He's trying to do the job of the entire spine and is missing the punch through or defence from the pack. He's certainly one of our better players, and someone who we should have/should be building a team around

Let's not forget there seems to be very little chance of staying up. As a championship player I feel we would struggle to get a better half. We are not going to get a Brodie Croft to come and sign for us to play in that league

Bit of a sinking feeling for me this evening but I hope I’m proved wrong and I’ll happily cheer him on while ever he wears the shirt.

3 years though

We had one on the front foot camped on the hull line most of the first half, I've nothing against his commitment and effort but can he win us games, or can our current style of play make him win us games.

Agree ,think any decent 7 would struggle with Gaskill and Hood as the rest of the spine..As said, it worries me that a coach who as not one a game all season, is making decisions for next year .

He is not the general that we need but he needs others around him to give us attacking options.

He is ploughing a furrow on his own. The only attacking option we have ( Jowiit when fit). The opposition have only one player to stop
He desperately needs someone to play alongside who offers other atting options.
Pleased he has signed an extension.

Honestly I don't get some on here.
We've had weeks of being told the end is nigh and we'll lose all our players, then every player mentioned by the poorest of Internet sites as possible transfers are killing the club yet they now sign one of our best players and he isn't good enough.

If we go down he'd be the best 7 in the league. If we stay up he'll be consistency for the squad, clearly passionate about the team and a world class goal kicker.

While I agree about the people saying the transfers out are killing the club and then saying he’s not good enough are double standards I’m not in that camp.


I remain optimistic for avoiding the relegation but I still don’t think he’s good enough.

I'm pretty sure the 3 years will have been the thing that swung the deal.

To be honest i doubt he had mountains of offers in the table either.

He signed for Leeds yesterday ya know, but changed his mind today...

Think this is a strong signing for the club. What other 7’s of his calibre or better then him are we going to seriously attract. No player will go near us with a barge pole at the minute, so him committing to us even though it looks likely we’re heading to the championship shows something about his commitment too. He’s a very good player who requires a solid half back partner. He’s had Gaskell, Smith and Langi all playing at the side of him this year, not to mention a multitude of different FB’s. I think this is a great realistic signing.
