| I'm worried he's been brought in as our other centre. Or one of three: him, Blythe & Purtell. We are weak in centres for next year

| to be fair to luke he is a better winger than a centre as he proved last night.he's always looked weak at centre especially defensively.

Pretty sure Cummins made reference to signing a replacement for Lulia in an article in the T&A last week so hopefully we have somebody lined up. I thought George was quiet in attack and looked a little suspect in defence playing at centre. He has been signed to add competition to our backline and I expect with a full squad his most likely position would be at wing for us. In any case he hasn't played a great deal of SL recently so it's a little unfair to make too much judgement on last nights performance.

| It's s long time since he's played so he was bound to be a bit rusty- but he didn't do himself any favours last night. One of your lads made a break and he didn't even make the effort to chase him -I think effort or lack of is the reason he was dropped in the first place.
With the ball in space he is good but didn't get the opportunity to show that last night. In any event ferguson is a much better buy!

| agree jools, bit sad to see fergy leaving he will be a good player for Bradford, and has been one of our standout players for most parts of the season.

| I see George as a winger. He's not good enough in defence to be in the centre.

| If the Giants don't think he's good enough to have in reserve to Murphy & McGillvary, he's clearly lacking something.
Last night did him no favours. Would have expected him to expend every last bit of effort & leave the field exhausted in trying to impress his new club's fans.

| He looked like he didn't want to be there TBH.
Obviously his confidence has been shot which happens. Look at Scruton last year when his head had gone down.
For me he's not really a centre, think he is a decent winger though. I would rather have Blythe, Purtell and Foster at centre. Hopefully we'll have someone liked up though.
But I'd like George on Wing. Pace and can score tries (as proved last season)

| I can see George being used pretty similar to how he is or was at the Giants, as a decent player to slot in as back up. He will be hard pushed to displace Foster or Kear just as he was hard pushed to get into the Giants line up but when the inevitable injuries start up next year instead of it being the same as this year and telling the lads you have to just play anyway we can hopefully give them time to recover and have someone decent to come in and do a job too

Does he? When, exactly? I mean, he used to, I know, cos I've seen it, but at the moment?
His defence was crap yesterday, but I was actually quite shocked at his obvious sluggishness. Given we are signing him I paid particular attention to his game, and have to say he was gash.
The worst effort was the Sammut interception. George was the nearest man, when he turned to chase, Sammut had about 5 yards start, but George first of all never made any impression on Sammut at all, and then, when he saw he was losing ground, he veered off to his left, as if he was covering someone else. He looked worryingly slow there. Sammut is no slouch but he shouldn't be able to beat our winger for pace by a mile.
Oh well. We have the close season to work on him and replace some pork with some fast twitch muscle, I suppose. But at the moment he ain't lookin like no speedy winger to me.
I'd also shave his head, as that afro must be acting like a Space Shuttle wind brake, and he doesn't have the luxury of not needing the streamlining at this point.

| My only issue with Luke George at the moment I was imagining him in a Bulls shirt and I began to remember Rikki Sheriffe. I think he needs a new hairstyle before pulling on a Bulls shirt!!
