We're in a very difficult spot, so close to the start of the season and with a spot for one year only. I agree with the comment that Arthur has set the side up to start sets with big wingers taking the ball in, and those same wingers being able to smash their way through close to the line. Lumb may have a big future, but he (nor Handley) cannot do that anywhere near as effectively as a big guy.

I know he's burned bridges and neither side would probably even think about it, but the closest like-for-like I can think of would be Macdonald, who has played a on the wing a lot.

Can anyone think of any British players who fit the bill? Or even close?

The only other consideration would be that Frawley's contract runs out this year. But we're getting into very bad territory if we have to definitely lose him next year to get a winger for this one.

He is signing next, for New Zealand Warriors.

Sad if true.
Leeds have stuck with him the last year with his injury issues.

Going to the right team is always important I don't think he would be 

Disappointing news if true. Through the whole
Of 2023 and 2024 he started 6 games and played 4 of the bench due to concussion issues.


Going to the much harder NRL when he has not yet been able to get through a single SL season seems a strange move to me.


I can?t think of an English player being a success at NZ warriors since Dennis Betts and Andy Platt. Even Sam Tomkins failed.


Seems like a bit of a kick in the teeth for the club and is now becoming a bad habit following Walters and Martin.


I reckon he will be back in SL in 2 years.

Feel let down by Gannon, club stuck by him with his long long lay off. Poor from the player imo and he?s going to NRL far too early. Yet more top young talent we can?t keep hold of though
