No idea, some people on here said we were so it must be true.

Also all over the media and didn't Hetherington say we were?

Hetherington said we weren't after Briscoe until he signed. he says its raining I look outside

Was true ..well if beeb is reliable www.bbc.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/34713171 Mind don't believe GH would have gone for him even if available...Koukash was also interested so more likely to wind him up.

They thought we had Burgess signed, hence why we pulled out of Westerman and Clarke deals. Burgess was a lot of money. Burgess obviously only wanted Aus return. Massive mistake made over that deal, with what we lost, but on the other hand had they pulled it off it would have been some game changer.



I think looking at what we have tried to do over last couple of years, and the messages coming out, that it looks certain a deal is agreed for Widdop for next year. Just my gut feel, nothing else.

Id welcome the Widdop signing G but still think we need more namely a linebreaking Prop & a BR in the mould of Moors.

Certainly would've been a game changer and we'd be a very different looking side right now had it happened. Wouldn't it Tad?



I've wanted Widdop at Leeds since seeing him and Sinfield together in the WC. Really hope it comes off.

Moley on Twitter seems to think Leeds are showing major interest.

Well they better get it tied up soon because many more performances like this morning and Widdop won't be leaving the NRL, he was excellent.

Good to hear. Hopefully the rumours have begun because he actually wants to come live and work in England, rather than him not being good enough for the NRL anymore.

He would be a great fit for us, and still in his prime.would be a wonderful signing were it to happen.

it would be a signal of intent too

GH came out post Thursday and said nobody would be signed. I don' t know how far ward, ferres and JJB are from being fit but it was blindingly clear on Thursday that Walters and keinhorst cannot play long minutes in the back row. I like keinhorst as a player and at centre and he worked very hard but is not a proper second row.



Wakey today signed dean Hadley for a month. He is no world beater but is 24 and is a solid SL second rower. With a big Catalan pack coming, I think he could have helped out a bit and improved us.



I don't get why Leeds would not even consider such a loan signing when we are Already in injury crisis mode after 4 games. Not saying he will change the world but he can tackle and is better than what we put out last week.

Agreed, he's not a seoond rower. At best, he can perhaps fill in there for occasional spells when required but not the whole game.



Tried his guts out on Thursday in the second row (one of the few players whose attitude on the night could not be called into question) yet, according to the match stats, he clocked up no less than 9 missed tackles.
