Similar BG --but if Lunt`s being singled out cos of a misdemeanour - cant see why he cant turn him round and get him back on track !
Instead he feels he can rehabilitate someone who`s rebelled elsewhere

Cant readily see the difference --and I know which one Id rather see in the team on ability alone

but all will be revealed

If shaun doesn't want to play for Huddersfield then what do you do? keep him or sign someone who does

who said Lunt has had any misdemeanour's?

I'd get to specsavers if you feel Lunt it better than a trained Moore. Oh and then of course, there's the money question. As an example, would you take someone who's fighting to keep their rugby league career for say £20k and wants to play for the Giants, or would you keep someone who doesn't want to play for the club, has his mind elsewhere, has his goals set elsewhere, picking up say £80k. Free's up £60k to sign some players up on longer deals

That sums it up for me. Like I said before I believe in second chances but Moore's career is littered with incidents. That isn't good. Having said that as Steve May says elsewhere, Danny Brough has matured at the Giants and maybe Scott Moore will.

Still while he's wearing a Giants shirt I'll support him.

lets see what hes like vs Swinton

shaun lunt is better than scott moore.

shaun lunt wants to play and that is the problem he isnt being picked so his off loan to get some time on the field. the rumour has it that nathan and shaun have had a falling out so when he returns from the loan nathan will be gone.
with tommy lee out and brown not wanting to play lunt signs moore up to end of the season for cover.

im not one for rumours but this does add up

I disagree that Lunt is a better player than Moore.

Bingo.

The Giants statement says that it frees some salary which will allow us to announce some longer term deals.

If this means we sign up EDEN then i am a happy bunny.

Still i wish Lunt all the best and he has been a great player for us. Good luck to him.

moore got in the super league dream team when playing for us, get him back to that form and happy days!

its a massive chance for him till the end of the season so he should take it, brown will sort him out, he sorted mason,faalogo,o'donnell and brough out afterall!!!

we havent missed lunt and think he will be on a good wage....frees some space up to sign our talented youngsters longterm...something has to give at the top end of the wages to keep the young ones

When Lunt signed his new long term deal to stop him going to Australia he will have had a hefty pay rise.
I would presume that as Moore is been offered what is in effect a last chance offer then his salary will be a lot less.

Eden will have signed on a deal paying him 'peanuts' as he was unproven at this level. He will have increased his value massively. The Giants need to sign him up long term which will involve offering him a vastly improved contract. As the Giants are running on a full cap then funds would need to be freed.

Moving someone on who is in effect third choice in his position and replacing with a player of at least equal ability on a lot less money would seem like one of the least disruptive ways of been able to afford the services of an exceptinally talented full back and at the same time not damaging the strength of the squad.

If theres a deep belief that the bad boy will be "saved" --then Id say we could on the other hand persuade the other that the grass isnt always greener ! Would be the easier option surely?

As for figures -- you seem to be in the know -- so I wont argue with the maths

Like what I said --dont sprinkle crumbs
Spill the beans ! Give us the facts
From previous experience its the only chance supporters will have to form a measured opinion on the situation

Armed with your facts (and my new glasses) - I may ultimately agree with you !

is this morse code? dot dash dot?

figures are out of mid air

also could a mod tell me why my original post now has more than what I previously wrote?

the stella kid, you are a poster of wise words. I like your way of thinking, i dont know why it says that I need to read the AUP though??????

Man's got a point.

Nor me ! (dash) - thought you`d know it off by heart !(wink)
