we have a cracking 9 in the 19s

Godinet did play hooker on several occasions as I recall. Would love to have him back for his attacking play, but particularly for his speed at the play the ball, and keen marking of the opposing acting halfback.

You can all speculate but I would think they will switch Sio to number 9 because it saves signing a replacements for Moore.

Well it's a good job you're not the coach because it was as clear as the nose on your face, that when switched there, he proved he's not a 9.

No he certainly isnt a 9. He has been though, I thinl a very good 13 for us.

If all this is true regarding Moore, looking at SL players that are off contract, none are hookers.

With this, I do feel that if a quota spot becomes available then this should be used for a hooker.

Other than this the only other alternatives I can see is Moules getting regualar game time which Im not sure yet if his body is yet ready for week in week out super league, Liam Finn, with his lack of pace could that slow down distribution or finally do we use JKs knowledge of the championship and bring one in from there. The only problem I have is we may not get the SL quality.

Has Moore gone then, or is this all speculation and pub talk?

Maybe this is where Grix's utility value comes in?

What, at 9 ?

Why not?
His organisation skills are good and he has a decent pair of hands.
I have mentioned a couple of names but if these fail, you look to who maybe able to rotate with Finn.

A specialist hooker is vital, the halves thrive on quality ball. You can't go half measures on this. When Scott has played in 2016, we are a much better team but we need players on the pitch not in the stands especially if we have less squad members in 2017. I hope this is sorted out soon to get everyone working together from game one in 2017.

I think you are right here No1.

It is a specialist position like half back in my eyes.

If Moore is definately going we need a proper hooker and a good one
