DavidM Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Holbrook’s had him sussed , the hooking role down there needs a lot more in terms of impact and threat out of dummy half than he provides . Probably do ok here 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoubleD Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 Jeez Leigh really are scraping the barrel now..............I was expecting a lot more from them in terms of signings, on the back of the big statements after being let in.

Eddie Posted March 22, 2021 Share Posted March 22, 2021 I don’t think Leigh are in much danger of going down. I bet Wakey wish they’d voted to withhold the whole Sky money now, and maybe to promote Oldham instead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaves was only for two weeks then to be decided on a week by week basis, so presumably was just a stop gap until they could sort the Peats signing.

Exactly, Antipodeans have been willing to travel, but at a higher fee than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any travelling problem is usually Brits not wanting to even cross the Channel, let alone go to Australia. In fact, some of them didn't even like the idea of crossing the Pennines. 1 "We are easily breakable, by illness or falling, or a million other ways of leaving this earthly life.

I think if there was an opportunity to get Eaves for the full season then Leigh would've snapped Saints hand off and used the quota/cap elsewhere, this just provides a solution for the rest of the year as i'm sure Eaves will be getting a few games at Saints once the fixtures start to stack up. Decent enough signing for us and adds some quality if he can get some form, but more importantly adds depth and competition for places, just need to get those remaining quota spots filled now with another outside back and 2nd rower.

Going to be a long season for them Whoever got promoted was always going to be scraping the barrel, pretty much every top level team in both hemispheres had finalised or were in the process of finalising their squads, so the chances of picking up massive quality without throwing irresponsible amounts of money around were slim to none. The only hope for any promoted club in 2021 was always going to be assembling a squad with a point to prove with the hope they can be greater than the sum of their parts.

Not really, both players started off at Souths, both played rep footy and both careers ended at the Titans, both play hooker and both are extremely ordinary Edited March 22, 2021 by DoubleD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neither would I. When I have seen him he's looked a good prospect, shame he hasn't got more game time considering he's 23 now. Hope to see more of him at Saints this year. Not seen much of Peats, but there must be something about him to reach the levels he has? Certainly offers another option at hooker rather than just running with Liam Hood.
