Quote ="jordanp"While I accept that we can't sign everyone and hindsight is a wonderful thing, but you can't moan or use the excuse that there arnt any decent halfbacks around, I'm sure Gale was mentioned on here a few years ago and people said if he was that good Leeds wouldn't have let him go, Quins took a chance and are in a better situation then we are in terms of a decent long term halfback, same goes with Gareth Moore I'm sure someone will take a chance on him soon, while we are probabally still searching, who can honestly say if that happened the club wouldn't deserve a "bashing", could say the same with Briggs.'"
Nail on the head, Briggs, Gale and Moore all played in the same Rhinos reserves together for a period although Moore is a year younger. You may remember the Academy Grand Final at Hull when Leeds won by 0-1 at the KC. Gale kicked the winning drop goal that day. Out of the three Leeds kept Moore and the other two headed to Donny. Gale has improved immensly since he was at Leeds with having Super League experience and full time training, although he does not / did not have the skills that Moore pocceses he has improved no end. Briggs has also raised his game and will also / has also appeared to have made the step up. The three of these probably have more to their overall game than Burrow, who aside from his speed does not poccess these players all round skills. Leeds as a club do not have anyone below Burrow who is anywhere near these players in quality and if Burrow gets injured they will be in real trouble.
