Burgess wouldn't have been.
So how much would Widdop cost then? That's if he'd even consider Leeds after the appalling way Segeyaro's been treated of course...

No idea, some people on here said we were so it must be true. Also all over the media and didn't Hetherington say we were?

They thought we had Burgess signed, hence why we pulled out of Westerman and Clarke deals. Burgess was a lot of money. Burgess obviously only wanted Aus return. Massive mistake made over that deal, with what we lost, but on the other hand had they pulled it off it would have been some game changer.
I think looking at what we have tried to do over last couple of years, and the messages coming out, that it looks certain a deal is agreed for Widdop for next year. Just my gut feel, nothing else.

Certainly would've been a game changer and we'd be a very different looking side right now had it happened. Wouldn't it Tad?
I've wanted Widdop at Leeds since seeing him and Sinfield together in the WC. Really hope it comes off. Moley on Twitter seems to think Leeds are showing major interest.
