judging by the HDM article it looks like Agar is leaving it up to Long regarding if he wants to play next season

the main concern i would have is whether we could actually get 10 consecutive games from him rather than 10+ games spread across the season should he pick up niggling injuries here and there. afterall an effective HB partnership needs consistency

I have always thought we should only retain one of Long or Horne but not both of them and IMO Horne is one who warrants another year or two

believe that when i see it. the guy couldnt cut it at leigh or halifax....

But played for New Zealand

He seems to have cut it at the NZ Warriors.

Let's give him a chance eh.

But the main point I am making is about the use of an overseas spot for an 'extra' playmaker we were arguably in less need of than replacement forwards. Hudds do have plenty of players for the 1,6,7,9 positions, but how many of those take up quota/non fed room?

Hopefully I'm wrong and we do have some British options lined up, I'm just saying that if we didn't already have it in hand at the time of signing Heremaia, it was a hell of a risk IMO.

surley its about what hes playing like now?, his cv and record isnt great but im not botherd really its about what hes playing like now and given the improvements hes made as a player over the last year potentailly he could get better.
he Will be a good player for us but we have to have a good forward lined up or we could be effected in the pack, theres plenty of young english forwards out there we just have to get the right 1 or 2
