Briscoe, with Ash Handley spending a lot more time at Fev than last season due to fewer injuries to Rhinos' first choice wingers.

that's very prophetic of you Steve re Leeds injuries

                   I see Duckworth as a future centre,he has the size and pace and his defence is ok.Not an easy position to play in the modern game but i think he could make the change.Coach him in what is required and see if he can develop the handling skills a centre needs.

I wonder how we will line up for the Halifax game. It is just 3 weeks away and seems ludicrously early as a pre-season fixture, some 6 weeks before our first game.

 

JS says it will be a mixture of 'old and new'. Let's see.

 

These games usually just tend to be for fitness and fans as most teams do not even start working with a ball until January.

Halifax are going dual reg with Salford.Their coach mentioned us as benefitting with using four Leeds players at times in the team.

 

The other offer was from Leigh which I would have preferred but it seems there is still quite a lot of dirt been slung Degsy's way by one or two ex players and we wanted no part of it as we could in theory have ended up with some players tied in to that.

 

Anyway needs must.

I remember in the nineties we spent nearly 400k on players like Currier ,Molloy ,Aston ,Casey etc but when I mentioned spending 75 k on a class player in 2016 when we get 40k per month paid to us I got hammered on this forum by certain people well I wont forget

when we are getting 40 k per month I got hammeted on this forum from certain people

What income did we generate from selling players back then when compared to the present day?

I know we got 200 k plus for Newlove and transfers were big numbers in the old days but it has been rumoured we got a fee of 60 k for Zak which could have paid the wages for a half decent player dropping down to our league.

 

For 60K you could get 3 very good players at this level.

 

On the transfer front I remember Deryck Fox turning us down to move to Bradford for about 100K.
