| Okay, so we are all in agreememnt that D is the correct answer.
I thought some people were seriously holding Higham up as some kind of wonder (read: good) hooker then. It is painfully obvious that we need a new hooker.
I have said it before but the gap between Monas and Clarke/Higham is frankly embarrassing. I'm sure there are better hookers playing hull this week that are better than them. I'm sure there are better hookers playing newton Storm this weekend than them two. (exaggeration) but we must promote one of the hookers in the under team or as someone has said get a young championship hooker.

| tbh, Higham has been living on his (Saints, as understudy to Cunningham) reputation for a number of years, now.
I've rarely been impressed with him in a Wire jersey.
Clarke
Got lucky, that when we were CRIPPLED with injury in 07, he stood out as a great player (when he was just good), because he was surrounded by youngsters who were learning the game, at the time. On the back of it, Cullen gave him a 4 year contract (insanity imo)
Clarke (is now) an average hooker, but (imo) a more than usefull loose forward, who does have guile (see my earlier posts, re lack of flair in our pack) and backs up play.
Higham, is merely (again, just my opinion) a scoot from dummyhalf merchant .
The pair of them don't even get deserved to be mentioned in the same breath as Monaghan M.
Clarke, thanks for your efforts over the decade, your MoM displays, and well done on your Challenge Cup winners medal. It's time for you to move on, now
Ditto for Higham.
WE NEED A NEW HOOKER (if we plan to continue the current SL trend of playing 2 hookers per game)...end of (again, imo)

I don't use this emoticon much but... agree completely.

| What is the obsession teams have with playing two hookers? Monaghan is perfectly capable of doing a full 80 minutes.

Apparently you're in good company as Nobby Noble also has liquid thoughts regarding the BBC's dark destroyer. He made his thoughts pubic so public on last weeks RL extra.

No he can't. He's awful after about an hour if he isn't interchanged.
