Silk,

I suspect that the goodwill harnessed with the Leon trade allowed the Nathan Brown trade to get up & done with minimal fuss.

brilliant with either foot

I never ever thought of Leon as our big game player but interesting that his most productive games were against quality sides at that time and in 2 of our 3 finals. One of the few truly silky skilled and dual-sided players to put on the Tigers guernsey in the past 25 years. Sadly we only got him towards the end of his career.
