It might well be. Another chap on there has said he has heard it is a one year loan deal to Huddersfield.
If this is the case, then I think it is a fantastic move. |

| Quote: Panda Antics "I'd be disappointed if we let Davies go, but something probably has to give somewhere in the forwards, or else players aren't going to progress because they're not going to get the game time.
Looking at our forwards for next year
Well it could well be that Ben Davies will join Huddersfield Giants on a one year loan deal. That would be an excellent move for both Ben and the club. A year at one of the better Super League clubs under a reputable coach in Nathan Brown will do him wonders in accelerating his development as a player.
That would leave us with five prop spots for four places in - Stuart Fielden, Andy Coley, Jeff Lima, Paul Prescott & Eamon O'carroll - with Ben out on a one year loan deal.
As it stands, it looks like we have 6 second row forwards battling it out for only 3 spots in Ryan Hoffman, Joel Tomkins, Lee Mossop, Harrison Hansen, Liam Farrell & Chris Tuson. I think it would be excellent if we have these six players toughing it out for a second row spot. Opportunities during a season will occur for all of these players. Injuries is unfortunately part and parcel of the game. However not only that, you can bet that the form of certain players will fluctuate during the season & so the competition for places keeps everyone on their toes in that regards. Even should we stay injury free/everyone in form it gives us the chance to rest a few players.
And if all that wasn't enough, we hopefully have Gareth Hock to add back into the side. For the first time in years I think we have a forward pack that is absolutely sorted.
The one area where we could fall short is at hooker. I rate Mike McIlorum, but whenever he seems to find some form he gets an injury. Injuries have really hampered his career so far. Then you have Tommy Leuluai who I believe could do a good job at hooker coming on from the bench, but he is relatively inexperienced in this position. It is the strength in depth that concerns me too. Either one of these players picks up an injury/suspension - who covers?

| Don't want to see Davies leave. 
Hopefully he won't be leaving, and he'll be on a season long loan to Huddersfield. Which actually would be the best for all involved. |

Watched this lad in your under 20's on Saturday and I was blown away, he was magnificent (along with a few more senior players) in that game, but he'll need to play SL on a regular basis and looking at your squad I don't see too many opportunities next season for him so it could work out well for both the player and the club for him to spend a season out on loan.

Maybe he'll become one of Brown's enforcers? |

So basically all three are 1 of either crap, average or brilliant.

 I suppose you will get that on a forum which includes opposition fans.
One intersting point is that most reckon Finch plays best with a playmaking scrum half next to him. This could be an issue if we put Tommy to 9 and deacon retires. Would Finch and Sam make a highly effective half back pairing? I have my doubts. And, as some have already stated, i think a new quality 9, with Tommy and sam as halves, is needed to complete our squad for next year.

I fell that we would have a complete team if we could just sign a good hooker, i prefer tommy at 7 as i feel he is improving and become much more mature, he also doesnt offer the cunningness of a 9, or the trickery.
Now i have heard from numerous people that michael ennis could be on his way to wigan, this could be an immense signing if true! He is awesome and would add countless attributes to our team, he i one of my favourite hookers. Although i doubt he would come due to his age, his SOO place and potential rep opportunities.
But here is to hoping that the signing could be made!
