Quote: Grimmy "Pleased with this, was Hoffman the last big back rower we had? Apart from Sutton playing there a few times.'"


Hoffman was good and had some size, I thought Suttons best form had been in the period we used him as a back row. He has been good as a prop this year. To be fair to Joel pre RU he was a top back row and had plenty of size as well as pace.

Last year the lack of size in the back row was really evident against the likes of Hull and Cas. Up until the last month we have played pretty well, but we do look too small in the back row. Greenwood if he plays like he did last year for the Gold Coast is a good signing. He is big and athletic.

Would I take Greenwood over Bateman? as a second row yes but for his versatility and all round game I would like to keep Bateman. If we could and have a big second row signing happy days.

Props should be the ones making the hard yards. Running straight and hard and realising when it’s right to get a quick PTB or when to keep going. After each drive a prop should be blowing out his .

The hitting lines and fancy stuff goes down to the back row.

3/4 barnstorming props is what we need IMHO. Relentless in their approach and ground made. Wane has coached that out of our props; we’re far too soft and don’t even look like we’re trying to make yards. Halfbacks can’t play off the back of that.

Really? If you had a choice of Bateman or Greenwood for a second row spot you’d take Greenwood? You must have seen something I haven’t mate, Bateman every time for me regardless of his versatility. I’m hoping for big things from Greenwood though.

Please with the signing. But it does emphasis the difference in standard between the NRL and SL massively. Greenwood will be a first team player in one of, if not the biggest SL club, while over in Australia in was a bench warmer for a feeder club.

We could probably sign a feeder club 7 and he'd be a stand out in SL.

Greenwood looked very good last year and I thought he had a chance of the world cup squad, im suprised he has not featured this year.

The new coach seemed to want him out even before a ball was kicked this season so it’s probably not too much of a slight on his talent.

We need more signings of a similar quality to Hardaker and Greenwood for 2019 but on playing ability alone you can’t bag the start to our recruitment so far.

He is a good player, don't get me wrong, but he's far more effective on the left than he is on the right. When he was shifted to the right to accommodate Wilkin he was completely ordinary, but on the left he ran good lines and was one of our better performers. With Farrell playing long minutes on the left, it may see Greenwood not reach the levels that some of you hope he can reach.

Faz would most likely be shifted to the bench based on his last few years tbh.

Assuming Joe gets some form.

Valuable competition for places

Can Greenwood play this year? I thought we were at full cap. How are we fitting him in?

I’m not sure exactly how it works but the RFL would have to sanction the move so I’m sure it’s above board.

Maybe GCT are paying some or all of his wages until the end of the season.

It’s a live salary cap and his wage doesn’t count as he’s off our books, unless we are still contributing.

I believe that it's the full amount paid to the player that would count.

Therefore, as he has left now, we should be able to pay Greenwood the same amount as Joel, for the rest of the season, with no effect on the cap (provided that RFL sign off on it).
