I think this is a really smart signing by the club. Atm with the moore situation, we don't know for certain but I would go Sio starting hooker, wood interchange 9 and Sio move to 13 to give Arona a rest as Sio seems to be effective for the full 80. Provides cover in the halfs aswell as Finn. Not a player that sets the world alight but was definitely a lively out of dummy in his last stint with us and seems to have matured abit whilst at huddersfield. Like some say a bit lightweight in defense and maybe targeted down the middle when he comes on.

Sio should only be used at hooker in emergencies, his distribution is just not good enough or fast enough. It's looking like Wood is going to be Moores replacement so Wood starting at 9.
It's a shame Moore is an idiot, we would have had a decent squad. If we don't sign anyone else I feel we will be a bit light in the most pivotal position on the field.

A hooker by trade, played there at international level should only be used in emergencies? We are a club on a limited budget and wood wont play the full 80 at 9, id rather have Sio there than Finn any day of the week but that's just my opinion. Although not the best, I never thought his distribution was poor as your making it out although I did think he lacked a running game out of DH. Great tackler though. Who knows our starting 9 might be yet to come?

Got to agree with MashPotatoes here, Sio proved towards the back end of the season that his days as a hooker are numbered.
Slow distribution and no variety.
A lot better as a tackling 13.

Fair play ! Maybe something I haven't picked up on, I do think he came life at loose last season, but thought with limited options there he may end up there.

Agree. Sio's distribution although not as good as Moores, isn't as bad as some say and he can do a job there. Moore's brain fart as left us really in a hole in that position. So if it's choice of a Sio/Wood hooking combo or a Finn/Wood, I'd got with the former just give us some balance in defense but we'll see. Be also interesting to see how Brad Moules has developed in the off season. We've seen with Johnstone and Jowittt how quickly things change at that age.

Be interesting whether Sio plays hooker or goes back to lock, or the team thinks he can do a job for us at hooker and they play Arona at Lock.

I think if Moore does stay (highly unlikely), one or two props aside its an alright squad considering budget limitations and the fact the club have bagged Fifita for another year on top of bringing in Sam Williams. I do think though Wood coming back for a third spell just shows the lack of options there are out there, and that goes for most positions too.

Hopefully, Moore does end up staying, nothing official from the club anyone know if hes been training?

Haven't a clue. But keeping the old fingers crossed that the initial reports were wrong/exaggerated, if they are I just can't see it.

Not yet but most come back tomorrow

Spot on, my thinking exactly but at 27 still has time to improve.

Signings like Kyle could make or break CC's reputation.

Absolute terrible signing we will be getting Richard Owen back next. Wood/Grix let's keep signing players that are totally undeserving of deals.
