Maybe he's being sold to Widnes

Well, if it is true, Leeds really need someone with an experienced head in the back-line.

Looking at what we have, this would be an ideal opportunity for Smith who always looked his best in this position. I can't help wondering how much better Smith would have been if we'd let Webb go to Wire all those years ago instead of breaking the salary structure to keep him (all allegedly of course!). Smith could have been England's first choice FB (before the emergence of Tomkins in that position).

If Smith is not the answer I am less convinced by BJB at FB, who looks shaky in the position and generally is best kept on the wing where he can use his pace and footwork to best effect.

If we are going to learn any lessons from what happened to Lee Smith's career I would prefer to keep Hardaker at centre for now. Changing his position to cover injuries every half season can't do his development any favours. In any case, we will just need another centre again. Given the injuries in the back-row the last thing we want to do is move Ablett or Delaney - or God help us - bring back Senior.

If the Bulls do fold and there is some mileage in moving Hardaker to FB (I still think he should stay in the centres) we might want to consider Keith Lulia. More directly Brett Kearney offers a similar skill set to Webb and could do a job as a replacement FB.

I bet Gotcha could knit the fog sufficiently to describe it as something else.

Now, stop posting or you'll cause this shat to creep up to 5 pages.

Lovely stuff.

Like I said, he may have, IF the rumour is true.

The rumour is that Webb has been suspended by the club, whether or not it is true remains to be seen. Its just speculation at the moment until he walks back on the pitch, or it is confirmed.

"doesn't feel up to training to the standards that we require"

So, Brent Webb hasn't whinged and chelped incessantly to the ref just because he got tackled, hasn't performed his latest coathanger tackle on an opposition player and hasn't thrown his last trademark forward pass for Leeds just yet then?

Sounds like the type of statement Tony Smith was making about Gary Connolly in early 2004.

I wonder if he made a forward pass to Kath?

Classic NRL trained player.



Love it.

*Yawn*

Bwahahahahahaha



0.83 out of 10.

Rather than knitting fog should we not be talking about spinning a webb ??

It's all a ploy to make room for Senior and to return his no.4 shirt.... Hardaker will take the no.1 shirt. ..

I see, so what you're saying is he may have played his last game but in the event he hasn't, then he hasn't.

Insightful stuff. I wish I had your contacts.

Good thread this.

I've been waiting for a thread to replace THAT Talau thread. Might have found it...

I cant see the club saying a player is ill,if he is suspended for a disciplinary matter.If they say he is ill,then I believe them.He will have a sicknote saying he cannot attend training till he is cleared by his doctor

Or a note from his mum.

Maybe he forgot his kit?

Do it in your pants then!

I just did. Now I have to go home and get changed.

Bad cold/flu been unable to train according tonights EP. If it's anything like the bug I've started with 4 weeks ago I can sympathise with him.

Webb is like a Lemon.

I'd also like to add Frosties should stop posting rumours like they are fact or making them really vague to cause speculation when it turns out he could've just got it from twitter or facebook.
