Houghton would be great for you and would improve playing in your side and your coaching.

Can't see why we would sell him mid season.

Unless it's a silly offer (and possible player), then I really hope this doesn't happen.

If he plays in the cup on Sunday, then I doubt this will happen, so we might have more of an idea then.

I'm not sure Houghton is much of an improvement over the current Aiton and I'm not sure how he'd improve our coaching.

He's a good hooker, as mentioned above I think he'd go really well in the NRL but I don't think he's what we need unless Aiton is leaving.

If Aiton's staying then I reckon someone like Milner or Pelissier would be good.

This is guff. Don't feed the rumour.

Burrow isn't leaving. Aiton will only leave if something with the Cronulla case has kicked off. Even then ward should be given his chance.

Back to the rumour about us signing Sam Burgess thanks, much more likely to happen.

This

The only reason Leeds would possibly put an offer in for Houghton is if the ozzy drug blokes have genuinely got a case with Aiton.

if aiton is to be done there would have to have a hearing which would be in Australia there are other players in the same situation and the aussie press would be reporting about it till i hear it in the news its just bolloxs

I agree, but why then would we put an offer in for a hooker that isn't as good as we've got now, Esp when we have good cover in that position.

The answer is we haven't.

but we don't. burrow is OOC and as peter smith said on twitter, "he hasn't signed for cas. yet". two people in RL media have told me he will be going. look at his game time. he doesn't feature much when everyones fit. ward is untried and nowhere near ready..
why do people assume aiton is going??? you do need two quality hookers

two people mentioned it to me last night. I work with an ex SL player who knows houghtons family well. we are def interested in the player

If this happens I'd be underwhelmed with the signing of Houghton

time will tell

You don't need two hookers in your 17, if you've got the right one starting.

Certainly don't need two highly paid ones playing 40 minutes each, and absolutely don't need to be throwing a transfer fee at a pretty ordinary one.

Aiton has been superb tonight, and indeed all season so far.Can't understand any talk of a new hooker
