Gibson all ahead of him in the pecking order, and are now losing Lee Smith but still show no sign of wanting to keep him.

Give the kid a chance ffs, Hall is playing outside a vastly experienced centre

Broughton has loads of potential and plenty of speed i would certaintly sign him

I have seen enough of him to disagree I think he would be a worthwhile investment with the potential to be a top super league back.

I cant understand that constant critiscism of Leeds 'rejects'. No team can keep all of their players with salary caps etc and lets face it a number of clubs can point out quite a few of these Leeds 'rejects' have gone on to be international stars!

That leeds though not us , we dont really have loads of young players looking like there going to make it IMO , Jodie is young and has shown glimpses of what he can do but needs some work on his defence. Also will be on a small wage which helps.By signing him doesnt mean that we might not sign a centre .

How did he play against Wakefield? I was on holiday so didn't see the game. I did see the tries though, and thought he took his two extremely well
