Quote: Dave K. "It's a real concern, the city of Hull for example havent produced a SL standard halfback since Cooke and Horne.'"
As a sport and perhaps it's the national coaches call, perhaps we should be looking at whether some of the full backs can make it as a top class HB.
Tomkins is a good example of this.
I'm sure that if he'd played more in the halves, he would be better than what we currently have.
Reads the game well, decent pass, unbelievable step and a decent kicking game.
Surely, RL in England needs to have a really good look at itself ?
It's far from straightforward as clubs will always look after themselves first but, if we keep on going down the import route for these key positions, the national side will NEVER beat the Aussies.
