Suspect the lad wont be on much money & is a star player from the Championship so gives us loads of options now for our back 3, something we didnt have last year hence why garbage like Sherrife played every week.

With all the potential FB's we have now in Royston, Platt, Ah Van and Sykes, i think it looks 100% now that Kearney will be stand off next season. Personally i think he's a FB and should play there but with a good 7 then he may do ok there for us.

Would think now maybe 1 more signing to come depending on Orford situation. If he goes we need to spend the transfer money & his wage money on a top class 7 & if he comes back then i dont think we'll sign anyone else & i'd be pretty happy with whay we've got.

His support play is outstanding, and his angled runs from scrums and breaks will cause alot of teams problems next season.

Yeah I thought he looked good yesterday, on the subject of yesterdays game would it be worth swapping Rob with Michael, he had a great break for the try?

fantastic idea I'm sure fax will go for it. NOT

Thats the best part of his game, always on the shoulder of a player making a half break, and chiming into the line. If you get Orford back or someone similar, Shad running off him will be hard to stop.

If We don't sign a Stand off then I'm pretty sure Shad will end up forcing his way into being our first choice Full-back.

His ability to read the game, his angled runs and his backing up are all exceptional.
