Is rumoured to be a target of Leeds according to Dave Dosey Parker of the League Weekly.
He says Shenton is also a target but Atkins is the no1 target.

Hmm, Shenton has the potential to be a real quality player, while on his day as the phrase goes Atkins can be devestating. Personally id go with Shenton IF this rumour is true...... crap! its Dosey Parker rumour

Since he just makes his rumours up 5 minutes before his deadline, I won't read too much into it. I mean, he could be right, but only in the same way anyone might be if they made a blind guess at something.

Step forward emmers

Atkins has always been a left centre, Shenton is playing there this season and McClennan says Watkins is more suited to playing on the left. Senior (should this be his last season which is far from certain) will take some replacing.

Wheeler looked a quality youngster at St Helens again yesterday filling in at left centre for them. Quick, explosive, knows his way to the line, no mistakes or daft offloads that I can recall.

Super league winners is target for bradford, aint gonna happen tho.

What if Atkins wants to be a Super League winner?

Nosey Parker lifts most of his rumours from this forum (and by that I mean RLFANS as a whole) anyway.

Id love Shenton at Leeds, would involve a fee because FWIR hes signed up for next season isnt he.

It shouldn't be an issue for an ambitious club with a turnover of £6 million a season.

The problems for me would be: are Leeds willing to match his wages, does he want to be a smaller fish in a bigger pond, as the salary cap does it's job and Castleford become more competitive (with a potential new ground on the horizon) will he want to leave the club he has stayed loyal to through two relegation seasons?

Lets get that Lesley Vainikolo to Leeds one going again, that was ace.

He`d go to wigan, they have after all got the best team, the best youngsters, the best ground, chairman etc..superleague belongs to them..everything about sl was their idea to give us subnormal clubs a chance, in the contract it said bradford, saints, leeds can have a few yrs of silverware to lead them along before the mighty wigan revert to the top.
