I wouldn’t be surprised if we signed both Sao and Kane if green and Paea we’re leaving , plus Ellis and we haven’t replaced watts yet . We have numbers in the props department but not quality.

Glenn isn't coming.

Sau and Evans next, and maybe another back

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Sat Jun 01, 2019 11:08 pm  

what's the score with bienek?

Re: Recruitment 2020 : Sun Jun 02, 2019 7:58 am  

Id be happy with Sao and Evans, guessing Sao for the loose forward role if were signing Evans too.

Bieneks been playing for the reserves, at his age no need to be rushed, develop nicely playing reserve grade imo

Bienek's contracted for a while yet I think - is it 2021 or something? Depending on cap maybe he will get a game either side of the cup semi?

He's been playing for Batley for the last few weeks. (Playing again today.)

Bienek has zero pre season, so was way behind. He's getting his fitness back but next year will be his breakthrough year

O/T but I see Kallum Watkins has apparently been poorly treated by Leeds who are trying to renege on a back end weighted long deal handed out before his injury. Whilst it's definitely noticeable that he is a shadow of the player he was, seems harsh to treat the club captain like that given he seems a model pro. Leeds is just a basket case at present.

If this is true then players will think twice about joining Leeds. If their prepared to dump on their home game town club captain who has been the model professional and a one club man, then they will not bat an eyelid at any other player.

Some very harsh comments in this thread about Watkins form but given his runs on the board at the club you'd have thought he'd be treated well. Can't see him getting a NRL gig, maybe Leeds would seek to offload and pay some of his wages?
