Welcome Connor, most right minded supporters will see that this is a decision forced on Richard by recent happenings and will welcome you.

Not a fan of DR, but think we dont have much choice, as we have a few out and Craven back at the Chemics! Hope Connor proves himself as would be good to have some decent backup even when/if Craven Returns.

Very good young player, can play in the halfs or hooker, the latter being his best position IMO.

Lad called Jake Eccleston in the squad as well as a trialist.

is he that centre that wire released? if so, remember reading somewhere he is rapid

The very fella !

Hudds Shay is very harsh, id recommend Taylors Golden Best or Pale Ale before reacting these random bitters seem to more than bitter by name haha. One player shouldn't cost us our chances against Hunslet.

As for the situation RM is in, I don't think getting someone in for the sake of it is worthwhile, but I don't see this as doing that, we needed cover quick, and hes got it, Scott will have to revert to chief playmaker again and we have a bit of extra cover and zip from acting half as an option with Connor.

This isn't going to be fixed over night, unless we can do a Leigh and sign someone (that old fashioned Sporting idea) and even that may not work short term.

Support goes now to Connor, and continued trust in RM and the BOD's to do their best with situation we have.

DR isn't a lot different from having several players with Biscuit Knees, if you accept they are unlikely to be someone you can build a side around. Craven went well, we should be thankful he played well for us and move on.

Question for the disgruntled.....

What's the difference between Craven's loan recall & DR?

Much as we need reinforcements in the hooker/half back role I still stand by my view that DR is wrong & making a mockery of the game.
I dont need to grow up. My view is consistant & based on what's good for the game. I support a TEAM not a ever changing collection of individuals

Unfortunately, very little but a season long loan should last a season. I'm also against recalls on loans

Plus Fairbanks, there is no difference.
Its just that some of us see through spectacles some see through pint glasses.
Mmmmmmm.

I don't think any of us are actually in favour of D/R and loans, its just that the RFL have, in their infinite wisdom brought both in.
Why would we put ourselves at a disadvantage by standing on the moral high ground.
Recalls, Rugby League and other sports lend players so they can get the game time they need, would a club lend a player if it knew it could not recall him because of injuries?
Richard has done the honourable thing, he has let Taylor go because it was promised, I bet if Craven hadn't been recalled now but in a few weeks Taylor would have his seaside sabbatical cut short.
We should always use the tools that are available to us.

The difference between Cravens recall and DR; Whilst at Fax Craven couldn't play for Widnes at any level, he was in all intents and purposes a Halifax player. Robinson is a Hull KR player who is playing for us this weekend and could very well play for Hull KR the week after, then us the week after, and so on. Makes a big difference in my opinion.

For those people who are against DR or loans just look at the size of our squad, without them, we would barely be able to put 17 players on the pitch.
