| Ridiculous. We sign (allegedly) Londons best player, potentially the best hooker we've had at bv for years, and then palm him out to another club without hardly playing him. Now I can't knock Aiton, he is a very good player.
But this kind of thing is so frustrating for the average fan.

True Leeds wanted him, be he came to us for 1st team rugby as at the time Buderas was still staying.
Dissapointed he has not been given a chance but if he comes back after playing a few matches it may be beneficial.
Also got told by a HKR fan that Webster was part of the reason he left HKR. Maybe that has something to do with it and his lack of game time?

| Great signing at the time, but a pointless signing after all the other signings. I feel genuinely sorry for the bloke that he's being loaned out to a Championship club. Hope all goes well for him at Fev, and that maybe another SL club steps in for him. Reads to me like he's been messed about, which would be a poor reflection on those who signed him.

| This is the world of sport I am afraid.
RA is looking at the balance of the squad there are fans on here picking the team each week, well he's not getting a game because we have Aiton, we have Wildie who also plays that position. I wouldnt drop Aiton and hes not injured so there is no place for Ellis, hes cover live with it, he may have been Londons best player but it doesnt mean to say he's ours. Aiton has proved to be an astute signing and given the right blend around him and a bigger and better front row I am sure we have more to come. in the meantime Ellis loaned out is the right thing he gets game time and is available should we get any injuries. There is no loyalty in sport the best team should play and I dont see him in front of Aiton good move for me.

Agar plainly is loyal otherwise Mellars wouldn't keep getting a place in the team.
As for Ellis, for all we know he could be a better option than Aiton, I suspect he's a better option than Wood, but he's not been given chance.

| Aiton has been good but we play with two hookers and from what Ellis showed at Barrow and then London Ellis is a better hooker than both Wildie and Wood, who i'd like to see given a chance at halfback. Still it's Agars choice and he'll live and die by his decisions.

Considering half back was Wilde and Woods first positions in the game you have room to move them and put Ellis at hooker. At least with the team performing so poorly, and John/Smith have hardly set the world on fire it was another option to try for a few games.

OK he will get game time but I would have thought, with no disrespect to Featherstone, that he is better than that. The bloke has not been given a reasonable chance to impress. No doubt he thinks he is better away and I don't blame him for that.'"
Agar has said before that he likes the loan system and doesn't like the U20s because it is a better way for the fringe players to get match ready.
He openly said he didn't feel players could step easily from U20 to first team easily.
Assuming Agar still wants him (which of course we don't know) Fev will be a good place to build fitness and confidence.
Saying that I'd have liked to see him play.

I agree club is going in the right direction Glover has worked wonders only thing keeping us behind is MR AGAR. Use the 1873 money to pay the coach off for the next 2 month. 3 years dear me. Poor Glover has been brainwashed !
