As someone said earlier let's see how consistent he is. When he's firing on all cylinders you wonder why he's not getting a sniff from a top flight club. But then the lingering doubt starts to kick in over time as performances slide. There's a reason he is grubbing around down in the lower leagues.

I seriously hope that we have a clause that he can’t play against us.

But its us after all, so watch him tear us to shreds too.

Very good debut, but we all know what he is capable of so it's hardly a surprise for him to be man of the match today. Lack of consistency is what has kept him at this level for so long though. As fans I guess we appreciate some flashes of individual brilliance but I guess the coaches look for more than just that.

No point looking back though. Kear believes we are better off without him and for me he's doing a pretty decent coaching job even if his style and methods aren't to everyone's taste.

Dane has left now. Time to move on and forget about him.

He played fantastic for Featherstone today

Thought he was only on loan?

For the season and then his contract expires. Kear has already confirmed that they weren't planning to offer an extension to that deal.

Wasn't it obvious this would happen?

I remember his first debut with us, I think it was against Whitehaven. He ripped them to shreds and we were something like 52-0 up at half time!

The trouble is that he didn't do that in the big games, the one's that mattered. Remember that fateful game against Featherstone (ironically) when they smashed us 20-0 in that 'must win' game. Totally anonymous! The same will probably happen with Featherstone.

Anyway, water under the bridge now..

LE have a snippet from Kear saying we’re trying to agree a loan half back but the parent club are asking too much in terms of wages, unless they drastically reduce then it won’t happen. Any guesses?

Any news on Darren anderton

He's injured again?

This halfback also plays full back which could come in handy
