| OBST has been released at Hull.
He was seen at Cougar Park last season with Korky. There's a rumour the Dulls are in for him, but if that didn't come off maybe?
There's been talk on the Hull forum that a Championship club could be in for him on a SL release clause deal.
Another one of JD's pals from Wakefield?
Wouldn't that be a further statement of intent.
Back to the real world!

The Dulls have recruited Sammut and Gale so will Obst will be behind them in the pecking order. If he's happy with that arrangement he'd be better at Leeds acting as replacement for Sinfield or McGuire.

| It would be interesting were he to do so, but how many half-backs/hookers do we need and at what cost?
That said, after his father was a brilliant stand-off/full back for Keighley ('B.C' - Before Cougars), it would be good to see him continue the 'family tradition' and see his father grace the 'hallowed turf' again!

Good point. Maybe if he were to end up at Cougars this would mean JD would hang his boots up. Or, on the other hand, would it mean the Coleman move wouldn't happen. To be honest, at this point it's nothing more than speculation. He's a quality player and would love to see him at Cougar Park providing he wants to play and importantly we can afford him.

JD hangs up his boots.
Obst and Coleman play half backs.
Danny Jones plays full back just like he did for Wales.
Problem sorted.

| I can't see why people want JD to hang up his boots.
He played three quarters of last season out of position.
He still managed to be our second highest try scorer.
He needs to play 13, maybe start from the bench so he can see the game from the side also.

He has got bad knees. Thats reason enough.

I don't think anyone said he SHOULD hang his boots. People are just offering opinion about how and where Obst would fit in if we were lucky enough to sign. JD by his own admission has said he hadn't made up his mind. I would like him to play again next season because he offers more than he gets credit for, however, I'm mindful of the cap and his salary counting towards it whilst he is player coach. If he were to retire maybe this would free up money to sign Obst?
Like GW says, he is feeling it and should do what's right for his body, himself and his family. If that means him donning a Cougar shirt next year happy days. If not, I'm sure he'll do a cracking job from the sidelines.
As for Jones at Full back. When he lined up against England I had my reservations, but apart from a couple of moments against NZ (not seen the Aussie game yet so can't comment) he played well. Think he'd be more effective at the halves, but he's shown his versatility.

It's all gone a bit quiet on the SL signing front. We can speculate about many players but until they are signed it's pie in the sky. Fingers crossed.
