Would take Mullalley but might find a place at another Super League club if he is anywhere near as good as when he was on loan with us.

He (Joseph) might well be looking for a move since he seems to be well down the pecking order at Salford. Although I'm unsure of what his contractual situation is (void if Salford go down obvs). He'd certainly make a useful and hard working addition to our 2017 squad and probably wouldnt cost the earth. It wasnt a million years ago Sky took to calling him "The Wrecking Ball" and I certainly think he could do a job against Championship opposition and then stand up well in a middle 8's scenario. If he's available I say sign him up.

He is potentially the worst hooker I've ever seen.

Joseph is pretty no nonsense really. He's never going to be the best prop in the world. He's lacking a bit of skill. But you'll never fault his effort, which makes up for some of his shortcomings.

I think he'd do a decent job in the championship, and after the amount of times some of our players have looked like they're lacking effort this season, maybe someone with Phil's kind of attitude might be quite welcome.

I've always viewed Crabtree and Karl Pryce as being in the same category. Monsters with no heart. If it isn't heart, then I struggle to think of another reason why a huge bloke can go into contact and make so little impact.

Haha I wasnt claiming he would play at 9 just that he has and he has at Salford this season. Bear in mind he was a hooker when he came through at Huddersfield. Agree he isnt good enough to play there

Regarding Crabtree, I think you're right. He always looked the part, but as soon as he made contact, he just went down like a sack of spuds. No leg drive or aggression, just seemed to go through the motions every time he carried the ball.
