My parents are from Leigh. I did wonder why my cousin looks just like me.

Give over! When would Blythe score 17 tries in a season?

| We can't always have the best players in every position.
We have most of them, let's mix it with our local lads who can gain expercience and development from them.
I cannot fathom why some people slag off players.
The poor lad hasn't even put a put a Wire shirt on for some time. Give him a chance to earn your breath.

Is it official that he has joined Swinton? I know earlier on this season he was trying to leave Wigan and there was interest from Warrington. Wigan subsequently signed Ganson on a full time basis.
I know out of those two who I would rather have!

Inexplicable.

He must be frustrated with the lack of opportunities this season and that is why he wants to move on. Ganson is currently above him in the pecking order but I don't know how much that is to do with him leaving.

He was voted in the top three players on the recent U18's tour to Australia, Jack Wells was the top gun.

It's just funny. One of the clubs has produced one of the best young half backs in the world, the other has Declan Patton.

I wouldn't quite go that far, but Williams is a talent and I wish he was a Wire, without question.

IMO Zak will join either Wolves or Catalans as his preferred choice of clubs, Although his prospective new club will have to meet Gawwy's valuation first though
If no club pays the desired transfer fee then I believe that he will go out on loan for a season

I personally can't see Watkins leaving the Rhinos.But I suppose everyone has a price that is too hard to resist

£400K to buy out the remaining 2017/18/19 of his contract.

| The only problem is we are not talking Castleford here, Leeds are the richest club in SL.
They turn over the biggest profits by a big margin.
We are far behind in second. £400k doesn't mean much to them if they don't have another centre.
They don't need to sell unless he wants a move.
So let's forget Kallam, he's not coming here sometime soon.

I don't for one minute expect Watkins to sign. However on the off chance that Watkins was desperate for the move, Leeds would be daft to not cash in on him. Especially when they are going to have some huge outgoings over the next few years with the redevelopment of the North & South stands.
So there are reasons, even for the most profitable club in SL, to sell one of their best assets. But as I say, I can't see it happening, I don't get the impression that Watkins is that desperate to get out of Leeds.

According to Bradford fans, Blythe has had a poor season in the Championship. I've only seen him three times, but would agree with their assessment, on the basis of those three games.

| In order to run the reserves we need a core of players that are available each week (Daniel Murray, Sean Kenny, David Thompson, Jacque Peet etc in '16). These are then supplemented with a few U19's, 1st team players returning from injury or who do not have a game, and one or two from Rochdale. Matty will be 29 next year and I would expect him to play regularly in the reserves and only get the occasional game in the first team as and when we get an injury.

Matty Blythe will be 28 next season, I cannot believe he is a replacement for Atkins, not a super league quality player... if we have a starting centre partnership of Blythe and Evans there will be a mass exodus of wingers from our club, they don't have a rugby brain between them.

Williams best young half back in the world? He has a very limited passing and kicking game... he is a good ball runner, that's about it.
