RE-Amor i think he's improved out of sight from the "rabbit in the head-lights" we saw last year and the Wakey fans want him FT.
In terms of him being ready for a team with top 4 ambitions i'd rather give him a chance as 5th prop before signing Moore because as it stands i see us lining up with JP ,Bailey ,Kylie ,Griffin(AFIK he's still coming)
then of course we've re-signed Kirke and have the potential in Singleton and Syron.
All this and still no apparent room for Ambler so again i don't see why we've signed Moore and even considering kylies retirement next year i'd stll look within the squad before spending money on Moore.
Maybe IF Kylie left at the end of the year and kirke was moving on it would make more sense [ui personally [/ujust don't see it.

I'd rather have Moore than Griffin. I suspect we are getting both. Meh.

I'd rather have either than Ambler, but again - meh.

I like Moore. But I also like Griffin. There;s only one way to find our which one is the best............................fight!

Do Crusaders still have to play Hudds at all?

Hence your waist line.

Guffaw

also maybe with kylie and jp being no spring chickens and all perhaps they will be not seeing as much action next year

Peacock was 28 on his Leeds debut.

The 29 club are: Mullins, Collins, Adamson, Jackson, McAvoy, Barnhill, Anselme and Mercer second time around.

Powell was 32 (although closer to 33) and Leeds' second oldest SL Era debutant only behind the second coming of Dean Bell who was 34 for his solitary appearance as a Leeds SL player.

Are you seriously comparing Richard Moore to Jamie Peacock?

How old was Dave Furner? 31?

He thought he'd got away with nobody noticing that.

Heard today from one of players that Amor is being released........so we get Moore instead what a joke !!

No - I was just making the point that players best years are very hard to predict. Some are late developers and I think in this sense JP and Moore can be compared - JP famously had his spell at Wollongong University and Moore seemed to be a classic wasted talent big daft lad until he knuckled down at Wakey.

If that is the case then I think it is a disgrace. The guy was put out on loan to prove his worth. From all accounts he has done that and shock horror we let him go and retain Kylie and Kirke and sign Moore and Griffin. The mistake there is the resigning of Kylie and Kirke without giving Amor a chance next year. So our two wonder signings in Coady and Amor and the investment in these two has come up with a big fat zero.
It is no wonder players don`t fancy coming to Leeds either from within the UK and also Australia. Didn`t we lose out to Warrington for some of our young guns recently too?

Yes we did, his name was Micky Learmonth and he played for Hunslet Warriors and was also a member of the Rhinos scholarship this year too

There's quite a lot of embarrassing knee-jerking going on in this thread. I think people need to calm down a bit and actually think before they post over the top stuff like "it's a disgrace" or "rubbish" or anything similar.

The same Kyle Amor that most on here was happy to label as not up to it even in the second row, is now somehow the best prop at the club. Ambler who was the greatest prospect at prop since Lazarus is now suddenly useless. The club, who many criticised for letting 2 props go due to our perceived lack of props, is now being criticised for signing 2 props to replace them.

Only on Southstander.

32 and 3 days, V Whitehaven at Headingley in the Challenge Cup.

Furner shares a birthday with Steve Pitchford, David Hulme and Danny Buderus, don't tell anyone I told you though.

Yes that`s the chap apparently a pretty decent prospect by all accounts too.
And FWIW I actually rated Amor ahead of Ambler and felt he had raw talent. Barry Mac said something similar that he would be a good signing for us.
