I agree
On debut against Leeds in a Boxing Bay game, Hirst was excellent. Really difficult to get to ground, always looking to offload and with plenty of energy.
Whether he is playing with fear, not wanting to make a mistake or, whether he's been told to keep the ball tight, his game has definitely changed.
Perhaps it's just the struggle of playing at the higher level ?

Generally, I dont think we offload anywhere near enough, which makes us very easy to defend against and maybe it's time that we played with a bit more risk ?

Totally agree Wrencat but I don't think we have the skill level to do that we have problems catching a pass let alone an offload

Agree with your post, i would assume that we would keep Hirst as he is probably good value for money. If we sign Westerman as has been reported and keep Arona (really hope we do!), i think we will see one of Arona or King play more prop than loose forward.

Looking at the reported OOC players, the following IMO would be good options to sign although im not sure the list is up to date.

Kyle Amor
Sitaleki Akauola
Lama Tasi

It will also be interesting to see what the Rhinos do in the off season, they may be looking to offload one or two?

Sitaleki Akauola seems to have hit some real form at Warrington, running really hard for them. I'd be surprised if they don't sign him up.

As would i but he was on the OOC list, just not sure if he signed a new deal or not.
