Have it on pretty good authority that Paul mcshane is joining us on loan next year , probably makes sense and is a decent player

Aiton is a good hard working, tough tackling player but his alround game isn't in the same class as Sam obst who's passing and running game was far superior ,Sam also had a kicking game aiton dosent

Obst was a tryer, but too often opted for the headless chicken approach.

Aiton is a class above in my view, but I would agree that his distribution from dh is not always the best; when he plays a more direct running game though, he's very dangerous. As for his defence - he's amongst the best in SL, let alone at WTW.

I think Obst had a different value to us as a player.
An excellent hooker and not a bad stand in scrum half.
Aiton IMO is a better hooker but, I don't think he could cover the SH role.
Obst also worked his socks off for the club for a number of years, whereas Aiton
only has a couple of seasons under his belt.

Lets hope he's got a few more seasons for Trin !

Two qualities that appeal to some supporters more than others I'm afraid.

Cockayne?
