I didn’t realise but he’s quite a tall and well built player by all accounts. Be interesting to see if he plays in second row or centre. He played better at second row for hull in the few games I watched him in 2024.
I do think though he could be a signing that could turn out a positive surprise. Sometimes new clubs and challenges can really make players.'"
I met him at the Shareholder meeting.
First think I noticed was that he looks quite young but has Thor standard muscle size.
Mat was saying he's quite a sprinter too but the thing I most remember was when I shook his hand he nearly broke mine....and I'm not a small guy.
The key will be for our rehab team to keep him fit but if they do I think he'll be great for us.
He said he wants to play centre but is happy to play SR when called on.

That sounds very interesting and when I saw a couple of games at Hull he was a very strong runner.
Good to have competition for places.
Can we fast forward to pre season now

| Not sure if anybody has seen Frances line up this weekend just gone.
Cozza played at second row. Adds another option. I was quite impressed by Cozza after he returned. He looked in very good shape and a high level of fitness.

| I'm not sure Walmsley, Hall or Hood will get 1-13. I recon Lino's numbers will add up to 7.

| I'd put good money on MM being 8 and not a SR number.

| If you don't include the 1-13 from that list you can still make a pretty good starting 13. Not often we have that level of quality cover!

Why do some people have the right edge down as 2/3?
That’s always been left edge as long as I can remember.
Hall played well in right centre at Cas that I saw last season so can see him remaining on right and Pratt remaining on the left where he played almost every game.
I think Walmsley and Hall will make a good partnership personally..
Though I do think that’s close.
1. Jowitt
2. Johnstone
3. Pratt
4. Hall
5. Walmsley
6. Trueman
7. Russell
8. Mckmeeken
9. Hood
10. Atoni
11. Vagana
12. Storton
13. Pitts
14. Doyle
15. Rodwell
16. Uele
17. Niketemo
18. Griffin
19. Bain
20. Cozza
21. Scott
22. Russell
23. Roarke
24. Lawford
25. Lino
26. Booth
27. Smith
28. Croft
29. Lingard
30. Delaney

I can see Storton and Vagana starting SR with Nikotemo and Griffin bench impact second row.

Right edge is 3 and 2. In the modern game people play different positions but historically right wing is 2.
Think of Fletch scoring in the semi final on the right wing, wearing 2.
Or Neil Fox at left centre wearing 4.
I don't think it's logical but that's what it is

| Although I like Hall, Scott is better on the right in my opinion.

| I think Scott and Pratt will be our starting centres Hall will be back up alongside Croft. If we pick up injuries in the forwards Scott will move into the second row
