Yeah I've looked into that and TBH he's hardly struggled, bit of press overkill IMHO. Only real injury was a MCL strain that kept him out for 10 weeks, still managed 12 games for Norths, which is not far off SL standard. So I'm not too worried about that.

I would imagine Hankinson would be on kicking duties anyway as he has a better success % than Killer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
binosh Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 I wonder if Long is trying to bring the average age down at Featherstone? Could we see Kierallah back to Toulouse? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Decent signing and probably the sort of place SL clubs will actually find value. Defensively he's limited, poor tackler. Lots to like with the ball though. Wingers are paid to score trys whats his strike rate? Compared to other wingers,its not great or even good another big name signing not performing to his potential at Leeds.

phiggins Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 (edited) MacDonald to Leeds confirmed. The transfer fee seems to be a pre-season friendly at LSV. Edited December 1, 2022 by phiggins 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully for Leeds, he plays like he did in the first half of last season, up to and including the 1895 cup final. His form dropped off a bit after that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nene is a winger, his positioning and defence is not that of a quality SL centre. Think we regretted signing him up early in the season and using a quota spot imo Hope he does well at Leeds as he is also a nice lad with time for the fans, but not unhappy he was the spare one who left. Good to see the club digging in for something and being prepared to loan him if not, also gives an early RL fix Edited December 1, 2022 by sweaty craiq Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like both might be starting round 1... @GavWilson Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damien Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Leigh Leopards’ ace Blake Ferguson will return to Australia on compassionate grounds. Rugby League Live understands the former Australia international is due to return down under. Ferguson, who joined Leigh midway through the year to aid their quest to reach Super League, proved a valuable asset as he scored an impressive 21 tries in 17 matches, aiding them to 1895 Cup and Million Pound Game glory. However, he is now set to return home in what is a considerable blow for Adrian Lam and his squad as they prepare for their Super League return. Leigh have yet to comment on the matter. https://www.examinerlive.co.uk/sport/rugby-league/blake-ferguson-leigh-leopards-rugby-25654079 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

phiggins Posted December 1, 2022 Share Posted December 1, 2022 Ferguson is a massive loss, for his work at both ends of the pitch. He did a lot of the forwards’ work in our own half, and was able to convert half chances. Gone from having too many overseas players to having a spot free in the space of about 3 hours!
