Who is your source?! HP are good

Treadstone

oi oi oi

What do Rhinos fans in general think is going to happen. Does it look like he's off or staying? Am I right in thinking that Leeds won't have enough of their cap lest to bump up his salary considerably (after some of his amazing performances) but would be a loss to Leeds and RL if he went to Union.

We normally have some space left in case 'the right player' comes long mid season, and as we have no Eastwood we should have a pretty big bit of space to play with this year

No, we started the season 1 short on the salary cap and with Eastwood not coming we'll be in great shape salary cap wise. I'm sure we could even find space for Sam once he sees sense and follows his brother over here.

But will they want to keep that spare in case the Eastwood deal rematerialises into a perfect deal, or if another world class player becomes available?

If that happens you'll find me cryingand whining on the RAB board. Until then

Not many world class players become available mid season, and if they do it would normally for a bad reason. I'm not sure what's going to happen with Eastwood. What if he likes it at the Bulldogs?

Then you've lost a chance with a great player. But I'm sure when Sam comes





you'll be able to use that extra bit of salary cap.

What about Tupou

Nevermind we can always raid Huddersfield or Quins

There isn't enough space on the internet to fit the right amount

's to that

I have to agree with you there.

I was told today that Saints have been sniffing round Smith for 6 months now. Now that would be an interesting move. It would be a shame if he goes to Union as rumoured, he's a good player despite how much I despise his cocky attitude.

A lot less cocky than he used to be TBH.

He’s maturing into a fantastic player – if he doesn’t spend the rest of his career collecting caps I’ll be surprised (unless he defects to the Dark Side that is).

I struggle to see him as a top centre though. He looks an out-and-out fullback.

If we can't accommodate him under the cap I'd much rather he went to you (or any other league club) than be lost to the game.

I can't see him going to another League team. As an England international he'll be offered a fair upgrade to what he is on now. That should satisfy him. He also has a good base to win honours and caps from, which wouldn't necessarily happen elsewhere apart from Saints.

The only thing that could urge him to Leeds is that he feels the club weren't that loyal to him if the stories of him being offered to Wigan last year are true. He may actually want out.

Can you imagine the gnashing of teeth if that happened.

He'd be 1 of the best player's around over-night!!

That's my fear also.

He'd be automatically given the MOS if that happened!

Be interesting if he did go to saints. Would he play centre, wing or fullback, and oust wellens
