I would personally put the Holmes statue at the Carnegie / cricket entrance just after the club shop. I would then have some like the Wembley RL statue with the golden generation. Sinfield / McGuire / Burrow / JJB / Leuluai / Peacock / Lauitiiti.

Agreed yes it is a more prominent location where you said

No Bailey? You'd have to have him in there, not least for the annoyance it would cause. I'd add Ryan Hall to the group statue, if such a thing ever gets built. Sinfield should have his own though.

I suppose it would be difficult to put a sale price on the caddick and hethrington shares. Should imagine it would run into the millions, anyway I have respect for both of them. Especially caddick,to build up several highly successful businesses from a standing start is remarkable.
Don't know much about hetherington, but I gather he started off with very little ,so best of luck to him.

I think Hetherington remortgaged his house so he could found Sheffield Eagles

Move to cricket pitch : Tue Apr 11, 2017 7:18 am  

Leeds are considering moving games to the cricket pitch while development is going on.

I say it's a good option. Yorks could move to Scarborough for the last few County championship games but still play their lucrative T20 games at Headingley. The logicstics shouldn't be too hard to get around.

Players could twist their ankles on the little divots that batsmen make at the crease.
