I would be happy with both of these to provide some aggression on the blue line.
Are they aggressive D Men? Just asking as Personally I’ve not heard of or seen either play before.

Steve Munn style 6’4 225lbs or Gord Baldwin style 6’4 225lbs D man as sadly they are two vastly different types of D man
Or even worse, a Ronnberg style 6 foot 4!!

Slightly disappointed that Cole back at Leeds with no two way contract with Steelers. Well yet anyway. Even if does happen, will favour Leeds by the sound of it. With this news, the increased squad size, surely that means Jonno will be staying and will we also need to find another Brit?

I’m disappointed for Cole as he could probably do a job in the EIHL, I think he did OK at MKL when he was loaned down there.
He does seem to be enjoying himself at Leeds so whether he is hoping he can do a Whistle or doesn’t want to go further afield I don’t know.

Seems a bit high level for us, can imagine there’ll be sides in Europe will more pull that us after his signature.

Goes without saying he’d be an outstanding ,experienced addition.

He’s also taller than 5’8 and weighs more than 3 large bags of compost and of North American origin so just doesn’t seem to be Fox’s type

Contact:

He looks to be a perfect pick up and the type of Vallerand replacement we need at 33 maybe he is getting towards his final years so could be looking towards our league.. The trouble is he doesnt fit the player profile that Fox normally has contacts to find, so I would be pleasantly surprised if he is on our radar... :pray:
