I am not on twitter, can you post a link? There is nothing on the Leeds forum at the moment on this.

I don't know how to post a Twitter search link but I saw something on the Leeds transfer forum so searched Twitter for Jake connor and ordered them by latest first and quite a few came up. May just be a rumour spreading on social media but I hope it isnt true and we start playing him in a settled position and treating him like the star he is rather than moving him around every time someone gets injured. Hes our only 1st choice international and should be greated like it. Hes our best centre but hasn't played there for weeks, mainly due to Kelly's injury I appreciate but we should give Carlos a go at 6 imo. No wonder connor looks pizzed off

" ......Leeds Rhinos aren’t expected to make any more high-profile signings ahead of next season. The Rhinos have made a number of moves in the transfer market, signing five players during the year as well as securing Huddersfield back rower Alex Mellor for 2020, with the club’s hierarchy considering the current crop as a good enough squad to compete next year. Their overseas quota is also full, meaning they can’t recruit overseas players".

I'd be surprised if they had the cap space for connor but I guess it depends who they can offload. If he were going I would have thought the NRL more likely

I'm sure he does but if he doesn't start playing centre again he may not get a spot in the England team in the autumn

Actions speak louder than words, and from is action at 6, the sooner he gets back in the centres the better

He is nowhere near good enough for the NRL.
Undoubtedly gifted but lacks pace for the NRL and defence is questionable at times.
Lets get him back into the right centre.Ratus form has dipped since Connor was moved to 6.
We need to have more of a settled team if we qualify for the play offs so lets start against Huddersfield with what is our best balanced team by moving Tuimavave to left centre and Griffin off the bench in the second row to add some impact
