Hampshire and Gaskell are essentially the same player, they can cover a variety of positions so I would anticipate Trinity won't need two players like that. Walker has been poor so ought to be let go. Jowitt has been excellent aside from a substandard game against Cas. Will he stick around to play second fiddle again. Chances are we'll end up with Gaskell and Walker.

Spends most off his time injured so the real problem will be team continuity which is what Huddersfield know, all too well,
Does this mean walker - full back is not re-read signed ?

I more or less see him as a direct replacement for a Walker.

He can cover 1,6,7 so all considered it’s not a bad signing. Will be useful for the squad.

Not sure he will be a starter. Think Jowitt would remain starting full back if we sign him back up (I hope).

Absolutely no change he’s signing to be a back up. And given we’ve apparently outbid other teams i doubt we see him as that either.

I’m not sure this is a good move by Trinity, he has been injury prone, and often goes missing. Didn’t do a lot for Giants tonight as they lost to Salford.

I believe it was only one team. I doubt it will be an exceptional contract. We will have to wait and see how our squad looks for 2022 after the signings and re signings to get a better idea.

More competition isn’t a bad thing. Imo Jowitt is the better player of the two and at 24 his best years will be coming up. I do hope we sign up Max but we will just have to see.

Salford & Hull KR were in for him and he turned down a new contract at Huddersfield. If i was Jowitt i’d be off to be honest.

What a mediocre club the MIGHTY TRIN GETTING excited by Lee Gaskell what have we become...

If true, he's not coming to play back up and after CC named Max for the error, it seems that he's trying to make it impossible for Max to stay, then when he leaves, he'll say they offered him a contract and he turned it down, what else could we do?
Another classic way of deflecting the blame from himself.
Swapping a 24 year old for a 31 year old sounds about right at the moment, the way the club is going.
We'll be signing LMS next.

Could be a shrewd signing. A skilful player who will give us other options on attack . Been involved in the game for for over 50 years in various capacities and am yet to be convinced about Jowitt. To me he is average when compared to other regular Superleague fullbacks.
As for comparison with Trinity full backs of the past he is nowhere near Metcalfe, Round, Cooper , Wraith, Sheard, Box , Spencer or Holland.

Must say I like gaskill so think it’s a good signing

However …….
I’d be gutted if he’s being signed to replace max though at fb

Don’t see him at LF

We’ve already got Rocky to cover half’s so essentially it feels like he’s either replacing Max or Rocky

Who are both players that deserve a starting spot

So while I like gaskill I do feel he’s a bit square peg in round hole for us

If he has signed then if he spends more time on the pitch than off it he will be a good signing.

He will be an injury prone 31 year old when he starts playing with us.

One of those players you hate playing against but suddenly becomes when you sign him.

If you saw those players as you probably did, and I did, you’d know that MJ has attacking flair we haven’t seen since the days of Cooper .
To say he’s nowhere near Box, Spencer or Holland is an insult to him, and actually inaccurate-he will be better than all three of those.
as somebody else has said MJ’s best years are to come and he’s obviously trinity through and through otherwise, after the way he’s been treated by officials at trinity and supporters like you he’d have left ages ago.
