Yep. Effectively an 11 or 12 game 'guest spell' depending on whether we end up in the MPG

So I guess we'll be trying to make him feel at home so that he'll commit to signing a "proper" deal.
Though my worry is that with Falloon only on a 1 year deal we could easily end up with no hookers again.

no worries, if those 2 move on it puts another 2 hookers on the market

I honk they'll look to keep him on again next season, as well as Segeyaro. In the NRL they are saying its a two and a half year deal for Segeyaro with a clause in his contract to leave if an NRL club comes in for him.

I can't see an nil team not coming in for him, there is a bit of a dearth of top class hookers atm and segeyaro is top quality

Millward on Segeyaro...

"Leeds have signed a genuine world class player. He's very dynamic, runs a lot form dummy half and is an outstanding talent.

"I think he'll change the way Leeds play, he will make their ruck quicker in attack and give the halves and outside backs greater opportunities. I think he's the kick-start the club needed and I'm sure he's going to become a big favourite over in England."

You can disregard anything Millward says, 2 weeks a go he said Zak should play centre because he is very similar to Dugan (a player at the club he works for) the very next week they deemed Dugan a ineffective at centre and moved him back to fullback

If he does the business we should dump some crap and make him an offer he can't refuse. A good 9 adds so much to how the rest of the forwards play. Invaluable.

Re: Segeyaro this week! : Sun Jun 26, 2016 11:59 pm  

Agreed. If you look at our squad we have far too many average forwards. We need to do better at identifying quality rather than quantity.

Sounds thrilled to have joined us......

''Super League-bound James Segeyaro has vowed to return to the NRL.

The 25-year-old will join Leeds for the rest of the Super League season and could debut for the club against Widnes on July 3.

Either way Segeyaro said he wants to get back to the NRL.

"I want to get back to that form that I believe I can get back to and hopefully come back to the NRL," Segeyaro told Channel Nine on Monday night.

"I have never been in this situation before, a club never wanting me. I was shocked to be in reserve grade ... they said it was best for me if I leave the club."

"We were trying to find different clubs (in the NRL). But everyone else has three or four hookers."
