Update on Leon, got a text today saying that the specialist had assessed him and put him as 2/3 weeks away.

We could see him against Catalans if his recovery progresses well in the next couple of weeks. However, the Catalans game may come a week to early, if he doesn't make it then he should be good to go against Hull KR the week after.

And lets not forget how long it will take before we see the best of him. Its 12 Months now since hes played, not taking into account his three minute stint at Catalans

There's no point rushing him back, as long as he has a good few games to prepare for the play-offs I don't really care. You don't win Grand Finals in July.

I don't accept that theory; we were told at the time that they had waited until he was fully fit - there was no hint of him being brought back too early.
It is an easy excuse to be able to say in retrospect that he was brought back too early - no-one thought that then.

The original main injury was a neck issue and although he pulled his groin pre-season this stretches belief a little that that could then develop into the current "muscle torn away from the pelvic bone" injury after 3 mins because he came back a week early.

A more realistic view was that he was simply unlucky or generally not match fit/ battle hardened enough to play.

"Leon is 99% to play on Saturday after doing his second full training session today....." said Purtill on 1st March - hardly a sign they brought him back early.

It's not a theory, I have a friend who is on the medical team. He told me he was brought back too early
