Played for Australia 7 times & NSW 13, we’ve pulled off a big signing!

Great signing. Prime player of origin quality, biggest signing we have made this decade, since Buderus.

Even with the 'will he, won't he' thats gone on, I still think he'll be completely committed.
He's the sort of player/bloke who becomes the heart and soul of each team he's in. He's a bit of a joker, but one that brings the group together. I believe he'll instantly become a leader within the group and will throw himself into Leeds and become an integral member of the entire club, he'll be a figurehead - and he can play a bit too. Well pleased with this.
Bring in Tapau too and we've moved from cellar dwellers to serious contenders.

I don’t think the Taupau signing was ever really on the cards TBH

Merrin will bring a lot to our squad and if it was a case of getting shut of Garbutt meant we sign Merrin Im more than happy with that.

This was just the kind of signing we needed probably the replacement we have needed for Peacock for the last 2 years

Still got a number of players available to leave too.

Mullally, Golding, Walters, Ormondroyd at least will leave the club and I think possible two more signings. One being ikahihifo and then hopefully a winger.
