From what I have seen watching occasional Batley games he looks big and strong in the majority but has a tendency to go missing at times and has been accoused of not running his weight in the past. Hopefully full time training would change that.

I know lads who play eastmoor that would give 100% dont mean they are right for us.not knocking finn he is what he is his kicking game is not has goud as aome people seem to think hes defo too slow and he wont win us a game like some other 7s.cas got rid for a reason and the problem is we no one to rest him with and he has looked tired over last few weeks

He won't win us a game?
His goal kicking has won us a fair few games this season.

Still 2 defeats in a row and the dummy rattlers are out in force

I was a big fan of Smith when he was on song - his passing at the line was, sometimes, unplayable; but it was far too rare an occurrence.

I did make much of his inability to kick and I was right about that - he was also a shirker in defence and seemed to recoil from contact; Finn beats him in both those areas, and is far more consistent - slower and less skillful at the line without question, but way more rounded as a player.

He isn't Jonathon Thurston, but he's a solid, dependable HB who has done a great job for us; I'm sure we'll replace him, but I'm happy that he's earned his corn.

Wow. "Won't win us a game"
What game are you watching?

His goal kicking alone has been the key difference in quite a few games in the winning run and I remember some of his passes to the likes of Ashurst that completely split the defence being as good as anyone else in Super League.
He isn't perfect. But as Vasty says, he is perfect for us right now.

He'd be my captain to be honest

True I'd much rather a genius giving us 20%

Finn is not a match winner that's probably true. What you don't seem to grasp is that he fulfils a valuable roll within the team that allows others (mainly Miller) to do so. It works for us because we can't afford a superstar in every position, in fact we can barely afford a superstar in any position.

You will never see Finn perform like Albert Kelly did, he played an absolute blinder that night. But he doesn't play like that all the time, I doubt he'll get that much space in a SL game again this season. Injury or not he made no impact in last years CCup when HKR really needed it.

Now if you want Kelly over Finn I'll be more than happy to see that happen. All you need to do is pop down to BV and hand over 150k of your own money and while you are there explain to his new team mates why he's worth between two to four times more than what they are. Then take out an insurance policy so we are covered for his inevitable injury crises. Finally put a little bit aside so we can afford to pay that hundred per from Eastmoor to cover for him because he'll be all we can afford
