The frothing comment wasn't aimed your way, JC. You did, however, allude to Ferres being a possible disruptive influence - as have several others. My point was really to query why Falloon's arrival wasn't/isn't ringing the same alarm bells?

Take your point re Falloon's past reputation, however he has since had the charges thrown out by the court so he should not carry the same risk of disruption... unless you believe that mud sticks?

its easier to be kept happy and on lesser money when winning and have the a possible job for life

Bloody hell...10 pages on a player that not one journalist or 'man in the know' has linked to us. I can't imagine the fall out if the YEP suddenly announced tomorrow that we'd snared him on a 1 year loan deal

I firmly believe it shouldn't. Falloon's past is of no consequence to me; ditto Ferres. My point was that no-one knows for sure which player, if either, poses the greater risk of disrupting team harmony. For although Falloon faced no charges, he was apparently comfortable in the company of some fairly unsavoury characters that damaged his team through association. Thinking about it, the same could be said for Ferres

If I cheat on my Mrs I upset her and that probably ends our relationship. If I shag her sister it tears a family apart. Do you see how those two things are the same offence but carry hugely different consequences? That's my point about Ferres.

Going by that example, the 'family' torn apart in question here was Huddersfield....not Leeds.

My point is still solid and valid.

Cheating on his missus with his mates missus doesn't affect Leeds Rhinos at all.

Hock is garbage and loses matches, not wins them.

Were some people on here Cheated on at some point haha.

Correct!!!!!

Big Jim, you DO have double standards. What Hardaker did (repeatedly) does affect the team because he got banned and dropped for his misdemeanours. Surely you can see that this directly affects Leeds Rhinos / rugby league in general? If I was skipper, I'd carpet him in front of the lads. So much talent, but so little brain.

Nothing Ferres has done, affects Leeds. Unless you're paranoid

...or if senior players don't feel the same way.

As for Middleton - cheating is funny? Does that mean you'll be glad if it happens and have a laugh and a pint with the guy that does it?

But if he takes a liking to a Rhinos players wife, that could be a disruption.
