Let's go back to the past re trophies and medals. 1
Maybe Rapira saw that this season is leeds last opportunity to win anything. Maybe he saw how poor you were for 3 games without Sinfield and realised it will only get worse when JP and Kylie leave. 2
Maybe laughed as much as everybody else when Rob Burrow got another 2 years. 3
I'm surprised leeds wanted him any way, he doesn't have many medals, therefore must be rubbish. 4
With regards to Mullally having ambition, that may be the case. Or the fact that he lives in headingley might have something to do with it.
You lot keep mentioning his potential and you might convince yourselves that he's a good signing! 5

1 Go back to the past? OK remind us, in the super league era how many CC's, hub caps and SL grand finals have Hudds won?
2 Time will tell, but the transition looks to be going well from here.
3 I don't think there were many laughing and not as many as when Hudds gave Crabtree another go,
4 A lack of medals is no bar to consideration at HQ, hell its what attracts some of our best candidates. A questionable injury record however can put off the more risk averse
5 Your jilted lover view of Mullally, doesn't seem to be shared by the majority on your own board.
Time to let it go Fartown, if you're right and Rapira is the answer, we'll have missed out on a potential signing but there will be others. You could double, treble or even quadruple your trophy count, in a single season. AND you will still be nowhere near the Leeds trophy count. So on balance I reckon I'll continue to back GH's judgement ref who we sign HTH
