I disagree with 'you'....

A large chunk of cap space? Proof?
He has offered very little? In your opinion, for mine, he was one of our stand out players in the little time he did actually play, caused by two freak injuries.
He was an unnecessary signing? Why unnecessary? Shouldn't we try to improve our squad? Which in my opinion, his signing did.
I'm sorry to see him go? I'd be unhappy to see him go!

[i"We're just looking forward to getting back out on the field, I think. We can take confidence from last week. We defended well and the boys had a good time out there. It was a trophy we wanted to win, =#FF0000but we've got to build up and have another crack at it next year. We have got to start from scratch and get back into it in Super League." [/i

Rather than leaving early it sounds like he's after extending his stay.

good.

In all honesty unless he's in our top 3 performers and Mcshane doesn't look like making the breakthrough(which i think he does btw) that's only time i'd even consider extending his stay and then it'd be on reduced deal in terms of $$.
We will need to give young Mcshane a go sometime soon and i wouldn't want to risk losing him or Disko for an extra yr out of Buderus.

He'll need Leeds to find some forwards capable of winning the collision and generating quick play the balls first. Whoever they are, they haven't managed it for the first five weeks of the season.

If we let him go we could use the money to pay of the governments debt, sort the economy out and finish the olympic stadium.

Does DB represent a successful signing? I'm split 50-50 at the moment. In fairness, that's almost certainly because he spent so long injured. Nonetheless, it's how he performs during the remainder of his contract that will determine how I'll remember his stay.

His last contract in Aus was worth more than 200k per season but oh no, he's over here for 50k.






LOL at italics bit.

Our best player? Nowhere near. How many games did he play?

For the reputation he came with not doing a lot wrong isn't really good enough. You obviously think it is.



How much cover do we need at 9? We won SL last year without him. How do you know he is passing on his experience to Mcshane?



Bless.

Oh he's worth it after all if he had one good game.



I suppose me waiting 18 months for it to happen was impatient of me.

like last year?

You think he took a pay cut to come to England? Maybe so but if you think he's over here as one of our cheaper players you and the others are deluded.



I can't even remember him playing he was that non existent.




how many hookers do we need?

If he does i'll still have been right. After all, who signs a player to start in Feb 09 expecting them to finally hit their straps in Oct 10. You obviously.

SNORT

please dont patronise it doesnt make you look anymore intelligent than what your already not.

dont go using buderus as the scapegoat because its already been said here was leeds best player up to getting injured and hasnt done alot wrong this year but then again who has so far this year.
And you cant say that having one of the best hookers of his generation at the club is not a good thing for Mc Shane

17 appeances, 7 line breaks, 2 tries, 3 assists, yup he was very non existant.

but one thing stats dont show is how leeds look sharper when buderus is on the field.

P.S are you KEN GREINJERK?

that must be the reason your a bit daft

[i"If I can find the money, I'd love to get Bedsy back in Newcastle," Burraston said last night. "But there are a couple of issues. Number one is that we cannot be enticing a player to break a contract with another club and he's got a deal with Leeds."[/i

I take it Burraston was not involved at the Manly club in 1996 then. They didn't seem to have any qualms when doing just that when luring the contracted Craig Innes away.

This Burraston sounds a character. I particularly like this comment after the recent drug problems surrounding the Knights:

[i"Players have been in trouble before, but when it comes to the alleged distribution of narcotics, it's something that's very different for all of us. Many people have asked the question, "Surely someone knew?" Unfortunately it's a difficult pill to swallow."[/i

Interesting link. I wonder if Buderus really isnt enjoying life at Leeds?

Anyway i think Blue and Amber should get on the phone to the Knights and try telling them that Buderus is not worth the money. After all Blue and Amber has got many coaching credentials

Without a directly attributable quote it's nothing more than a furphy.

Yep true. It cant be all that good for him tho. Limited game time. Very bad luck with injuries. I wouldnt blame him if he left. Although I reckon it will all change during the summer, he will hit form and hopefully sign another contract.

Scapegoat for what?



Oh. if someone said it on here, it must be right then.



For a man of his supposed talent "hasnt done alot wrong this year" is not good enough.



If his on the field work at Leeds is anything to go by i'd be keeping him away from McShane.



I'm not sure how we have coped all these years without him offering all the above.

Less than 1 line break every two games?
2 tries in half a season?
3 assists? I'm falling over myself with excitment now. These are fantastic stats.

or b) no they're not.



Sharper than what? A spoon?

We certainly looked fantastic during the Salford and London games last year.

It's a real shame that if it was announced our quadruple winning GF hooker Diskin was leaving we wouldnt have people falling over themselves to praise him in this manner depite achieveing far more in his career than Buderus ever has or will.

Why?



Relevance?

Nope. I have the quote here from you.



He's shown very little last season as your stats kindly proved but never mind, he'll prove us all wrong in October wont he.

Buderus taking part in the GF in October wont prove anyone wrong and only a clown would fail to see the point. We didn't need another hooker. Get it now?

You would really compare Diskins achievements to Buderus?

There is some outstanding gnashing and chomping on this thread, all stemming from a very thinly veiled troll post.

Kudos.
