Woulden't be a bad deal, he needs match fitness, we need another prop, and with the reduced interchange rule another '80 minute' prop would be handy for a few months

That's a little bit contradictory.







Fwiw, I wouldn't sign him. Happy with our 4 starting props and would rather we give gametime to Green or Bowden if we get an injury.

What we the point in getting Fielden on loan at the moment, I wouldn't have in him my 17 in front of any of our current props?



If we get a couple of injuries then maybe then.

Gentle again reiterated yesterday that 14 clubs were after Ellis and we could be with a good shot of getting him.

Might be in the minority here but i'd rather sign Whitehead than Ellis, thinking long term and salary cap wise.

I'd probably agree, would be more sensible for our squad currently (asuming we retain Manu).

In that case, no thanks. The days of getting Leeds young uns up to match fitness and speed have gone, so I don't want to be helping Wigan too (even if it is for an old un).

which 14 ?

I'd hazard a guess that every SL club would register an interest.



Personally I reckon he will be signed by Huddersfield.

Why Huddersfield?



I reckon he'll go to either Castleford with it been his home town club, but if he's coming back to and wants to play for a trophy then back to Leeds or to Wire who have a tendancy to sign big name older players on short contracts.

All 14 SL clubs, he was guest of honour at the Hull Wyke luncheon yesterday. Didn't see you there? Was a good day.

Someone on Twitter (wolfie) is welcoming Whitehead. Interesting!
