Still desperate for props.

This really worries me, I feel we need 2 props but I don't see many no fed props available.

I stated about 5 weeks ago,as from Nov 1st,Luke Thompson (British) is a free agent.How much he will want however is another matter.Marquee player perhaps,that`s if we don`t already have one.

We all have opinions on what is needed for next year to compete , it’s everyone’s opinion we need a couple of big experienced props , easy to say , hard to find .
Another opinion of mine is we have signed and re signed a couple of players who would struggle to get into a SL first team , we have given contracts to a couple who couldn’t get into our team last year , granted they won’t be in big contracts , but if you put them together , maybe we could bid for a big experienced prop.

Nope, and I don't listen to rumours at this time of year. People are bored and love making things up!

Confirmed by the club that Nene MacDonald has joined Leeds, and we'll play Leeds at LSV on Sun 22/01 in a friendly. https://twitter.com/leighrlfc_/status/1 ... AxkAV7QZbg

I’d take a punt and say a condition of us releasing him from his contract was a friendly at with full strength with the gate receipts our way.

It’s been reported tonight that Fergo will leave the Club on compassionate grounds,as soon as possible.

If it is true about Fergie, and Nene has moved on to Leeds, that now means we have a quota spot available which widens the search for a good middle or two.
